KC... Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 I have a multi-artboard document (one of my main design workspaces) which when elements are dragged to it from the Assets panel, these then display as having zero width or height, sometimes with infinite corresponding width or height, or with corresponding zero width / height. These elements & asset category were created alongside a previous copy of this document (in v1.8). What you now see on any of the artboards is either just a dot (zero height / width), or a vertical or horizontal infinite line (zero height or width coupled with infinite height / width). As I say, this document was created in v1.8 & I'm now on v1.9. And this issue seems to be just related to this older document, because if I create a new doc (in Designer v1.9.1.979), then it all behaves normally & an element copy is created with the correct dimensions etc. Can anyone say what's going on with this? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted March 3, 2021 Staff Share Posted March 3, 2021 Hi KC, This is something we're unfortunately aware of and happens when content is dragged onto an artboard that has been scaled. However it has been fixed by development in the 1.9.2.1 beta which is available. In this instance it is preferable to use this over 1.9.1, however the two can be run side by side.

KC... Posted March 3, 2021 Author Share Posted March 3, 2021 Sean, thanks for your quick reply to this. Unfortunately the link is for Mac & I'm on Windows... I see the Windows beta is still 1.9.1, is 1.9.2 available for Windows yet? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't currently have an eta for a Windows beta but I don''t expect it to be too far away. In the meantime as a workaround if you drag the asset on to the pasteboard outside of an artboard you should be able to then drag it over without encountering the scaling you're seeing. As I said this will happen if an artboard has been resized using the Move Tool - so that would likely be why you couldn't reproduce it on a new document.
