Thank you, that is to be expected at the moment. Unfortunately that is the best we have as for now we are just avoiding the crash. This post by Unsplash explains what has happened, and we will have to modify our code to adjust for it, which has not yet been done. myclay, 78deluxe, PaulAffinity and 1 other 4 Patrick Connor Serif Europe Ltd Latest V2 releases on each platform Help make our apps better by joining our beta program!

Mark Ingram Posted March 12, 2021 Author Posted March 12, 2021 Really those shortcuts are designed for Wacom tablets or similar. We already have shortcuts for zoom configured by default.

Perhaps I am doing something wrong. Tried adding shift+F3 (F15) to one of my Wacom buttons as well as resetted my tablet shortcuts, but I can't seem to get it to work. What am I doing wrong?

If I use Shitf+F1 (for example) as a keyboard shortcut, Affinity sees it as Shift+F1 not F13. So perhaps that approach is not applicable with the Affinity applications. -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

Yes, I think you'll need a "physical" F15 | F16 key (or for Wacom to send it via hardware).
Uncle Mez Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 This build is fantastic and work faster, no crash or reccurent bug like some previous builds (not all of them). I thank the team and please guys, make the next build to be similar or better than this one in terms of stability even though we can;t expect any Dev build to be stable in all points.

TEcHNOpls Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 Is this the same as .1035 or did you forget about Beta testers again? "I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK, I sleep all night, and I work all day..."

RichardMH Posted April 1, 2021 Posted April 1, 2021 (edited) After downloading 1.9.2.1035 I get this when I run the benchmark in the beta. Is it intentional? Just saw I didn't have acceleration on sorry. Edited April 1, 2021 by RichardMH oops
TheX4ever Posted April 1, 2021 Posted April 1, 2021 I also Downloaded 1.9.2.1035 and only get low GPU points (compared to older Benchmarks i saw in the Forum). The acceleration is turned on. AMD Ryzen 5900x 32GB RAM @ 3600MHz MSI RTX 3080
