CM0 Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Some of my artboards are broken. Not sure if this is related to update to 1.10, but had not noticed earlier. I found with some experimentation I can reproduce the result by simply duplicating the artboards. In the attached file, all artboards are identical, but they look different. Some look blank. If you start duplicating them, you will see that some will be distorted or blank. broken-perspective-filter.afpub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walt.farrell Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 If they had, there would be a response. Quick question: what application are you using? You've posted in Designer Bugs, but you've provided a Publisher file.

Staff MEB Posted August 20, 2021 Staff Share Posted August 20, 2021 Hi @CMO, This is happening because you are copy/pasting the text and nested filter to the other artboards and although they are copied to the new artboard, the grid/control of the perspective filter remains in the original artboard where it was copied from. You can check this if you select the text layer in the Layers panel of one of the artboards where it doesn't display (you should see the blue bounding box appearing on the canvas/artboard - the text itself remains invisible) then double-click the perspective filter layer nested to that text object in the Layers panel - if you look at the canvas now you should see the perspective/grid control over another artboard (the one from where the objects where originally copied from). I'm logging this to be looked at. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CM0 Posted August 20, 2021 Author Share Posted August 20, 2021 FYI, I didn't copy and paste the text and filter directly. I selected the artboard itself and duplicated the artboard. Thanks for looking into it. MEB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walt.farrell Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 5 minutes ago, MEB said: I'm logging this to be looked at. Thanks. It seems to me there have been a number of bugs that seem related to using multi-artboard documents in Photo (and possibly the Photo Persona of Publisher) that all seem to involve improper binding of effects, filters, Fill or Pixel layers to the right Artboard. That might be an area to focus some testing on.

CM0 Posted January 10, 2022 Author Share Posted January 10, 2022 Is there any update on this issue? I have not been able to find a work around. I have a lot of work using perspectives that I need to make new variations and there is no way to copy the original work. I can't do a pixel perfect new version as I have to redo the perspectives from scratch. This is very painful and time consuming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CM0 Posted January 13, 2022 Author Share Posted January 13, 2022 Note, this is broken everywhere, not just Artboards. I also can not properly create copies in photo. You can create one copy, but once you make further copies they also break. Is this issue being investigated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted January 13, 2022 Staff Share Posted January 13, 2022 Hi @CM0, Yes, we are aware this is broken when duplicating artboards and duplicating objects with the live perspective filter applied (in all apps). Both issues are logged/being investigated but i can't give you an eta for a fix. It depends entirely on management/development priorities, sorry.
