amyas Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Small Gap Between Objects is Pretty Annoying Turned on: Force Pixel Alignment Move by Whole Pixels Than snapped two objects, I even checked Transform Panel to make sure every pixel is aligned, but I still got this gap on screen. After I "Add" these object together, that small gap still won't go away! HELP!!!! Quote
Staff MEB Posted December 6, 2015 Staff Posted December 6, 2015 Hi amyas, That's related with the way Affinity renders the elements on screen. At certain zoom levels it may disappear, while in others it may be visible. In any case It doesn't affect the output (export) in any way. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software

I know sometimes the anti aliasing algorithm can cause the display problem and zoom can make them disappear, but even after "Union" the two shapes together, there's still a line between them ( a real one! ): If I use the Node Tool, I can even edit that line!

Staff MEB Posted December 6, 2015 Staff Posted December 6, 2015 Hi amyas, That's probably because the rectangles (nodes) weren't perfectly aligned. Which version are you using, the Mac App Store version or the Beta? Can you attach your file here so i can take a look? Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software
amyas Posted December 6, 2015 Author Posted December 6, 2015 Sorry for the delay, I'm in GTM 8, so, you know... I created the elements in the latest Beta version 1.3.5.15; I copied the shape to the MAS version Designer, the boolean Union still failed to work. However, after I copy the shape to Illustrator then Union them, no gaps anymore. Is this a bug? Original File: UI.afdesign Quote
amyas Posted December 6, 2015 Author Posted December 6, 2015 Oops, I didn't notice the 1.3.5.18 is out... but tested just now, the problem remains unsolved. Quote
Signguy Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Looks like a bug to me. If you rotate all three shapes 90º so that they are vertical and then use the add boolean, then the shapes join fine. You can then rotate them back. It doesn't work for any other angle. Quote
Staff MEB Posted December 7, 2015 Staff Posted December 7, 2015 Hi amyas, Thanks for the file. Seems there's some issues joining object with overlapping boundaries. I've logged this to be looked at. Thanks for your report. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software
