Collapsed Nesting Anchors Reset/Expand Every Time They Are Edited


Recommended Posts

Hello! I'm very much loving Affinity Publisher. I am currently working on a rather large book (for a tabletop RPG) which requires tons of anchors and nesting in order to let players and GMs look up certain topics very quickly with PDF bookmarks. I actually have no problem with the way anchors are set up, except that every time I interact with the anchors panel, any collapsed "nests" or subheadings re-expand with every. Single. Action. So, in order to drag around and place the many anchors I'm dealing with, I need to close at least five headings with every edit. And, to make it worse, I can't scroll while holding on to an anchor I'm looking to place, so I have to do this awkward dance where I grab it, place it further up into a nest, collapse all the nests again except the relevant two, grab it, and sometimes repeat...

This isn't a deal-breaker by any means, but it is very impactful to my workflow and kind of annoying sometimes. I think this feature could use a bit of polish! Just not re-expanding the tabs and/or allowing scrolling while holding onto anchors in the panel would do wonders here.

Thanks so much for all of your hard work!
