Darner Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Hi Affinity. Issues with using "add" in Geometry with multiple even squares Looks like working ok sometimes before not moved, rotated or resized shape. As soon as any of above adjustments, the "add" geometry becomes uneven and leaves gaps. For some processes, this may be relevant issue and cause unnecessary work. Writing this so Affinity can fix the bug. Not looking for feedback in here on "how to fix the gaps after combined squares". I was sold on "...100 percent accurate geometry". Often this is not the case unfortunately. Earlier mentioned different issues with lack in accuracy on basic snapping and geometry. Not snapping on skewed lines with shapes, sometimes only with the move tool etc. Hope you guys soon can have an in depth look at the accuracy issues, like Geometry and snap not working as it should. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darner Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 Hi. Has also been another similar accuracy issue with Affinity Designer Mac. When doing "Substract" on simple shapes, it creates a gap / overlap. With "Substract" and "Option" for Compound shape, even more gap / overlap. Before it is accurate. This issue seems to occur most kinds of shapes, and visible more when you zoom in. Visually normally not a big issue for one time use, but when working with Geometry and highly accurate content being adapted, outlined, filled etc, it can create issues. Hope you soon get a look at accuracy issues Affinity Designer Mac. When can it be expected to see some sort of changes, and when is the next Designer update? Thanks.

Darner Posted August 7, 2022 Author Share Posted August 7, 2022 Another accuracy issue on "Geometry" in Affinity Designer Mac. Used "Divide" on simple circle objects, see attached pictures before and after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Dan C Posted August 8, 2022 Staff Share Posted August 8, 2022 Many thanks for the further issues reported - I've been able to replicate the subtraction issue and the divide issue is already logged with our developers - so I'll be sure to log/bump these issues, as required On 8/5/2022 at 5:06 PM, Darner said: When can it be expected to see some sort of changes, and when is the next Designer update? Thanks. Unfortunately we don't currently have an ETA for our next Affinity update at this time, though our head of QA has confirmed; Quote we are focussing our efforts on a major release (new features and fixes) and consequently have not done any minor patches for a long time We hope to have more information to share shortly!

Darner Posted August 8, 2022 Author Share Posted August 8, 2022 Thank you for the quick response, and look forward to the major release! I also posted a long list of bugs / features in general for AD which perhaps could be relevant for next release, but can't find it in the activity. Perhaps of interest if you have it stored somewhere. Good luck with the dev! Dan C 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
