Can't select curve nodes using box drag selection in Publisher 2.0.0 on old .apub files.

Can't select curve nodes using box drag selection in Publisher 2.0.0 on old .apub files.

-Works fine with a new document in Publisher 2, 
-Works fine in standalone Designer using old .apub files

-Works fine with EMBEDDED curves (in a new tab)
-Box selecting any other in-document curve doesn't work with old .apub files

It doesn't seem to matter if the nodes are edited using the corner tool or not.

I'm on Windows 10

To update this thread with the progress we made on the other thread:

Marquee-selecting curve nodes doesn't work on any page other than "Page 1" or the Master page. If you rearrange a different page to be the top page / Page 1, marquee node select will work, but stops working on ALL the other pages. Seems it has nothing to do with V1 or V2 files.

Steps to reproduce from MikeTO:

1. Create a new document with at least two pages
2. On page 2, draw a quick path with a few nodes, it doesn't matter whether you draw straight lines or curves
3. Select the Node tool and try to marquee select nodes. Won't work.
4. Move the path to page 1. Now you can marquee select nodes

Hi @Rinyuu
This has been passed over to our developers for further investigation.

Yes. Multiple nodes can only be selected by click and drag on the first page. On other pages nothing is selected.

I am also experiencing this issue. I hope there is a fix soon.

It is also impossible to snap nodes to other nodes in Publisher 2

The first update is going to be a beast, I think. I just came across this problem. One of many.

I just got the 2.0.3 publisher 2 update, the nodes can all be selected but horizontal snapping (node to node) still doesn't work. Anyhow, thanks for the update!

Can confirm the same.

Thanks both, I've passed along your reports to the devs.

Hey all! I just updated to publisher 2! The issue with nodes not snapping to other nodes is a thing of the past...I'm ready to pitch for DTP work, the program being so functional. Thank you Affinity!
