Staff Patrick Connor Posted December 7, 2022 Staff Share Posted December 7, 2022 Status: Beta Purpose: Fixes and Updates Requirements: Licensed Affinity Photo 2 (registered to an Affinity ID account) Windows Store: Not Submitted Download: MSIX Download Auto-update: Not Available --- We are pleased to announce that the first Affinity Photo 2 Customer Beta 2.0.3.1670 is now available as a download from the link above. Please note: We are working on an equivalent MSI/EXE installer to ALSO be available before the time this 2.0.3.x beta cycle finishes, and becomes a public release. This beta is an update to the 2.0.0 version recently released to all customers and will form the basis of our first patch for 2.0.0. We recommend that you use this beta in preference to the release version if you are affected by any of the issues listed below. If this is your first time using a customer beta of an Affinity app, it’s worth noting that the beta will install as a separate app - alongside your store version. They will not interfere with each other at all and you can continue to use the store version for critical work without worry. --- New Document: Custom Document Preset order is not retained between app sessions Placed documents with bleed fail to render the top and left side correctly Quotes can be incorrectly put on newlines and cause text to render differently compared to V1 Can't place image when recording a macro in Photo V2 V2 opens raw files slower than V1 Running a V1 Macro that uses 'Add Image' (Place) crashes app - also applies to Batch Processing Importing .JPG and .TIFF files with Keywords only displays the last keyword in the Metadata panel Straightening in the Develop Persona offsets the image from the canvas entirely, until developed or crashes Exclusion blend mode causing unexpected results on 16bit file layers with blown highlights Transform Panel- Differences in panel size when switching between Curve strokes and expanded objects Tone Mapping Preset options missing.

Are you referring to the Export Persona instead perhaps? I don't have perfect vision, in fact in old age is way worse, but I'm not seeing anything different. I opened V2 and V2 Beta up at the same time, and compared the Export Persona. I don't know what I'm missing here. I also compared the File>Export dialogs.

True, but it is a visible one you can verify (as opposed to "no changes"). Serif generally haven't provided specific lists of bug numbers, though I've noticed them posting to the topics that generated the tracking tags to indicate when something is fixed. If they continue doing that it will provide a good way for users who have experienced those problems to know.
