NM_ Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 I started a simple design in Affinity Designer 2.0.0 (only and latest version) on Windows 11 Pro (latest updates, version 22H2) that does not allow the border of the item named “Main Panel” to be edited. I was forced to export the file to SVG to open it in Affinity Designer 1 to continue. The program hung for a bit while editing, and on relaunch asked for permission to submit crash reports that I approved. The problem file is attached. Thank you for your attention.

prophet Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 I was able to do all kinds of things to the stroke on my Mac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarryP Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 How are you changing the “border” of that layer? I can change the outline of the layer named “Main Panel” just fine in Windows 10, although I notice that the Opacity of that layer is set to 10% so that could be causing a problem if you are choosing a very light colour.

NM_ Posted December 16, 2022 Author Share Posted December 16, 2022 Thanks for the prompt response! I apologize for not being specific enough: Can you change the color of the outermost rectangle to solid black? I could change the stroke and color of all other shapes without problems, just not that of the outermost rectangle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prophet Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 As @GarryP mentioned, the opacity is set to 10%, so I believe it is black, just lighter than you expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NM_ Posted December 16, 2022 Author Share Posted December 16, 2022 Hmm, I see it as 100% and cannot change it at all. If I convert to SVG and open in Designer 1, it is 10% of course. Are you on macOS, iPadOS or Windows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NM_ Posted December 16, 2022 Author Share Posted December 16, 2022 P.S. Image attached. I made the stroke thicker to demonstrate. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NM_ Posted December 16, 2022 Author Share Posted December 16, 2022 Ah silly me, the artboard opacity was 10% - thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NM_ Posted December 16, 2022 Author Share Posted December 16, 2022 I meant layer opacity 🤪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
