Dock Icon Behavior Bug

[TonyO]

I am experiencing a quirk where when the main window of Affinity designer is minimized, clicking the dock icon doesn't return the application to the screen. It leaves it minimized, and it's the only app on Mac OS that seems to have this behavior.

I know every install of macOS comes with its own quirks, so it might just be affecting me, does anyone else notice this?

Fairly sure this has been reported already.

Yes, this is a known issue. You have to click the minimized icon and not the app icon.

The issue "Application (running) doesn't maximize when we click the icon on the dock" (REF: AFP-4836) has been fixed by the developers in internal build "2.2.0.1857".
This fix should soon be available as a customer beta and is planned for inclusion in the next customer release.
Customer beta builds are announced here and you can participate by following these instructions.
If you still experience this problem once you are using that build version (or later) please reply to this thread including @Serif Info Bot to notify us.

For what it's worth, I can at least confirm this resolved in the Photo 2.2 beta.
