Designer1 Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 The thickness of the contour cannot be made thicker! Neither entering a number nor moving the symbol for the contour thickness works. I have Windows 11. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gremriel Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Works for me. The only thing that doesn't work, is holding Alt to make a clone and apply contour, which I reported immediately after launch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff EmT Posted December 20, 2022 Staff Share Posted December 20, 2022 Hi @Designer1 Is the Radius box greyed out or can you enter a figure but it makes no visual change? Could you send me a screen recording of this issue in action?

GRAFKOM Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 I confirm. It is not possible to work in this version. Is it possible to roll back to 2.0.0. In the windows 11 version, you cannot set a different value by scrolling the mouse over the line thickness field. Also, entering values manually does not make the changes correctly. It does not work in all units: be it mm, m, px and others. Even though I enter, for example, 5mm on the keyboard and confirm with Enter, a completely different random value is entered. It is not possible to work in this version. No one at Serif saw this before the full release? It also doesn't work in Publisher and Photo.

Staff EmT Posted December 20, 2022 Staff Share Posted December 20, 2022 Hi @GRAFKOM Just for clarification do you mean the issue occurs with the Stroke Width in the Stroke panel or is this occurring when setting the width of a Contour using the Contour tool? If you have purchased the app through the Affinity Store then you can re-install Designer 2.0.0 from this link here.

GRAFKOM Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 It's about the stroke panel. And if it's important, I have Show Lines in Points unchecked in preferences, because in my work I use the value in mm in 99%. The Contour tool works fine.

Staff EmT Posted December 20, 2022 Staff Share Posted December 20, 2022 Thanks @GRAFKOM I've passed this over to the devs for investigation. I can confirm the issue does not occur when Show Lines in Points is enabled or your Document Units are set to Points.

AlainP Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Here everything works fine except "miter" which doesn't change anything. But mouse wheel scrolling works. But whatever the value nothing changes. EDIT: I had Show lines in Points enabled. When it's disable it stop working. Mouse wheel only makes it toggle from 0mm to the max it was originally set to, manually entering the value translate from points to mm.

parusdesign Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Can confirm that this issue happens, Windows 10 Designer V2 2.0.3. Just updated and cannot work due to this. I mean, guys, come on, to release a patch with such a glitch is just embarrassing. None of this happened in V1, I feel like V2 brings new things to the table but breaks a lot of previously established things. And I mean a lot. And new features are rarely useful due to the lack of things (like, for example, snapping to grid and guides in Mesh warping, making it impossible to be precise and pixel-perfect). I felt like before Affinity used to roll out features inspired by Adobe, but made better and more user-friendly. Now it's like they are in pre-production but are being added in official releases. Beginning to really wonder if buying V2 was a good decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4dimage Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 @parusdesign Forget about the new features because some of them are still bugy. The bad news is that now core functions that worked for years with v1 are affected too. I would recommend to NOT use v2 in production. Unfortunately it’s unpredictable what core functions will be broken with the next updates. The current v1.10.6 is stable enough to work with - if you have one… Quote Hardware: Windows 10 Pro for Workstations (22H2, build 19045.3208, Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.19041.1000.0), 8 core Intel(R) Xeon(R) W-2145 CPU @ 3.70GHz, 64 GB RAM, NVIDIA Quadro P4000 (driver 528.89), 2 x 1GB SSD. 1 Display set to native 2560 x 1440.

chessboard Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 To be fair: If the option "show lines in points" is enabled, you can still enter the value in millimeters in the input field for the line width, if you add the unit "mm" to the numerical value. It's just that you can no longer read the value in millimeters, but only in points. However, it is no problem to set a line to a line width of, for example, 10mm. I just realized that I have never changed the units in the fields to mm in version 1, but have always worked with pt. SrPx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debraspicher Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 I don't have "Show lines in points" on and I have not had issues with adjusting stroke in pixels in V2. I don't know if this is helpful for staff, but just sharing here it is working fine.
