Need Help Getting Work Back due to affinity bug

[Sponix]

Hi,

Does anyone know what happened?

I pressed "convert to curves", on an illustration I was working on. And then, my work just disappeared. 

I tried to go revert it, and even relaunched Affinity Designer. Nothing.

Hopefully, you can help, thanks!

Did you save your document?

If yes, can you upload it to the forum?

Hi @Sponix,

I cannot tell you what happened. Just a more general suggestion that may not help in the current situation. If something like this happens first thing to do is to try 'undo' (menu 'Edit > Undo' or shortcut CTRL+z). In most cases this should recover something like this.

You can also look at the history panel ('Window > History' in version 2 apps) and click on a step before convert to curves.

Sometimes things like a loss of artwork happens. In that case it is easier to start over again.

Sorry, if this is not of real help but I hope it helps you in future cases.

Do you mean that Affinity Designer quit suddenly, that the content of your document vanished, or that the document itself vanished, leaving nothing besides the app's interface visible?
