Select > Invert Pixel Selection bug with artboards


etx

Recommended Posts

MacOS Ventura 13.2 on a Mac Pro

Hardware Accel is enable

A friend of mine is having the same issue on a MacBook Pro M1 with Monterey

Example video attached

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create a New Document
  2. Draw one Artboard out 
  3. Clone the first Artboard to make a second one
  4. Switch to the Pixel Persona
  5. Use any Marquee selection tool to draw a selection on the first artboard
  6. Now from the menu select Selection > Invert Pixel Selection
  7. The marquee selection should be properly inverted
  8. Marquee select on the second (cloned) artboard
  9. Select Selection > Invert Pixel Selection
  10. The marquee selection is not correctly inverted and the entire first artboard becomes selected and shows the marching ants

I can confirm this is happening in both V1 and V2 of Designer regardless of whether the first Artboard is cloned or created from scratch using the Artboard tool and if you have more than two artboards, regardless of which Artboard you draw the marquee selection on, inverting it always results in an inverted selection on the last Artboard.

Probably this known bug, a holdover from V1: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/search/&tags=AFD-5459
