Mirroring two lines mirrors around a far away axis

[ygoe]

Affinity Designer 2.1.0 on Windows

1. Draw two lines that are parallel to each other but shifted along their length
2. Select both lines
3. Mirror them in the direction of the lines (i.e. if the lines are vertical, mirror horizontal to swap left and right)

You'd expect that the two lines swap places, but they end up somewhere else. Looks like one of the two lines makes the mirror axis, not the middle between them.

Activating and setting the rotation centre cross marker has no effect on mirroring.

Seems to be restricted to two Horizontal or Vertical lines. Not happening if they are not Horizontal or Vertical. This is Mac OS 11.7

@ygoe Can you do a short screen recording showing your process, just so I can confirm.

When the lines are vertical, they mirror to the side. After rotating them to horizontal, I see the expected behaviour.

Now with Affinity Designer 2.3.0 on Windows 11.
