Silas Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Hi there, I'm on a Mac running macOS 13.4 (Ventura) and Designer 2.1.1 Apologies if this is a repeat question. I have searched the fora for this and I see similar questions but nothing that describes what I am seeing. For a long time now, using AD version 1, I have been able to copy art boards, groups and even a collection of layers and then simply paste them into another application such as Pages or even Slack and magically get a portable image that works everywhere. I really had become quite accustomed to this miracle. So when I updated both applications recently I was horrified to discover that now what I get is SVG code. In order to get similar behaviour I have to create a new document from the clipboard in Preview and copy from there before pasting. I see from the bug fixes that there were some changes to the way copy/paste is handled so I am wondering ... Is anybody else hampered by this change? Is there something I have overlooked? Is there a configuration somewhere that I can tweak? I appreciate any information you can offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan C Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Hi @Silas, Sorry to hear you're having trouble! It sounds as though you may have the following option enabled, under Affinity Designer 2 > Settings > General: If you disable this option, does this now work as you'd expect please?
