Kyri Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Hello, I am not sure if this is a bug or there is a way to fix this let me know. I use freehand selection tool to crop a lot and the cropping takes a while, on V1 when i would click elsewhere or minimized the affinity window the progress of the Polygonal mode would remain in place and i would continue afterwards, but in V2 if i click anywhere outside the area of the image it just dissapears and i lose all progress.

walt.farrell Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 I'm with @Callum on this one. Photo 2.1.1 and 1.10 seem to work the same, for me. Here's a 2.1.1 recording. I'm not sure what might be different between our systems to cause mine to work where yours fails.

Kyri Posted August 14, 2023 Author Share Posted August 14, 2023 @walt.farrell Hello, thank you for sharing your prespective, does anything happen if you minimize the entire Affinity window? This also causes the progress of the tool to dissapear in V2 and not in V1. Additionally id like to mention that this behavior doesn't only happen on my personal system, but also my work laptop, so it might be more than just the system, maybe something in settings im not aware of?

But in V1 it autocloses the selection at the image boundaries in some fairly unpredictable way, so I do not consider it a usable function while trying to do a freehand polygonal selection. And I cannot think of any situation in which I would want to minimize the window while I'm in the middle of doing a selection.

prophet Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 I think "minimize" is the wrong term here. I can see that the OP uses the scroll bars to shift the image while selecting. In one instance, the selection process remains active, in the other it doesn't. walt.farrell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyri Posted August 14, 2023 Author Share Posted August 14, 2023 @walt.farrell I do detailed layer cropping for animations, so a selection can take from 10 to even 15 minutes depending on object, i take breaks in this case and i switch windows and what not, or a lot of times i need to look at something else or check notifications from elsewhere, which also require me to switch windows. And as il mention below, maybe you haven't tried using the scroll bars? Lots of times a lot of times i zoom in with ctrl + Scroll and need to move around with them for a detailed selection, but again, progress dissapears. Regardless, it is something that is not happening in V1, and some change in V2 is causing this to occur which stops me from using it, and it is unfortunate as i just bought V2. @prophetThank you, that is exactly what i am trying to show, just using the scroll bars cause the process to dissapear in V2, which is very odd. walt.farrell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
