ygoe Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 I've just set up my new computer, this time with Windows 11 instead of 10. Affinity Designer (and the rest of the suite) is installed in the current version 2.1.1. Then I've noticed that Designer crashes more often than before. It hasn't done that in a year at least. Now it was already twice in two days. Today I've drawn a rectangle and selected the area measure tool. Then I wanted to resize the rectangle and selected the Select tool. That didn't react and a few seconds later the window disappeared. IIRC, yesterday, I also used the area measure tool. There might be a critical bug in that.

ygoe Posted August 28, 2023 Author Share Posted August 28, 2023 Third crash, second today. It's always the same: Draw, move and resize a rectangle Switch to the area measure tool (Switch to the calculator app and back) Select the Selection tool again to resize the rectangle The tool cannot be selected anymore. The UI is already frozen and will disappear a few seconds after. There must be a pattern to this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan C Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Hi ygoe, Are you able to recreate this after a fresh reboot and a new document? Could you send us a crash report using the following guide. Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ygoe Posted August 29, 2023 Author Share Posted August 29, 2023 I cannot even recreate the crash in my current document. It seems that after one or two crashes, it works for a while. I'll keep an eye on it. Will be doing this more often in the next days again. Hope the submitted reports help you. Dan C 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ygoe Posted September 7, 2023 Author Share Posted September 7, 2023 It's happening again. The area measure tool definitely has serious issues. Always save your document before activating the area measure tool! It will likely crash and you lose most changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan C Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Hi ygoe, did you manage to get a crash report file for us to take a look at as per my previous message? Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ygoe Posted September 7, 2023 Author Share Posted September 7, 2023 This is really annoying. Can I use an older version that still works? I need to use this measurement tool a lot now. New situation: Select an object to measure Select the area measure tool Zoom in with Ctrl+MouseWheel → Crash No need to leave the measure tool, the bug happens with the tool active. New log files attached. attachment_Log.txt b0133e09-59e7-4a97-a58c-b445b015abfb.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
