Corner Tool with Shapes: Sometimes Can't Select Corner Type


Recommended Posts

Program: Affinity Designer

Version: 2.1.1

OS : Windows

I'm noticing a randomly appearing issue where if I try to use the Corner Tool with a shape (Rectangle, Pentagon, Diamond, Triangle), I sometimes cannot select the corner type. This seems to be more likely to happen when I've created a new document and am trying to use the corner tool with a shape for the first time, but it doesn't always happen at that time. When this happens, it allows me to change the corner using the round corner type. A workaround is to click off the shape and then try again, which usually allows me to then select the corner type.

I've attached a file, although it is entirely possible it will work perfectly for you. Usually once it starts working it stays working for the rest of my session.

Not a showstopper, but I thought I'd mention it.

On selecting the corner tool all of my corner shapes were greyed out, as soon as I pulled the corner into the shape they all became came active. but the corner tool changes to the node tool, even if I edit the corner radius with the slider, it's like it gets knocked out of the tool instead of styaing on the tool until I select another tool I want to use.

I noticed the corner tool starts off at zero, so, logically there are no corner styles to define until you give the corner a dimension.
