ezrgmlaaz8585 Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 Affinity crashes when selecting multiple objects, one being a text frame. Steps to reproduce (works reliably) : Select a text frame "entirely" (not editing it) Click near it, changing the tool for the text frame tool. (Why does Designer have a range this big to select text ??) Click again (doing a double click essentially). The program will freeze (as I have seen, it can recover on small files if changing the focus window to anything else). It must be closed using task manager, simply closing the app brings the close menu, but it cannot be interacted, all unsaved progress will be lost. bug.mp4 This is not an edge case bug, I produce it regularly when selecting multiple text by not clicking precisely inside the text frame. I am using the latest Affinity Designer 2 version (2.1.1.1847) on Windows 11. Works both with hardware acceleration on and off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Callum Posted September 16 Staff Share Posted September 16 Hi ezrgmlaaz8585, I'm not able to replicate this behaouir here at all I'm afraid and as far as I'm aware this isn't something that has been reported in the past if you reinstall the app does this issue persist? Thanks C Quote Please tag me using @ in your reply so I can be sure to respond ASAP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't help with the bug, but I have always wondered about this. It can be frustrating trying to select something adjacent. I find the target area of some other things, especially toggles and sliders in the FX tab, far too small when working at speed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezrgmlaaz8585 Posted September 20 Author Share Posted September 20 @Callum Affinity newest release, 2.2.0, seems to have resolved the issue (at least for me). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
