Msunagi Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 I picked up affinity designer recently and I noticed that when selecting a brush, if you slightly move your mouse/pen even for 1 pixel it will NOT select the brush you wanted but still highlight the brush with that blue frame. Since you moved it a tiny bit, it will recognize the command as if you were trying to move the brush itself, and your stroke will behave as the previous brush. This happened to me countless times already, you have to be really precise not to move your pen... it's very annoying. The attached image shows the behaviour. First I drew a line using the first brush, then I selected the bottom brush but moved a little bit while selecting and the software registered as I was dragging it and outlined this brush, but the current brush did not change as my second stroke is still my first brush.

Aammppaa Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 For the record, the same thing happens with the Swatches panel. A small movement while clicking highlights the swatch colour as if it is selected, but the inkwell still shows the previous colour. I agree that this is frustrating!

I'm also seeing this behaviour on the swatches so i've added this info onto the logged issue. Aammppaa and Msunagi 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
