Yes I see. But from your screenshots, only the "result" can be known, not the "cause" why it happens.

We need the Affinity document (AFDESIGN, AFPHOTO, AFPUB) itself to see if we can recreate the problem for ourselves and try and see what’s going wrong.

If you don’t want to share the whole document then a document containing just the layer with the edges that are being changed might be a good start.

Thanks for supplying the document.

Within the first few seconds of opening it I could see that, without exporting, the edges change when I zoom in and out, so that’s not a good start. I don’t know yet why that might happen.

It's a Cloud shape, and for me it displays exactly as it is exported.

Ah, it’s because you have pushed the Stroke width on the Cloud Layer so high that it is ‘overlapping itself’.

Interesting, but I’ll need to wait until later today to look at it! The OP didn’t mention that it’s an AD2 file, and I only have AD version 1 here.

ive change cloud shape to curves and still nothing 

Change Cloud shape to Star shape - no Stroke, only Fill.

To fix the problem you can probably make the same design using a Cloud shape geometrically subtracted from a Polygon shape instead.

I thought @Frozner didn’t want rounded edges! Why use a Cloud shape at all?

Edit: Having watched your video, I now see what you mean.

Based on my understanding of the desired outcome, that’s what I would do.

The software may be calculating the rasterised version ‘from a certain zoom level’

It is evidently an effect of the Mipmaps technique.

They have used the Cloud shape to make two different things at the same time: the pointed edges and the inner ‘gaps’.
Just using the Star tool wouldn’t get them both things.

Thanks, Garry. I edited my previous post while you were typing!

It's clear that two different parts of the design need to be solved in two different ways - anyway, if I need a sharply jagged edge, I'll use a Star shape, if I need internal ribbing, I'll use a Cog shape, for example.
