edw3cats Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 (edit) Affinity Designer 2.4.1 Replicate: 1. On an existing document with existing Image Placement Policy as Embed 2. Place image and .afdesign embeds in document, save (and close maybe) 3. Open file 4. Change File > Document Setup > Image Placement Policy to Prefer Linked 5. Save document, will cause save error (not crash) 6. Change Image Placement Policy back to Prefer Embed 7. Save document, will cause save error. Document can no longer be saved. (Edit) Close document, and reopen losing any changes made, document can be saved from that save point, but not once Image Placement Policy has been changed.

Hangman Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 I'm not seeing this on macOS so it's possibly a Windows-specific issue... Where are your files located... internal Hard Drive, external Hard Drive or in the Cloud?

edw3cats Posted April 3 Author Share Posted April 3 3 minutes ago, Ron P. said: I can't replicate this using Windows.. Yeah actually I can't replicate it either, I thought maybe the embedded images in the file system were moved or deleted, I just tried creating a new file and deleting the image. Saving is fine. Now I remember the file was originally Affinity Designer version 1 that was converted to version 2 upon opening. In that case that would be a very edge case situation.

Staff Dan C Posted April 5 Staff Share Posted April 5 Thanks for your report @edw3cats! I've tried replicating this using all V2 documents, and a V1 document converted for use in V2 and I'm equally unable to reproduce this at this time. It's certainly possible that this is an edge case relating to your original file and should hopefully not occur again - but if you do find a consistent workflow to trigger this issue, please do let us know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
