Crash when adding color from color palette to gradient

[deepblue]

Hello,

I somehow have the impression that errors that were fixed in one version are present again in the next update. How can that be?

If I draw a rectangle in Affinity Designer Beta 2.5.0 (2437) and create a color gradient in this rectangle, it works without any problems. But if I select a color on the color palette and drag this color into the gradient, Affinity Designer crashes completely.

Hello,

I just tried out the current Affinity Designer Beta 2.5.0 (2449), but unfortunately the error I described in the first post has not yet been fixed.

It's a shame, I was actually really looking forward to the next update. =(

Unfortunately, the error has not been fixed in the current beta version of Affinity Designer 2.6.0. (3058). See my video in the attachment

Since the error is still present in the current beta version of Affinity Designer and has not yet been fixed, I would be very happy if this was forwarded to the developers.

 They say to tag the info bot when an issue is still present.@Affinity Info Bot This bug is still present in RC1.

Thanks for the tag. I can reproduce a crash following the video, it's a slightly different recipe to what we had logged and fixed, I've had to repeat dragging onto the nodes to get it, but did reproduce it.

I'll get this logged
