4dimage Posted May 31, 2024 Posted May 31, 2024 It seems that this error does not appear in beta 2.5.2.2486, even with settings OpenCL on. My web Layout has several linked bitmaps and Affinity Designer vector files. Since release 2.5.0 in over 50% of the time Publisher crashes when zoomin into the page by CTRL + mouse wheel. Unfortunately there are no actual crash reports availlable. There seems to be an issue with the interlaced image preview in the workspace. At the moment of freezing some parts (blocks) of the image boxes are loaded "highres", others are still lowres. The behaviour is reproduceable wih OpenCL on. If i turn of settings -> performance -> OpenCL ... the error does not longer happen in v2.5.0. I will continue working with OpenCL off.

4dimage Posted June 1, 2024 Author Posted June 1, 2024 I was too quick to celebrate 😞 Publisher now almost always freezes when zooming in, even though I have deactivated OpenCL. Especially when I zoom in on the images/logos in the upper part of the layout with CTRL + mouse wheel. This layout is really not that complex! The beta 2.5.2.2486 still doesn't seem to show this error. Even with OpenCL active. You can't work like that! Please bring the fixes from the last beta quickly as a regular release. I don't like starting to do my regular daily work with beta versions 😐 Quote Hardware: Windows 11 Pro (24H2, build 26100.3775, Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.26100.66.0), Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-14900K, 24 Core@3.20 GHz, 128 GB RAM, NVIDIA RTX A4000 (16GB VRAM, driver 551.61), 1TB + 2TB SSD. 1 Display set to native 2560 x 1440.

4dimage Posted June 5, 2024 Author Posted June 5, 2024 @Dan C Problem solved in retail 2.5.2 😁 There is no more freezing when zooming in/out fast with CTRL + mousewheel. No matter if OpenCL on or of. This applies to all three apps. Thanks 👍 Dan C 1 Quote Hardware: Windows 11 Pro (24H2, build 26100.3775, Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.26100.66.0), Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-14900K, 24 Core@3.20 GHz, 128 GB RAM, NVIDIA RTX A4000 (16GB VRAM, driver 551.61), 1TB + 2TB SSD. 1 Display set to native 2560 x 1440.
