New pic from selection 2px greater than selection

[drde]

I am using Affinity Photo 2.5.2 on windows and was trying to resize and cut a picture. Original picture is a png of 7424 px  x 11315 px and i want a format of 1080 px  x 2340 px. So i went to document - change size to a height of 2350. Then i did square selection and entered the size 1080x2340 in the selection box (here: Transformieren) and then I copied it and did New from selection. The resulting document then has 1082x2342 pixels! Why? What did i do wrong lol.

The original pic you can find here: https://hubblesite.org/contents/media/images/2023/012/01GWQFKJJE8VR2XVC09G43E9FR?Collection=Hubble Favorites

Suggestion: check your application Settings, User Interface, where you can specify the number of Decimal Places the application will display. Increase the number for Pixels to at least 3. 

Then, perform your process again, and in the Transform panel see what numbers (X,Y,B,H) you have before the transformation.

Thanks for your suggestion, I tried that. I only see a change for the first resizing step, otherwise it is still the same. It seems while doing a new picture from clipboard affinity adds 1pixel at each side.

I suspect that before the New From Clipboard the selection you copy is not an integer size or is not on integer pixel locations. That will end up adding additional pixels. 

So that's what you need to look at (and show us).

Yes but as far as i know the selection size (in the transform dialog) should be an integer and has no decimal places. And logically it would only add 1px and not two.

But ok, let's try again, see pics.
