Resize document using DPI setting results in unexpected loss of resolution

[Sushifiend]

Using the latest Affinity Photo 2.5.3 on Windows 10, using the resize document menu item with resample selected, and then alternating between various DPI settings results in loss of pixels before OK button is pressed. It seems that Photo is applying the change internally every time you select a different DPI setting, so every time you change the setting it compounds the loss of resolution. I would expect only the last chosen DPI setting before pressing OK to take effect. If the user wishes to change the DPI setting again they ought to be expected to select the menu item (or shortcut) again. See attached screen capture video.

The issue can be reproduced on any image, loaded or generated in the application.

I half suspect that someone is going to claim that this is intentional behaviour, but if so it should not be.

Thanks,
Alex

It's very strange, indeed. But I don't think it could be by design: on my Mac, I can't reproduce it.

Hi @Sushifiend,

Thanks for reporting this.

We do already have this logged with the Developers to resolve.  

@OuftiThis is a Windows only issue, which is why you couldn't replicate it.

@stokerg Thanks for confirming. I did search the existing reports to see if it had been reported and I couldn't find anything matching so I made a new report.
