AP crash on resize pixel art document

[Gianni Becattini]

It is almost systematic, even when the document is a simple pixel image. 

Conditions:

• AP 2.6.0
• iMac i9 with 64G RAM,
• Sequoia, updated

I upload a test file, but in my case it happens on many different files.

The document uses physical units, and when resized to pixels it shows fractional pixel size on y axis.

I would recommend to resize to pixel as units first and correct the fractional pixel size, before using pixel art resize.

On Desktop, it might get rounded up automatically during resize.

Never the less, it resizes correctly on iPad.

please upload a screen recording or screenshot so we can reproduce exactly which pixel art resize options you are using.

Does it crash when using pixels as units and having no fractional pixels?

[Gianni Becattini]

Thanks for answering. I have not clear what you are saying about pixel units. Would you please explain?

I tested also on a MacBook Pro M6 16M Sequoia. Same result.

If you want I can record the screen... but perhaps is not necessary. Just open, resize, crash.

Here is the screen record

Use Document-> resize and change the units from points to pixel.

Screenshots from iPad. On Desktop, UI might differ but you will find it

Done. No change, still crashes.

BTW, I used to use this function extensively, I never had problems before 2.6

Ok, when using hqx with 4x I get a crash on iPad, too.

the x/y size is 7650 / 5766 and a 4x upscale to about 30000x 23000px may exceed undocumented limits of the app.

I can confirm that Photo 1.10.7 on iPad does not crash (exported the file as PNG Rec.709).

Nor 2.55. only Beta 2.6 crashes.

my fault - I did not note that the original document was already so big.

Sorry & thanks

P.S. - however a "normal" software should perhaps warn, not crash. But nobody is perfect, and in general I see big improvement in Affinity products stability, especially in Apub which I use every day for many hours.

no reason for sorry from your side. 
It looks like a bug as you said, and even V1 can process your file without breaking a sweat.

Thanks for letting us know. I will get this logged with development.
