John6000 Posted March 7 Posted March 7 I have this file (Flag_of_Europe.svg) downloaded from Wikipedia. I open it and delete the blue background. Then I select the stars and Convert to curves. The stars disappear and I try Undo, but they don't appear back as they were. Affinity Designer 2.6.0 on Mac OS 15.3.1 Flag_of_Europe.svg Quote
Komatös Posted March 8 Posted March 8 Hello @John6000 and welcome to the forums. The stars consist of different shapes that are nested in several subgroups. Making them all into one curve object only works with the Boolean operation Add. The only remaining bug I see is the non-recoverability of the subgroups and shapes.

However, this does not answer the question of why undoing it does not restore the original state. Sure, it could have to do with the nested subgroups, but it shows that undoing does not work as expected.
