I've just started using Affinity Photo and I'm running into an issue where if I've got a few different tabs open, after copying an image from one tab and switching to another, the main working view seems to show a corrupted version of the graphics which are there. This will then happen on every single open tab, and for some reason, the layers view on the right sometimes shows the actual image data no problem, but those previews will then also corrupt after being disabled and re-enabled again.

I'd hoped this would have just been an issue with the last version but it's still happening after updating to the latest version. I'm on the latest Nvidia drivers (which I've tried reinstalling just in case), and on the latest Windows 11 update.

Quick update, this also seems to happen when copy/pasting a selection of a rasterised layer within the same tab, except only the pasted part gets corrupted, not the entire view. When that pasted part is dragged around the view, the rest of the image then corrupts/disappears.

Yeah that seems to have sorted it for now, thanks! Don't think I'd want to leave that permanently off though, can imagine that causing issues when working with bigger files or multiple layer effects

You're welcome. When it is resolved the Affinity Info Bot should post details in any of the topics with that tag, so all you should need to do is Follow any of them. I see that since my earlier post, someone from Serif has also tagged this topic, so the Follow you have setup for this one should be sufficient.
