Continuous export feature misses translation of more than 2 objects

[eladams]

We are developing an app that works as a companion for mobile designers who work with Affinity Designer (Design Viewer - still on beta testings :) ).

To keep track Design Viewer app for Mac uses Affinity Designer Continuous Export Feature PNG/PSD exports.

 

During our tests we found that if there are more than 2 objects, Affinity Designer will miss the translation of a third one added.

 

To reproduce this scenario, act as follows:

1. Open the attached "ContinuousExportBug.afdesign".
2. Turn continuous export feature on.
3. Move the blue rectangles right in the following order: first the upmost, then the one in the middle and lastly the at the lowest.

The expected result is the attached file: "expected.png".

The actual exported image is the attached file: "background.png".

Okay, there seems to be something strange going on there - thank you for bringing it to my attention. It isn't actually to do with how many objects there are, it's something to do with their position.... If you reverse the order of the objects in the document you can see that the object with the lowest y translation is still the one that is not updating. However, if you drag that object vertically instead of horizontally you can see your exported image does update - so it's something to do with that bottom area of the document!?!

 

I'll look at getting this sorted, thanks! :)

We've found and fixed the issue - there should be a new beta build on the way that fixes this within the next few hours! :)
