StuartRc Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 I am having a similar issue with the node adjustment and the transform panel (AD) If you use the Wacom Pen to adjust the slider it is 'sticky' with the value set at 0 deg. Also flickers significantly Also value fails increment in the input box when using keyboard arrow keys Affinity Version 1 (10.6) Affinity Version 2.4.2 All (Designer | Photo | Publisher) Beta; 2.4 2.2371 OS:Windows 10 Pro 22H2 OS Build 19045.4046+ Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.19053.1000.0 Rig:AMD FX 8350 and AMD Radeon (R9 380 Series) Settings Version 21.04.01 Radeon Settings Version 2020 20.1.03) + Wacom Intuous 4M with driver 6.3.41-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ObsidianDog Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 On 26/8/2017 at 10:06 AM, MikeW said: Works for me...unless I am misunderstanding you. After selecting multiple nodes with the Node Tool (A), you CAN move them together pointing out the cursor over a selected node and dragging it. It works in both ways (with the mouse and with the arrow keys)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohaWeber Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 I'm having an overall problem with this version. It shuts down unexpectedly every 15-30min. Everytime it shut down I think I did something else or used a different function of the program, so it's pretty hard to tell were the problem arises from. Also the export does not work properly anymore: When selecting something and then hitting strg+alt +shift+s, selecting "selection without/with background" the export is all distorded in either its length or its width. It seems like, that the program tries to make the selected elements fit to the artboard/document sizes and don't updates the proper witdh/height just for the selected items on export...

If yes: Yes almost everytime. Almost. Perhaps of 10 crashes 8 times I got the dialogue. Right now, I just selected and moved an element (with just some anchorpoints) and then I reviewed the artwork for 1-2 min - Aaaaand it crashed. Did nothing! Literally!

Can you attach a screenshot of the crash reference dialog? It will have a code that I can use to locate your crash, so I can investigate it.

HagensWatch Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Why are the toolbar icons washed out in the Beta? I just noticed this while working in the new Designer beta. Is this a bug or is this a new design feature that's going to make it in the official release? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, there is no code or crash reference in the dialogue... just an input field to get you a message and a paragraph and a "submit" or "send" button (IDK exactly)...

JohaWeber Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Also want to mention: the quick export feature does not honor artboard or document bounds when selected "whole document" in "area"-dropdown. An image that exceeds the artboard or document bounds automatically will set the new dimensions for quick export dialogue - the selected file type (png, jpeg etc) does not matter and also it doesn't matter if the the smaller artboard, nothing (respective: document bounds) or group with a clip-path and the image to clip the image is selected prior to pressing the quick-export shortcut (ctrl+alt+shift+s). seems like this behaviour also breaks the "selection with background" and "selection without background" behaviour... EDIT: Now when creating a completely new version with the new Beta-Version, I even can't select anything in the "area"-dropdown. No matter if artboard created, selected a specific layer or group - it is always greyed out and is set to "whole document". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check this help topic for details. Are there any plans to let the calculations you make in input fields parse in realtime like it is on the mac version right now? I loved how in the affinity photo tutorials, the calculation in for example the equations filter is done while typing it in, and I noticed you have to unfocus the field in Windows in order for it to parse.

Ctrl+scale doesn't resize around centre point This is working for me! Holding down Ctrl and using the nodes on the edge of the object.

I can't rotate with the mouse, and there is no indication that I can do it. Also, rotated nodes don't stay in place no matter what. Any subsequent action (including another rotation) undoes it. Will this be fixed in the next build? Once this is fixed, scaling nodes would be useful as well! Edited August 30, 2017 by rubs Oops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

federix Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Hi, I have experienced three crashes with this 1.6.0.81 build - with the same actions: changed document resolution, from 600 dpi to 300 dpi - rescaling and then clicking export, crash! It happened three times, but many other times it worked well - by the way, I have mostly not seen many crashes while using the betas. I couldn't find any crash report where it was supposed to be - appdata>roaming>affinity>designer>1.0(beta)>crashreports - although the empty folder has its date updated as it was modified today at the crash event... I hope it could contribute to further success toward the next stable release. Thanks for all efforts; I am enjoying a lot the beta features, specially as the wacom experience got smoother - minor improvements still needed though - and perceived from the .80 to .81 build that some actions are now lighter for my cpu, as it is not turning on the coolers as frequently as it was. Thanks again!!

Staff Sean P Posted September 1, 2017 Staff Share Posted September 1, 2017 Hi federix, There is a known crash when entering Export the second time, which is with development to fix so it sounds like you keep bumping into this. federix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
