Is anyone else able to reproduce this? Thanks! Hang on: Have you set the 'Retina rendering:' options to something other than the 'Automatic (Best)' setting? Hi Matt - yes this happens to me as well when there is no artboard in the document. Please start by creating a document without an artboard and then use the pixel paint brush. Then add an artboard and that painting outside the borders disappears but it's still glitchy, especially with some phantom squares outside and some edge strangeness as you paint around the edges of the artboard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abarkalo Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Beta 10 still has clipping issues when importing SVGs. Not exporting - that goes well if I give an exported SVG to someone who has Illustrator for instance, or even my own exported SVG read back into Designer. I can provide an example if you wish.

lenogre Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 About Corner, can you add an option when we scale objects ? If I have a shape with a corner value = 3 for example, I scale my shape x2, the logic would be a corner value = 3x2 but it's always the same corner value regardless the size… We must bake corners but it's a poor solution.

It looks like it is specific to the word (more specfically letters) used. For example Artboard didn't display the issue, but Artboardy did - because the descender on the Y was pushing the text up. If you take the G out of Rectangle it will display ok. I'll get this passed on to development. Figmatt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For basic shapes (like rectangles), you can simply uncheck the "absolute sizes" and the corner radius will scale with your object (because it's now relative to the size of the object). If you're talking about the corner tool, then yes I don't think it's possible right now MattP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the Device Presets have been saved with the Create Artboard option enabled - simply because we feel that many UI/UX designers are going to be dealing with lots of different screens so are likely to be using artboards. However we do have an improvement logged about that checkbox retaining its status when the dialog is re-invoked. Figmatt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes this issue is with ether RBG/8 or 16 but only while in Pixel personal and when painting with the regular brush. When I switch over to regular persona that weirdness is gone.

abarkalo Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 There are some issues with some fonts that cause AD to crash - predictably, and each time with a particular font when I access the OpenType features. I've checked the fonts (also with TransType4), re-installed, wiped my system but still there are some font problems especially from a big name whose name goes unmentioned here. I wrote to him and he was puzzled. Everything seems to check out. But then I tried the same with AD MAS and there was zero problem so I'm convinced it's the beta. I'm attaching the crash screen grab but can also send a report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorkboycomics Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I'm seeing vector brush lines with full size variance based on pressure not being able to ramp up from zero thickness, and instead have a blob to start (drawing on Wacom Cintiq connected to MBP). It seems like the rest of the line variation is improving over 1.5.5 which seemed to not register the pressure sensitivity as well, but hoping it continues to improve along with getting rid of this blob tip. thanks, -damian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.M.1986 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Hi I've got a pretty huge problem with Affinity Designer, when I use it on a second screen HP Pavillion 2560x1440 theres is a lot of glitch making Affinity Designer useless. If I use the pencil I doN't see all the lines, and when I do for example a rectangle it doesn't fully fill, on ly when i click on it pretty wierd and frustrating. Working with the last Macbook Pro with Radeon Pro 4Gb, Sierra 10.12.6, 2,9Ghz i7, 16Gb DDR3. Affinity Designer 15.5 I put a picture so you see the blue rectangle of my shape, but you see the fill is not full and all the brown rectangles that you see are incomplete. Does the 1.6 beta will fix this? Thank You Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1.6 beta doesn't overwrite the Mac App Store version and has totally different settings - so it is completely independent from the Mac App Store version. The only thing that is required is that the Mac App Store version is installed to the root of your Applications folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
