IanSG Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Open an image, click Window / Float. Try to open another image and the original disappears from the work space. Open two images, click Window / Float All. Click on the gray area outside the image in one window and the other window disappears from the work space. Most things cause something to disappear from the work space! AP, AD & APub user, running Win10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walt.farrell Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Isn't your problem simply that you didn't move the floating window away from the Affinity workspace, but left it where it was originally? If you do that, when you click the File menu you raise the workspace above the floated window. That seems like standard Windows window handling to me, rather than a bug. If you minimize the workspace you'll find your initial floated window sitting happily behind it. What does seem like a bug is that, having done that, so that a window is hidden behind the workspace, clicking WIndow-> and selecting that hidden window does not bring it to the surface; it remains hidden behind the workspace. -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.4.1, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, anything that takes focus away from the floated windows causes problems. I'm only doing things that worked OK with the previous beta.

Staff Chris J Posted February 7, 2018 Staff Share Posted February 7, 2018 Hi IanSG. This has come about as a result of implementing a request to allow floating windows to show the icon on a taskbar on another monitor. As walt says, it is normal windows behaviour but it was better the way it was before where the window didn't disappear behind when using tools etc. So I will fix this asap for the next beta. Sorry about this! Cheers, Chris Mark Ingram, IanSG and PaulAffinity 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
