rubs Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Hi, it seems that Affinity Designer lost its ability to copy objects as vectors into the Windows clipboard. I'm testing it using several target softwares (CorelDRAW, Xara Designer, Inkscape, etc.) and all I get are DIBs / bitmaps. In Xara it's even worse because all bitmaps are blank. Also the 'Copy items as SVG' option in the Preferences dialog does not change anything for me. Any thoughts? Wiredframe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubs Posted May 2, 2018 Author Share Posted May 2, 2018 Just now, haakoo said: Don't recall it ever did paste as vector in XaraDesigner I think it did, but I may be wrong indeed. What I do remember is that AD previously crashed Xara Designer, then Serif fixed something and the crash was gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubs Posted May 2, 2018 Author Share Posted May 2, 2018 Yep, thanks. PDF works, that's what I'm using so far. But I just think things in AD should just work as intended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDPR-365024 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 I'm not having that issue copying into Inkscape (current ver. 0.92.3) with 'Copy items as SVG' checked in AD. In Inkscape I checked at max magnification (25,600%) and the vector is as it should be. I don't have/use Corel or Xara so can't comment on those.

rubs Posted May 3, 2018 Author Share Posted May 3, 2018 I've made more tests and In fact it does work in Inkscape when Copy items as SVG is enabled. Some multi-path objects got corrupted, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
