1.7.0 broke basic copy + paste?!


Recommended Posts

I've been using Affinity for months without issue to do the most basic design work imaginable - cropping images into bordered circles - so it's annoying to even have to post here, but 1.7 seems to have broken basic copy + paste formatting preservation.

It used to be simple: create a 1 in, 2in or 4in ellipse with varying border stroke sizes (the sizes I need), copy it, open up an image in a new tab, paste the ellipse over the image and re-size it to fit within how I want it, copy the whole combined layer back to the original document.

Now, every time I do that, the whole damn thing resizes automatically, failing to preserve the measurement in inches AND the set stroke width every.single.time. I have to reset everything manually, which given the number I need to create, is incredibly obnoxious and time-consuming.

Why did this change? Is there a setting or toggle that got flipped to a different default with the update? Selecting Anchor to Page instead of Rescale does absolutely nothing to address this... Appears to do absolutely nothing at all, in fact.
