Designer crashing on creating symbol


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I am a new user of Affinity softwares. I am trying to follow this tutorial on Youtube to make a pattern: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSt4qrXWPFg

At or around 2:24, following the instructions as in the video, the software crashes - especially when I am doing the Alt + drag action. This has happened several times now and I have to restart the whole thing all the time. I read in some other thread that it might be because of a bug in the 'symbols' function?

Would be great if there is a solution or work around this? Many thanks.

Hi Sean P,

Here is a screenshot where the Designer gets stuck. As soon as I clicked Alt and was dragging the shape, it got stuck. When this happens, everything becomes unresponsive and I have to End Process through Task Manager.

Thanks for the screenshot! I've reproduced this now - I believe it is caused by the presence of the Appearance Panel. Could you try closing that and see if that stops it crashing for you? I'll get this passed on to development.
