@William-Kansepa on Windows should be the Control key, but you must press it after the moving started

@Raaskot Clicking on the main window title area should not change selection

@Raaskot It seems to be a bug. workaround: turn on the "Path" object "Isolated" option in object options

@ZATOPEK That is used for images only. You can use shape Intersection for this

@Boldline I'd been emailing about different selection issues. This is why I record every time I use VS because there's so many little things that can be easily missed. I can go back through a recording and at least see what happened even if I don't understand why... I'll still try to report it.

@VectorStyler Thanks! just emailed you the file

@Raaskot Can you send me the workspace and settings files to my email address. Something is different here.

@macos Are you on Windows or Mac? If Windows, he means the scaling options in Settings/System > Display, not inside the application.

@macos Indicator styles are customizable in Settings -> Indicator Styles In the Snapping panel menu -> Snapping Options, enable the "Show Distances" (second column, top) to show distances when the Snap to Object is enabled.

@macos I opened a bug on this and will try to fix it. Is the object in Affinity selected?

How can I make clones of only the original object not the created object? Duplicate the clone

@macos The vertical text issue is identified, and the fix will be in the next build. The issue is with the new text engine. If you set the "Text Shaper" option in Paragraph Styles to "OpenType" and then in Character Options enable the "Automatic Vertical Roman" then it should work. BTW: you need to set the "Enable East-Asian Options" in Settings

@Subpath said in How to quickly copy halftone appearance to new shape?: i think the methode vectorstyler mentioned "save as preset works" best I agree that is currently the best option for getting what I was requesting. I think it's also a great solution long term if you know you're going to use it frequently or in other projects down the road. However, I also think @vectorstyler is right to add the basic copy/paste option for quick and easy one-time editing. Both options will have their due place in VS

Thanks it's work fine

I get the same issue with Affinity designer 2.0 and Affinity Studio When looking in clipboard at the svg of a rectangle copied from Affinity, then pasted in VS and copied to clipboard from VS, I can see a difference : Copied from Affinity : 992x525: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?> <!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd"> <svg width="992px" height="595px" version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xml:space="preserve" xmlns:serif="http://www.serif.com/" style="fill-rule:evenodd;clip-rule:evenodd;stroke-linejoin:round;stroke-miterlimit:2;"> <g transform="matrix(1,0,0,1,-384,-378)"> <g transform="matrix(1,0,0,1,-1176,-147)"> <rect x="1560" y="525" width="992" height="595" style="fill:rgb(235,235,235);"/> </g> </g> </svg> Copied from VS : 238x143 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?> <!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd"> <svg width="239" height="143" viewBox="0 0 239 143" version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xml:space="preserve" xml:name="Untitled-1"> <defs/> <g transform="matrix(1.0 0.0 -0.0 -1.0 0.0 142.8) "> <path d="M396.1966 18.5092 L396.1966 161.3092 634.2766 161.3092 634.2766 18.5092 396.1966 18.5092 Z" transform="matrix(1.0 0.0 0.0 1.0 -396.19663361 -18.50924665) " fill="#EBEBEB" fill-rule="evenodd"/> </g> </svg>

@ZATOPEK For making the nodes smooth (or symmetric) there is (shown in the tooltip of the action from the context panel). But for just brining out the handles and moving outwards, no shortcut (and no such feature)

merci beaucoup

@macos There an option in Settings -> Other Options: "Paste with Artboard Position" If enabled, it should keep the Artboard relative position
