Hi there, I have just updated to the subscription v2022. And I'm finding it keeps crashing on me. I have experienced crashing in the past on v2020 because it hasn't liked the fonts. But this is crashing for no reason I can see. Is this happening to others of just me - tempted to go back to v2020
No, the objects were created using gradient and transparency tool. This is what happen when I try zooming. Please take note of the vertical scroll bar on the right as indicator of zooming and compare it to how the canvas is render 4 circles with transparent gradient and another transparency. The latter half of the video I disable the transparent effect and you can clearly see that the zooming is much, much more smooth.

This video was recorded after i upgrade my PC with i5-10500 and 32 GB RAM and Windows 11 and latest Nvidia studio driver for Windows 11. For my little test there's no difference compared to what happen on my Windows 10 when I created this test file.

I post the video and test file in reply to David Milisock.
I test display options you mentioned too. The video in above reply had interruptible refresh enabled. When disable it zooming is appear in a few more steps with cursor busy spinning all the way. But the exprerience is still stuttering compare to when I disable the transparency.

There are a total of 8 transparencies in these 4 objects as far as I can observe. My grandchildren have just arrived for a visit so i do not have time to dig deeper into this right now. My zoom performance is not objectionable as created but is better if the transparencies are removed.
I'm seeing these kinds of mysterious crashes with CorelDRAW 2022 in Windows 11 Pro. So this isn't just some Windows 10 issue. I have Win 11 Pro installed on my relatively new work desktop PC. It has fairly stout hardware (11th gen 8-core Core i7 CPU, 64GB RAM, NVidia RTX-3070 8GB GPU, 1TB NVMe SSD, 2TB SATA HDD). Despite all the performance overhead, and no other graphics applications running at the same time, CorelDRAW 2022 can mysteriously hang for a split second and then the whole application window just disappears. It happens without any warning. I had one of these crashes happen this morning; I was lucky I had manually saved my progress just a few minutes prior, so I didn't lose all that much in the crash.For me, most of the time the crashes happen when I'm either editing some text objects or when I am altering the view of the workspace (zooming in/out or hand-panning across the scene). CorelDRAW has had numerous font issues spanning back at least four version cycles. When I want to use certain fonts that I've bought or synced from Adobe Fonts I end up forced to use a rival graphics application to get full access to those typefaces. Font handling bugs are a whole other topic though.I'm kind of wondering if the background auto-save functions in CorelDRAW 2022 are affected by bugs.
Thanks for sharing.On my i3 with only 8 GB RAM and an integrated graphics chip and Win 10, zooming in and out is indeed a bit laggy, but not unusable.If I switch preview mode to "Always show" it gets a lot better but then it takes some time to render full quality when I stop zooming instead.There is definitely a difference when the transparency is removed, and I think it is understandable that it takes some resources to render four objects on top of each other, each with double transparencies.Not saying it's acceptable, just adding my observations.FWIW, I tried on an i7 with 16 GB RAM and integrated graphics, with Win 10 and Draw 2020, and it wasn't any better.
