WineFix is an APL plugin which patches bugs encountered when running Affinity on Linux under Wine using runtime code patches.

1. Install APL first.
2. Download winefix-vX.X.X.zip from the latest release and extract into your Affinity install directory.

For detailed instructions, see the WineFix Installation Guide.

• Preferences fail to save on application exit
• Vector path preview lines drawn incorrectly
• Color picker zoom preview displays a black image on Wayland
• Intermittent startup crash from parallel font enumeration
• Canva sign-in dialog patched out (temporary; pending protocol handler fix)

WineFix is configurable from Affinity's preferences dialog, TOML files, or environment variables. See the Configuration Reference for all settings and options.

• Accepting crash reporting causes permanent crash until prefs are cleared
• Embedded SVG document editor crashes after being open for some time

We are open to resolving any Wine-specific bugs. Feel free to open an issue requesting a patch.
