I can confirm this know1. The shadow changes from 6px Blur to a 15.2px Blur. The feather changes from a 10px Feather to a 19.4px Feather
Good find!

Minis Forum UM780XTX AMD Ryzen7 7840HS with AMD Radeon 780M Graphics + 32 GB Ram + MSI Optix Mag321 Curv monitor + 1Tb SSD + 232 GB SSD + 250 GB SSD portable drive + ISP = BT + Web Hosting = TSO Host
Fascinating find.
I set Units to Millipoints, the Xara canonical unit.
I then feathered 100mp to a Skew of exactly 45 degrees.
On Undo, the Feather became 199.
Repeating this results in a doubled value less one, every time.
This should help Xara debug to the exact area.

Thanks Know1, I've reported this to our developers, DDES-16162
I see this also happens with the bevel tool.
Inner bevels become bigger to the inside, outer bevels keep growing in size.
I did see the one with the bevels / feathers in the database too, I think that is logged as DDES-9152 (reported in X1 lol)
A 15-year Backlogged defect is pretty impressive with two defects reported each working day.
Xara Studio apparently had 20+ developers working on it for over 2 years (Wikipedia), twenty five years ago. Time for another rewrite that is not 'Xara Cloud'-driven?

Rob, totally agree. Bugs are fascinating nonetheless. Exposing a list of know bugs would go a long way to letting users know the current state and whether, in their judgement, it needs to be escalated; a case study into this is the Squishy-Squashy Saga. Isolated, you end up with a lot of disillusioned users that Xara otherwise would not know about.

I've suggested a public bug reporting support center before, that allows users to report if they have the same issue or not but alas nothing became of it. I can see the pros and cons for it but for now I try and attach bug numbers to anything people report so they can chase it up if they wish.
