Hi steverdezines,
I believe i know what's going on. I'm passing the files to the dev team for inspection. Thanks for reporting it. I will get back to you as soon as i have some news (note most staff doesn't work today so it may take a little).Hi MEB...thanks for trying. Have you had any luck opening those files?

Hi tomrock,
Welcome to Affinity Forums
1. Do you still have the original file you created in Affinity 1.8 (or 1.8.1) that fails to open in 1.8.3 for us to check please? Can you attach it here (i can provide an upload link if you wish to keep the file private)? Thanks.2. Features (LUT adjustment) not supported by the PSD format (Photoshop) are rasterised on export. That's expected.
3. What's the format of the image you have opened? If it's a JPG or PNG and you use File > Save after editing them and select Save Flattened in the dialog that will appear, then the JPG/PNG will be rewritten as a flattened image (these formats don't support layers among other things depending the format). If you select Save As instead the document will be saved in Affinity Photo native format (afphoto file) and you edits will be kept intact/editable. That's expected as well.

Hello,
I'm not sure if I'm in the right section, so if not, please direct me to the correct section.
Two very important files that will not open. When I open in Affinity Photo, the message I get is "This File type not supported." I created this file in the 1.7 program. I'm currently working with the newest version, which is 1.8.3
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi musictobemade
Assets are like a clipboard that can contain many items. Assets are normally something that you will use frequently in many publications, for example a company's name, address, telephone number and contact details or a logo, etc
Unlike a clipboard, Assets are retained i) even when you place a copy in your publication. ii) when you close Publisher and they become available again when you re-open Publisher.Once an Asset has been stored, you can put a copy/copies anywhere in your publication by simply dragging it from your Assets panel into your publication/s.
This means that you can store commonly used objects such as company logo, explanatory text, etc and if you want others to be able to access them, you can embed them in your current publication. If you pass that publication to someone else, then when they open they will be asked if they want to to import the Assets into their Asset panel.You can create Assets using the 'bun' top right of Assets Panel (fig one) and Create New Category from the menu (fig2) and then add your own sub-categories as I have (fig 3)
Fig 1 Fig 2 Fig 3
To make your own assets, simply select an object (text frame, or image or table, whatever) and then open the menu on a category/sub category (click on it's 'bun' and choose Add from Selection.
An Asset remains available both in your current publication and any future publication until you Right click on it and Delete it. Deleting an Asset does not delete any copy of it that you may have used in your document.
Hope that this has helped introduce them for you. More info in the Help document

Thanks, Pman. Great help!!!

I created a screen video. Hope that helpsIn additions, the exported psd file is 11mb, the ap file is 8. I created a new file and made visible all layers. A few of the layers have masks. I opened the file in PSE, and see that the images are visible, but the layers with masks do not export. A side note, I made the visible all layers in the file I uploaded yesterday, with the same results as the files I'm showing in this post.

I tried that before I posted. Trust me...there's nothing there. See the icon box in the layers palette...they are blank. Even is they were hidden, one would still see an image in those icons. And as you can see, in the AP the layers are labeled. In PE, blank. thanks anyway.

I think you have already found the answer to your rolling back question here, Your query about plugins cannot be addressed here as it has no quick solution, but your other post has been split off in hopes a work around or solution comes soon.
Oh my...that's scary. Thanks, Patrick!

I love the new version. Only one disappointment thus far. Nik no longer works. I contacted DxO support and they suggested a work around, which I implemented. It worked, but when loaded, my canvas comes up inverted (see attached screenshot). The left and right sidebar menus are right side up...but the canvas is not. See their response below.
"Hello,
Thank you in your interest in Nik Collection 2018!
While the combination of Nik Collection 2018 and Affinity Photo is not officially supported, please go to the following link for instructions on a workaround:
https://www.dam-photo.com/install-nik-collection-plugins-affinity-photo/
While we cannot offer technical support for this combination, we have had customers that have had great success with this workaround.
Kind regards,
Riley
DxO Customer Support"Anyone know how this comes about?

Hi,
I use COP at the moment till the issue is solved for the Nik Collection filters. It is very simple and can be edited further in Affinity Photo.
Cross fingers

Never mind

There are many things I love about this new version. What one gets for $49, plus free upgrades is simply beyond imagination. I cannot even wrap my mind about the tremendous value one gets. Thanks!
There are also, one or two things I'm not please about, at no fault to Affinity. It's 3rd party plugins I'm referring to. It seems as though, Nik Collection no longer works. I love Nik Collection, and I imagine someone will come through with a work around in the near future. In the meantime, I'd like to either roll back, or download the previous version. Is either of those alternatives possible? If so, how?
Keep up the good work! To say I'm a fan is an understatement!
Thanks!

I have some photohsop styles I'd like to import into AP. One style at a time. I see where I can import a styles category, but I do not see where I can import one style. What am I missing? Thanks.

Thank you for taking the time to create these marvelous presets, Hanan! Much appreciated.

Thanks for the info, Raymondo and fde101. Much appreciated.

I began using the plugin after installation and when I start an action...any action, a "updating fonts" box appears with a spinning wheel. I have an over abundance of fonts, so I let it run thinking it would take longer than normal. That was 10 hours ago. Can anyone advise? See attached screenshot.
Thanks
