White reveals, Black conceals :)

In the next one? I thought this one is submitted?

Is Affinity already using Metal on OS X?

You can first ZIP it (right click and then choose ... I don't know how it's called in English....compress?) Then the forum will accept any file ;)

My issue with the marquee selection is solved but when you zoom in while having quick mask mode active the quick mask mode disappears so you don´t know where to zoom. The drop up UI thing is also still the same.

Youll probably have to post the files?

Yeah

Yeah thank you, makes perfectly sense. Maybe you could start out with the average of a bigger area so that it doesn't take every single pixel into account that you hover over but recalculated as much detail as possible without much lag? And keeping the cursor for a few seconds over one place would then lead to the pixel perfect view? - well you'll know more about this than I do, looking forward to any improvements!

What I don´t understand: I´ve got a 24MP scanned image of a jeans (Yeah really) And I´ve applied quite a few adjustments to it - your color picker is now hardly usable. It really stutters heavily! (It already did so in all previous versions). I dropped MEB the file some time ago. I just tried it out again and your color picker is still that slow. But then I used the Apple color picker and that was just 100% responsive. That made me think again....Maybe there is an easy solution to fix this? If Apple Color Picker can see all the color immediately, why not your color picker?

make a rectangular marquee selection press q > quick view rotate the canvas - selection is gone an no new one is possible (that is what I reported to MEB yesterday with a screencast, not fixed yet) And the UI drop up bug was´t solved either, but I think that was deliberate.

As I said, it won't make much difference in the normal use. And it's also not too bad for the panorama stitching because it only has to be done once and when it's finished you can save and reopen the file and the RAM will be fine again.

8GB But the 120MP panorama was even quite difficult on the iMac with 32GB but RAM doesn't make much of a difference there anyway. I found out that noise reduction/ addition and USM live filters are really heavy. I always try to apply them in the end or disable them temporally cause they just make the app so unresponsive, even with a 24MP picture. But I also set the view quality to the best settings.

I only ran out of ram once on my MB during panorama stitching where the MacBook hat to write on the SSD. Generally AP/ AD don't cach much cause it's all live...

At least bleed for artboards is now enabled (v) But bleed preview will be a big enhancement with no doubt!

And I bet there are internal OS level ram shedulers that prevent any app from taking away the most basic system resources. On my macs the RAM is correctly set to 8 and 32GB so it works for me....

Thank you very much Herbert. This effort is truly noteworthy! I think this (layer cloning) could come along with symbols? They're somehow very similar?! Although this seems quite fancy I´m not sure if it really is very relevant. But layer clones are nice overall ;) bottomline - from what you´ve said photoline definitely is a great application for some things but just looking at the interface...IMO not very user friendly or nice to look at. Just my opinion. Overall I think photoline lacks some serious marketing because some of its functions might be really good. I don´t wanna dive into argumentations here, just my quick opinion.

I also absolutely second Chris request.

I forgot the ability to merge masks. Doing it with channels is not very comfortable. And when I modify a mask with a live adjustment layer and I want to merge them in a destructive way, I don't know how to do it. I tried selecting both and choosing "merge selected" but it was greyed out. - I'll make a PDF with all these stuff as there's so much round here that I'll probably have to repeat these things some more in the future :)

There´s an option in the AP preferences preferences > tools uncheck "Enable canvas rotation via trackpad"

Ah and what´s always annoying me: Why do filters on top of filters still get nested? Can´t there be one line of code to prevent this "default behavior? It´s just so odd! And what does "auto commit filters (Preferences > UI) mean?

Please change in both AP AD that the numerical rotation input in the transform panel does not respect the custom rotation centre, but overwrites it with one of the 6 standard dots...
