We can now open multi page PDF (YEAH!) :) , can we also export them? AD just crashed at the first attempt but I think it´s supposed to work at some point?
Therefore it would be helpful to not only be able to create artboards from object but also from a sort of "new document" setting?
-
Event professionals have to use the standard paint brush in some cases to recover/ create information that´s just not in the picture (but in the mind of the artist/ retoucher).
-
ctrl + klick on the app icon, select open (hold ctrl down) then select all and klick on the "clear" button
-
Is there a shortcut to go back to 0 degree rotation? If not - what about shift cmd 0?
Rotation is totally sweet, although not totally smooth but that´s my overall experience with AP, I use lots of filters and adjustments and of course this eats up resources. And I think it really is faster than before but i hope with metal it´ll get like than 10x faster. Then I´d say it´s perfekt.
Panorama stitching is amazing, just did a 104MP Panorama of Paris!
Split toning is sweet as well!
The toggle for 100% zoom is very useful!
THX for the deform filter!!
Ah, and AP crashed once and I lost the top panel with the personas but ctrl reset did the job.... sorry for not giving you a crash report, but it was in the panorama stitching part. I added a clarity filter on top of two USM and then I added a levels adjustment and then it crashed and didn´t restore the levels and the clarity adjustment.
AD got a lot faster with gaussian blur filter!
In AP the color picker is still slow like whatever asa it hits the canvas of a more complicated picture (I gave it MEB - the one with the Jeans)
I´m still looking forward to dragging the "layer" description to set the opacity.
and I´m still looking forward to USM Threshold alt klick preview for masking.
overall - big thumps up! you really got me surprised this evening, didn´t expect all of that!
EDIT
I think your "new" approach to the Photo extension is great! (although I´ll probably never actually use it)

that is freaking amazing and surprising!
THX!!!
-
They´re already possible
-
And don't have the "resample" checkbox ticked if you're working with a photo.

I showed a friend of mine AP but he's also just a casual photographer and went back to picasa - what a pity. But he has just no use for such a great software but a DAM would be fine for him. Especially if it would include some basic editing functionality in itself. I´ll definitely show it him as soon as it´s available.
If it offers easy organization, cropping, color correction and this haze filter which makes casual users scream (also me sometimes ;) and then he´ll be ready to go and I think it´s the same with many others.....

I think the extension is fine for those who use Apple photos.
Everyone who is more serious would not use Apple photos anyway - if you are skilled and using Apple photos nevertheless, please don't feel offended ;) but maybe you'll see the benefits of better software as soon as you try out the future affinity DAM ;)
-
Yes
Affinity as a part of serif to be even more precise
Just "news" are announced for 2016
The publisher beta will be first an then we'll see
Maybe 2nd or 3rd quarter
I think publisher will come out pretty good with the special pdf options and printing stuff so I think it won't be a long beta.
-
They'll make a real DAM in 2016 (unlike Apple photos) and this will work 100% along with AP so there we go ;)

I'd say afds and afph because that is more where the pronunciation is IMO but apart from that I also like the shorter extensions.
Although I don't find the current setting awkward.
It really is up to personal preferences so we could just meet at the serif office and have some tee and discuss the whole thing :D haha
-
I also find these options to get shades etc of one color not so usable.
The colours are just added to the swatch.
There is no way of getting a good impression on them and easily manage them.
A more generous space would be much better IMO. Colours deserve more than a tiny square for each.
But you're probably aware of this anyway so I'm looking forward to further improvements.
-
You could also use a 6x4" rectangle and use it as a clipping mask. Then you don't have to flatten the document because the resizing is done through the clipping mask.
-
It actually just works that way.
It's logical as it merges the layers and produces a new layer .... So that's a perfectly fine behaviour.

It'll be in the next MAS version update but I also requested this for the sharpening tool but somehow the devs are not so much around the feature request forum at the moment. Lots of bugs though, they might have a busy time in the office.
I think they know about the sharpening masking issue though - just haven't had time yet I guess
-
If I rasterise an image - do I loose resolution?
Is it rasterised to the current document dpi and resolution.
I guess it's not but I just want to be shure ....

Affinity Photo Customer Beta (1.3.5.7)
in [ARCHIVE] Photo beta on macOS threads
Posted
alt+ctrl drag for brush adjustments is somehow unusable with the rotation because the dragging directions also rotate with the canvas which is not supposed to work like that I guess?
