Watercolor splash
anon1 replied to crabtrem's topic in Tutorials (Serif and Customer Created Tutorials)
I'd also like to ask where the splash comes from? Besides that I really like your descriptions! -
A fast DAM which probably will also feature an easy to use viewer is announced for 2016. Or at least news are announced for 2016. You can look at the links in my signature. Apart from that afphoto is an affinity format and there is no 3rd party application that can read it. I think it stores some low res jpg in it which you can see with the OS X preview but that's it.

May I ask what you think about a vector scope? It may not be very hard to implement and I find it very interesting for marching the skin tones.... And maybe even an interface like FCPX with the 4 dots where one can take the greens and simply make them more red ... Seems pretty intuitive to me. So do you think there is anything useless or difficult about it? Can we get it?

Brushes
anon1 replied to GaryC's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
just open the folder containing the brushes select all (or press cmd + a) and right klick and select open with AP (or AD) EDIT usually this works - but I´ve had a problem where a brush would only import when doing it from the application and then selecting the brush file -
non-English Help availability during Beta
anon1 replied to acapstick's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on macOS threads
I´ve had the trouble that although I´ve set my Apps to English and I´m very happy with that my system is set to german (and I don´t want to change that) Maybe you can work something out to force set the help language to english as well? (if english is set to the main language) I´d rather use an up to date english help. Not saying that the german help is particularly bad, I just prefer staying in one language and avoiding unnecessary mistakes..... -
Move/adjust basic selections while creating them
anon1 replied to Mr. Doodlezz's topic in Older Feedback & Suggestion Posts
I´d also like the way it works in PS - it´s handy! I think the quick mask mode is supposed to be a sort of that? What I find really annoying though is that I´m not able to change the feathering of a selection in the qm mode. I can do this through the refine selection tool but that really is not comfortable.- 8 replies

selection with channels
anon1 replied to Depa's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
yes that´s possible.... Or you can use the normal adjustments and then go to Layer > Merge Visible to merge the bw with all the adjustments into a new bw layer. -
I just googled for "affinity digital asset management" to figure out what google would show from this forum and found this thread to be the first so I think it´s worth noticing that they´ve made an announcement,really exited :) https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/13792-feature-request-affinity-lightroom-killer/?p=61067

Maybe you can upgrade to El Capitan and use the new Photos App and then you'll be able to use the actual affinity extension directly which offers some of the most common tools directly into the Photos App (it has nice tools such as the Haze Removal Tool and it will be even enhanced in the future) But maybe you depend on the old photos app ... So it's you're decision

selection with channels
anon1 replied to Depa's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
you can use the channels in the channels panel in the bottom right (default) in the lower ones you can right click and use "create greyscale layer" and you can go to layer > rasterize to mask to use a greyscale layer as a mask ans you can cmd click on a layer to load it as a selection and go to select > save as spare channel and then do add and subtract actions with the spare channels I´m not the best one to explain this but it´s definitely possible and I guess it will be improved - I had a pixel selection and used right click on a spare channel "add to pixel selection" but it did not seem to work - both pixel selections had to be loaded from spare channels - maybe someone can check this out - maybe it was also my fault -

Clipping path
anon1 replied to Superclipping's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
You can also create the path and then hit the mask button and then export the picture as a png. Maybe this helps in some situations? I guess you'll be adding them at some point anyway right? -
Affinity Photo Customer Beta (1.3.5.5)
anon1 replied to Andy Somerfield's topic in [ARCHIVE] Photo beta on macOS threads
it´s still there (y) but not live, yet :/ :D -
In PS one can easily select multiple colours and then adjust the tolerance and get a great selection of different shades of green or whatever color. In AP thiugh one can only "select sampled color" and adjust the tolerance To add other shades to this one would have to merge several masks afterwords whtich is not comfortable by any means. I hope you can find some time to enhance this feature.

Affinity Photo Customer Beta (1.3.5.5)
anon1 replied to Andy Somerfield's topic in [ARCHIVE] Photo beta on macOS threads
There is some factor involved which is not set properly and they want to fix this. Also the thing with noise reduction which seems to be different at different zoom levels.... -
