Andy is on fire today! :))
Congratulations!

I wonder how an CMYK curves adjustment works when the document is in RGB mode.
I thought the color space wasn't the same - I mean - not every color has an equivalent, right?
Doesn't this produce any blind spots? Did you do any workarounds for them or is there anything to keep in mind?
Thanks in advance!

Hikusai- no joke!
I just visited a Lighrioom course and told the other people there about awesome AP.
And then Inread this post and just had to freak out and tell everyone that you'll release a DAM in 2016 *_*
So great :)
I'll add some things I "learned" from the course and which I would consider to be very important.
First off not every RAW format is garanteed to be supported till the end of the earth so would it be possible to use DNG as an format to convert the raw files to? They said it would be an open standard from Adobe. I hope it really is that open!
That's important because DAM is not only about short terms but very important for long iterations.
For example the consistent UI of Lightroom over all past versions was pointed out because it is almost completely the same as in V1. That's not important to me so much but to many others ....
So in a DAM consistence is very important!
And something that'll be easy to improve:
The diashow and book options in Lightroom are very poor, I'd would be possible to just drop these things! (Publisher could probably do the book and web stuff anyway!)
Last I want to add that there are some color sliders controlling luminance etc very detailed and they would still be awesome in AP, I'll post a picture of then when I'm home.
-
And I've linked in my signature to a post from TonyB.
They just want to complete the things that were announced and then consider other things.
I just hope DAM has a higher priority than going for Windows as well...

I would appreciate this behavior very much as it is now I find myself sometimes with another tool of the same toolset selected because the first place shortcut does also cycle between them as well as selecting them....
-
It´s on the top right in the toolbar ;)
-
the contrast invert blend mode is also just great :))
I see myself using this A LOT!
-
Hoping for an explanation of use cases for the live stack modes, and they´ll be live like blend modes but I guess that´s for sure.
Thank you very much Affinity Team!
The Levels clipping thing is awesome and the Colorspace options for adjustments as well - but I´ll have to watch some videos about the exact use of them.
Also the Perspective tool is awesome, I´d just make it the default when clicking on the icon in the tools section on the left side and make a checkbox in the toolbox to use it destructively.

I ran into an issue with the destructive distortion tool as well
When I want to readjust the distortion the new distortion grid is a square and does not reflect the actual edges of the distorted pixel layer ....
If this behaviour has changed - please correct me ...
-
Time for a new beta? :)
-
I question myself how they want to push a new file format if no commercial product is allowed to use it??
-
ok that´s sad because I use to create two or three sets of adjustments to compare them.
this get´s my 4GHz Quadcore spinning at 100% and maybe grouping them would allow AP to do some pre rendering on the groups and so I could switch them on and off more fluidly...
And it would be easier to create different "looks" and keep them organized.
Or have you any other solution/ approach for that?
-
hmm too sad....does the same go for this one?

sometimes it´s that easy.....
thanks!!

Yes indeed that works but I´d prefer the dragging solution - especially for use with a pen and a tablet
-
It would be nice if one could drag with a pressed mouse on/ above the text size label ...
And on the layers visibility (still missing this one :/ )
... Or just on nearly every label that controls the size of a tool or object ;)
-
Yes I noticed this behaviour and I also see the other possibility but I'm just pretty shure there was a way to do it with a curve in affinity as well....
Otherwise it would be worth a second option in the top bar :o
(I've read your answer to my adjustment grouping thing - just have to take a closer look on it as it's fairly important to me)
-
I know that this has been discussed some time ago and I'm pretty shure it is possible, I just coudn't figure out how to do it.
Say you want to "erase" a power suply cable in a photo.
One approach is to create a curve with the pen tool covering the cable and then turning it into a selection and use the impainting brush inside this selection.
I just couldn't find how to create a selection with the thickness of the curve.....
When pressing the "selection" bottom in the top bar it reduced a sort of area beneath the curve... (Like a f"fill")
Thanks in advance!

Two times out of two ;)

I've made your instructions in AP MAS, saved, open with beta and I reproduced it two times.

Best Mac for Affinity Apps?

You'll always get beach balls st some time.
But the apps sre very effective so it's also to say that you'll probably will get less beach balls than with any other software.
So it just depends on your budget.
I'd just advice you to go for 16GB RAM (you can also change this yourself after buying an iMac).
And I'd choose a SSD or fusion drive. As a photographer I need more space so I choosed a fusion drive.
