I had a problem in Affinity Photo 1 with mesh warp not working on more than two corners. Sorted by deleting preference list. Now on version 2 the warp only works on 1st corner - no effect on any others. Deleting the plist file (the only one I can find - in application contents) seems to delete the whole app according to the app store so had to re install. There was no improvement - still can only warp one corner. This is a major problem for my usual workflow as I import images that are not properly shot square and have to mesh distort them to fit them to rectangular format for further editing. Fortunately at the moment the mesh tool in Affinity photo 1 seems to be working properly so I can go back to this app for the purpose. Not good though!

I have valid 1.9.1 from mac app store. This beta asks for product key

Hi finally solved the problem with a complete and thorough uninstallation of all program files of both the release version and beta versions (using CleanmyMac) and then reinstallation. Lost plugins etc but live projection now seems to be working properly.

Ok zooming has no effect. Doing a control launch and resetting all has no effect.

Live projection (perspective) is not working on my usual quite large files - can move one or two corners but no response after. Have tried with very small and very simple files (2 colours svga res 8bit) with exactly the same results. Have tried changing rendering in presets (e.g. Metal on Metal off, reduced render quality etc.) No improvement or changes in results. Sometimes non responding corner will start to work after waiting several minutes but never get all 4 corners to respond. GPU shows high memory usage but little processor usage when trying to use this tool. Macbook pro 2015, Mojave 10.14.6, 1.8.4 release and 1.9 beta. Screen_Recording_2020-10-06_at_15_19_49.mov

Similar problem, not working on my usual quite large files - can move one or two corners but no response after. Have tried with very small files with exactly the same results.

Sometimes non responding corner will start to work after waiting several minutes but never get all 4 corners to respond. Macbook pro, Mojave, 1.8.4 release and 1.9 beta.

Ok can get some function (very subtle ) by turning of Metal support and then turning it back on in preferences.(requires restart in each case)

In Photo 1.84 and beta 1.9 the blur tool is still not working at all
