Update, the new 1.10 update has completely eliminated this issue! Amazing!

Hi both,

This is expected. That sample file is a very complex project and it just cannot be instant, with all the layers and adjustments being calculated live. 

I've moved this to questions as it's not a bug. 

Thanks,

Gabe. 

Thank you for the response! I started to suspect as much after trying out the exact same file with a couple of different computers.

Hi,

Did you look at the: Edit > Preferences > Performance settings?

Tried it on the same OS as you with the same RAM but here it works perfect.

Yes, I've tried changing the settings in that menu but it made no difference.

Hi, I'm a long time Adobe Photoshop user looking to migrate to Affinity Photo in the near future, so I've installed a trial version to give it a go. However, I've encountered a possibly deal-breaking problem, as seen in the video in the link below.

As you can see from the video, the program becomes unbearably slow and lags when I try to move objects using the Move Tool. I'm wondering if there's anything I can do on my side such as changing a few settings or something else to help alleviate this problem.

For reference, I'm running Affinity Photo on a laptop with the following specs:
CPU: i7-8750H @2.2Ghz with Turbo Boost up to 3.9GHz
GPU: Nvidia Geforce GTX1060 6GB
RAM: 16GB
OS: Windows 10 64-bit
