Just to round this off..... I have found Pixillion by NCH software - there are Windows and Mac versions. I chose the Windows one (on a trial) and it does the job well. I decided to purchase the full program. The maximum batch size in the trial version is a mere five. A batch of some 20,000 is being covered as I write..... The plan is to move the folder from Windows to Mac and make use of it there. Thanks again, and I hope that if someone stumbles across this thread, the info is useful. Cheers. Mitch

Greetings - Oh, and Happy New Year...... I have a large collection of WMF's (which I got from Serif when I used their products. )Thy are not readable with Affinity. They are too good to waste and now that I'm Mac orientated, I would like to convert these somehow into a format that Affinity recognises... Does anyone have a suggestion for a conversion program - not too expensive - that can do the task? I am not interested in the online conversion route. Is EPS the best option to convert to? Cheers Mitcherooney

So I typed in affin.co/core_skills_artboards.afdesign (as per page 71) and all I get is an Error 404 - page not found. Clearly I am doing something wrong. Would some kind soul please enlighten me? I'm old, so be gentle. Thanks

Thanks for the information. I previously had been following the tutorials on https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/tutorials/photo/and it is from there that they have disappeared. This web page doesn't seem to have any connection with Vimeo..... But I see that the tutorial that I was interested in is indeed available through the link that Lee provided, so thanks again.

Some of the newer ones seem to have gone walkabout. For instance, Tutorial: Channels: Creating/Storing Selections - that seems to have gone. I think there are three others. All of which appear to be the latest additions... I have cleared my browsing cache in case I'm being led to an earlier 'edition' of the site. The latest one shown is 'Non-Destructive in painting and cloning. Puzzling.

MEB: I should never have doubted you. You are absolutely correct of course. My thanks to you for clearing this issue for me. Cheers -

Hi Guys and thanks for the replies… MikeFromMesa: I think that you may have got the wrong end of the stick, because I'm afraid it doesn't do the trick. Thanks though for the compliment regarding the photo itself. MEB: The 'Add'' option doesn't work either. I can certainly add to the existing selection, but not within it. You are both welcome to have a go with image that I uploaded. If you get the required result, I;d be interested to know about it. Cheers -
Selecting gap in image

Well, I I have finally found a way to do this although it's a bit clumsy….. I selected the gap first refined it and exported the image as a png. Then i opened the png and selected the pair of us and once again refined the thing and I then was able to paste a new background. It works, but is there a simpler way? Cheers -
Difficult to describe the problem in the limited space in the title... My problem is that I have an image of my wife and I standing close together and whilst I have no problem selecting our outline, I cannot seem to find a way to also select a gap between us for the purpose of eliminating the background. I am probably missing something really simple, but can anyone advise me how to go about this, please? Thanks. I have attached the image in question.

Is there any chance that Prefences could allow a user to lighten the displa? I find the whole thing diddicult to read. It's probably my age, but I'm fairly sure that this option would be welcomed generally. Thanks Austen Mitchell
