Issue 1: Hmm strange, because in 1.6.5 I never had that issue Could it also be a pen & tablet integration issue?
I am really at a loss here because it always worked flawless in 1.6.5 for me.
Issue 2:
Thanks!
Issue 3:
Oh sorry I didnt mention this, actually, I work with PSDs all the time. So this might be related! I also opened PSDs to recreate the issue.
EDIT: I just had a really funny bug actually... I was working on one of the pictures. (PSD greyscale and all), and at the beginning I had the R/G/B values as shown before... And at some point WHILE STILL EDITING it switched over to %. 😱
I didn't close the document, I didn't switch over to another file. I was just working on it... Damn, I didn't even switch tools! I don't understand it anymore. 😨
EDIT2: Haha, it reverted back. And now I can replicate it! Alt-tab out of Affinity... (do something in another program) then CLICK on affinity in the task bar and suddenly R/G/B gets switched % and vice versa!
This is hillarious. 🤣
Hello guys,
I tried the current version again. I was stuck for a long time on 1.6.5 because of several bugs, and thought I'd try the current version again... However, most issues are still not fixed, and I simply can't work with this version the way it is Will probably revert to 1.6.5 yet AGAIN. So I am opening up a bug report this time, in hope you will fix those issues in a later release.
Few things to my device / hardware Setup:
32 GB RAM
AMD Ryzen 7 3700X
AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT
Wacom Intuos P&T S (Driver Version 6.3.38-2 (up to date))
Windows 10 Pro 1909 (18363.778)
Affinity Photo 1.8.3.641 (No issues with version 1.6.5 at all)
Single Monitor (24''; 1920x1200px Resolution)
Issues I found:
- I work mostly with my Wacom Intuos, when I work with Affinity Photo.
Adjusting the size of the brush is a horror!
As I mentioned before I use the Wacom Intuos. So I am also trying to adjust my brush size with the pen. Which is a horror.
What do I do?
I use my pen, click 'Width' and slowly drag it either to the right or the left. Depending on if I want the brush bigger or smaller.
In Affinity Photo 1.6.5 this smoothly adjusts the number, so that I can decide if I want to take small steps or big steps...
In Affinity Photo 1.8.3... It simply ignores me sometimes, or jumps only a few steps, then stops again. This drives me insane and this is also the main reason why I will revert back to 1.6.5 asap. I adjust my brushes so many times that it really slows me down.
Copy Tool doesn't realize when I already copied over the place
What do I do?
I select my target, then (a few centimetres to the right for example) I place my pen down and drag it further to the right. So. This is kinda hard to explain... I don't stop midway, I just keep going and finally I get to the point where I started to copy the left side of the picture. When I get there, it starts with the pattern again, which has already been removed. I don't think this happened in 1.6.5.
Grey scale pictures have R/G/B Values when opened?
What do I do?
This is really a minor thing, but I just noticed it.
I open up a document, which I had converted to grey scale earlier. The first document isn't usually a problem. If I open several documents in grey scale the fun begins.
So my first document... I select my tab, and want to start working. So I 'color pick' myself one of the grey scales available. In the 'color picker preview' (Mind I use the ALT key for this!) I can see the grey scale percentage.
Okay, so I open up my 2nd page, which was in a second tab, and here it's different. Even though the page was converted to B/W before, it now gives me R / G / B values in the 'color picker preview'.
So, hopefully I didn't forget something. I hope this helps you to improve Affinity Photo even more! Thanks for your hard work guys!
Hi Chris,
you're right. I think I had brush settings, which were lost in the upgrade process. I noticed this when I downgraded back to 1.6 and my settings were still gone. *sigh*
I will try to make a video of issue 3 though!
