I think this is a related question to properly using the Photo persona. I place an image in my Affinity Publisher document, and when zooming in I see it in all its detail, which is great because my next goal is to do a smart select and refine edges.
So I switch to the Photo persona and instantly my image resolution has gone to hell, and my efforts in smart selection/refinement is worthless due to the poor resolution:
What happened here? How can I use the Photo persona to change this image in place using Studio Link? The above happens when I've placed either a .jpg or a .afphoto file. The workaround, which is unsatisfying, is to cut out the background in Affinity Photo and place the resulting .afphoto file.
Thanks for any insights.
