I think of it like this: If I had a Tray (an Art board) with Coffee and cookies on it, and asked you if you wanted: Just the coffee (Selection only) or the Coffee and Cookies (Selection area - ie the things ON the tray) or 'the whole Tray (Artboard) The Tray + The Coffee and the cookies... I am not sure why I came up with that analogy, I must be hungry. Thanks again.

Thank You so much! You are a Star ⭐ I have now been able to export the image with the color changes I want. And have learned something today! There seams to be a fine line between 'Selection only' and 'Selection area'. I was under the impression Selection Area meant more than one element on the artboard but not including the artboard itself. Maybe Affinity could make this clearer somehow, possibly an Info button at this export dropdown explaining what will be exported... There is space for it. Thank you again for your help, I really appreciate it. B

Thank you for your quick reply. Here are the screenshots of the export settings. The only thing I changed was 'Selected Area' instead of Artboard as I wanted to use it in another programme.

Hello All, I am new to Affinity Photo but fairly proficient with Affinity Designer. I loaded a Jpeg into Photo and did some color changes (To Blues) but when I went to export the new colorway it would only export in my original colours (Multi color). It shows the changed Blue version in the preview window but changes back to original when downloading... The download is the original Multi colored version. I have gone into the Develop Persona, but the same thing happens. I checked the book and did not see the answer under exporting. It seems like it should be a straight forward export but I have been trying to sort for an hour now. Please help... Many Thanks! I am running Affinity Photo V2 on an iMac desktop

Any updates on a symbol sprayer in Affinity Designer???

Yes Please Affinity, we need a Blob brush!

A small change, but one I would imagine would be easy to do. Would it be possible to make that thicker band in another color that you've put around V2? Maybe in both a dark and light color - that way it is easier to differentiate, which version I am in when switching over. The little icons are too similar. Or poss put V2 in the middle of the icon. These icons are much smaller than my screenshot here shows and difficult to distinguish between the two .

Hi, Today I went to redo all my presets into V2 and found they DID copy over - Listed under My presets in V2. My question now: Is it possible to get the grid layout as in Designer 1 ? It now just shows a list view of the presets. I prefer the Visual version.

Thank You Walt for the reply, By layout presets I meant the page set up ie: 12" x12", RGB, 300 dpi I have quite a few and it will be very time consuming to redo manually. Are they stored in a file in V1 that can be brought over to V2?

Hello, I am currently migrating my Designer 1 to V2. Everything went smoothly. My brushes and assets moved over automatically🎉. However, My Layout Presets and Studio Presets did not move to V2. How do I get them to be accessible in V2? Why did some things move automatically and other did not ? Thanks for your help!

Many Thanks to you, these are wonderful ! Any Idea how to make alcohol ink effect brushes?

I am also looking for these!

As is the case with a lot of things, but seems to go on deaf ears for years and years and years.....

I agree, It would be so much more useful to see the full image for scale and working. At least have it as an option. 😐 No sense asking for it as a feature request..... Thank You "Old Bruce" and "wilt.farrell" for answering my question.

Hello, My question is on art boards. If I place an image Half on the outboard and half off the art board I do not see the section that is not on the art board I tried placing one art board on top of another but that did not work. see first image below How do I see the full image? Are there some settings I need to change ? First Image - The rest of the ellipse does not show in the Green Color: The second Image - This is what I want to see. The full image and the outside edge of the Art Board This wold be a Big help To scale and design. (Done in Illustrator....) How do I see the full image? Are there some settings I need to change ?
