My apologies.. I wondered why I didn't get any replies yet but I found that for absolutely no good reason the email notifications ended up in my spam. So anyway, yes I want to just mindlessly overwrite and I don't care about the compression settings as most of it is PNG anyway and if I do need to change stuff then I can always just use export but that's more work. I don't have an example here at the moment but I'll see if I can find one. One little thing I thought of, the pics are in a folder that's being synchronized with syncthing. I just figure that maybe some pics are in use at the moment that I open them and that's why they can't be overwritten.. So I'll turn that off next time and see if anything's different. although I'd expect some Read-Only message or something if that were the case.

I wonder what triggers the availability of the "save flattened" button (besides filetype)? I've opened png's and jpg's and saved them and got the flatten option.. But lots of time the only save option is .afphoto and 'save flattened' is not given as an option even though they really are jpg or png files. I can't find a pattern in this.

Buy V2 for this.

Ah. Reddit probably. Thanks!

moved?

Sorry, I should've been more clear instead of posting half a question.. if it's good, isn't it an idea to edit the Sharing Guidelines post?

Oh that's a good one. I didn't even look at that tbh. I just followed the guidelines without thinking about it @Patrick Connor Is that something to consider? Because I totally understand not feeling comfortable with external links.

And that's exactly the reason for not putting the image in the post directly 🙂 You have a choice now instead of being confronted with it the moment you open the post.

I understand. This is however how it's advised to post an image if in any way it could be controversial. It's in the sticky post about "sharing guidelines". It might fall under the 'horror' category I think so it seemed appropriate to handle it as 'controversial'.

Affinity Photo. I added it to the title so it's more clear.

The face of a girl where a fairly large part of her skin is gone and you see the skull. Not realistic, there's no muscle tissue or blood or brain or anything but a skull might not be everybody's cup of tea. https://postimg.cc/BLRn1gcG

On a side note. If you get the update dialog and you click "update now" and it immediately fails, start your application as administrator (Right click, run as administrator) and it'll update.

nailed it! thanks!!

I'm extremely happy to say that you were wrong.. unnamed file and it was saved there

Hey, Designer V2 just crashed on me.. reopened it and all it asked me was to send a bugreport (which I did) but now I lost my work.. Where is the autosave location of V2? They changed that and I can't find it

Oooh "blendmodes", like the rest of the world calls them 😂 Edit: ah no wait, I see what you mean. There's a specific set of 8 blendmodes that the documentation even refers to as "special 8"

special 8?

Oh wow.. I always thought it was Mac only.

Wait..... So let me get this straight.. You are blaming Serif that other applications don't support the affinity file format? Just repeat that a few times in your head and maybe you'll start to understand how silly that is..

I agree.. well except for the vectorstyler thing as I don't have a Mac.. But, it's version 2.0. The first release.. I'm pretty sure some improvements and bufixes are on the way. I already added the lack of snapping as a bugreport (on windows though), you're welcome to add to that post and give it some traction. The real bugs are most likely gonna get most of the attention atm though (as it should).

I've had crashes too. Mostly with installing the content in my account while having the account-dialog open. It hangs first and then it just poofs.

Wow!

Ah that's what I was missing!

You're missing my point At 00:30 you immediately go to add the effect. Don't. Take a look at what I do in my vid at 0:12. I open the warp-group and select the rectangle inside the warp-group and put the effect on that instead of on the warp-group itself.. EDIT: I do think the issue you're running into is not by design and is a bug that should be fixed but this is a way to make it work anyway.

Maybe I'm missing your point but we've had that dialog in V1 for ages...
