Yep! This one solved it! Not sure why i changed it in the first place, can this happen accidentally? Is there a shortcut or something? Anyway, i put it on 100% now and it works again! Also the red-brush-mask thing has a much stronger red now. Thanks everyone for your help! Appreciate it!

So i just made a quick screen recording of my Affinity Photo when trying to use the Inpainting Tool. Maybe someone can spot my mistake! And thank you all for your help so far! video2.mp4

I tried multiple images including tifs, pngs and jpgs. Also different sizes of images, but none of them work. I probably just changed some tiny stetting by accident, because a few days ago it was working just fine, but i can't find which one it would be. I checked all the things people recommend when this tool doesn't work (select the layer, make sure its a pixel layer, flow greater 0 and so on).

I also verified that, i have a opacity/hardness/flow of 100% and tried widths ranging from 25 to 250px. But no visible effect appears on the image.

Hi there, I am having the exact same problem. The 'Inpaiting tool' tool just stopped working from one day to another. I have not changed anything at all, i tried restarting the software multiple times, clicking all the reset buttons in the preferences panel. I checked that the layer is selected and i also check that it is an pixel layer (i even clicked on 'Rasterise...', just to make sure), but it still does not work. I am running version 1.8.3 on macOS Catalina 10.15.5
