It hung up when I was trying to select an object on a layer. The layer was an imported image. I used the whole image to position it then wanted to remove everything except the subject. Done it twice now and it fell over both times.

Sometimes a clean reinstall of the NVIDIA drivers helps. Its a check box in custom installation.

A quick check. Go into Edit->Settings->Performance and turn off hardware acceleration and see if that helps.

If this is something you're going to encounter a lot think about investing in 3D LUT Creator. Selective colour on steroids.

Its OK in the release so seems fixed. Nothing happened when I tried to use it.

The rectangular marquee tool isn't working for me. Elliptical seems OK. Windows 11. 2.6.0.3134. Seems OK on the retail. 2.6.0.

Can you post the original raw file? Might be an issue with image quality.

@Affinity Info Bot Fell over again. See if I can do it again later. eac78fb9-bcba-45df-b066-e6ce1b6cff97.dmp

Crashed as soon as I clicked on select subject. Object selection was fine when I restarted. 460a592f-47b5-4e58-89db-4249b02d3561.dmp

Windows 11. I have 6 images and want to copy an object from each image. Opened them all and went through them using object selection and copying the object to a master image. After 4 Photo just spun its wheels and didn't complete the selection. Had to kill it in task manager. When I restarted it spun its wheels at the first one and I had to kill it again. Restarted the PC to clear everything. Seems I have to open one image at a time. Even then its slow. Doesn't seem to be using the GPU. With care I get what I want but the software is getting in the way.

Here it is. Windows 11, Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060. Hardware Acceleration on. I've deleted the files I used in the stack. Only have the tiff as I do the fancy edits in Capture One and just send it a tiff from Photo. Stack2.tiff

Another crash. Doing a selection on a focus stack. db35c093-46e0-42d7-814f-cd0c756d5804.dmp

Its doable but a bit clumsy. I have the overlays in my assets, drag one in as a new layer which I can position using the Move tool then crop once I get something I like.

Crashed trying to select an object. May not have been on a pixel layer but not sure. 81cdd2b3-84ff-4917-8f10-7fdfbd31c71b.dmp

Crash again. Was applying a blur to a layer after masking the subject in a new layer. Was trying to produce the image below, which I got second time. Masks still a bit rough. c07b0b36-16f7-4053-82cd-baad68033854.dmp
