Affinity Photo 2 Studio Presets Not Working
Todd S. replied to Todd S.'s topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
Studio Presets do not control if the Left or Right studios are on display, they just control what Studio panels are in those respective studios Studio presets do not control if the Tools are displayed or hidden, they just control which tools are on display/available for a given Studio Preset. Thanks didn't know that. -

Not able to paint mask layer
Todd S. replied to Todd S.'s topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I'm an idiot. Thanks Todd -
Affinity 1.10.6 Win 11 Hi, I am unable to use the paintbrush to paint the layer mask in black or white. Nothing happens. As the screenshots show, mask layer is selected, blend mode is normal, protect alpha is unchecked. These were the things I found searching the forum concerning this issue. None have resolved the problem. Any help would be appreciated.

I have Windows 11. I was unable to find this update number Windows 11:KB5017264 What I did find was an update for 9/30/2022 (sorry didn't write the number down) It was a windows update and NOT a security update which I also found. I uninstalled the WINDOWS UPDATE and that fixed the problem with the FONT CRASH. Now to try and figure out how to keep my PC from trying to install that update again!

AF has been causing my computer to get the dreaded blue screen. It is freezing up. Right now I'm trying to open a photo and it is stuck on "loading document" with most of my CPU being used on this one application.. All this started with the last update. EDIT #2: Resolved. I found the answer here: Can you try clicking Edit>Preferences>Display and if OpenCL is enabled, try disabling that and restarting Affinity and then try using the app and see how it acts. HOWEVER, i did not find Display in the settings. I did find the OpenCL checkbox in the Performance settings and unchecked the box. AF is now working correctly. Question: What is OpenCL? EDIT: I uninstalled and reinstalled. I am still not able to load anything into it. Still stuck on "loading document". Windows 10 Device name Percision-5510 Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6820HQ CPU @ 2.70GHz 2.70 GHz Installed RAM 32.0 GB (31.9 GB usable) Device ID B1BD1F0E-4DBD-44A1-B36E-EF01894EBC69 Product ID 00342-50648-28401-AAOEM System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Pen and touch No pen or touch input is available for this display I don't know what is going on. Thanks Todd

I have a PDF with nothing but an image. I am unable to open the PDF in Photo, but I can open it in Designer. When open in Designer I exported the file as a PDF and Photo still will not open it. The offending file is attached. The original and the one exported in Designer with "3" added to the file name. Thanks Paul 2nd Journey3.pdf Paul 2nd Journey.pdf

Thank you. I finally figured it out. I had to use a shape over the top of the photo then apply the gradient to the area on the shape I want to fade on the photo. Then go to zero opacity on the side I want the fade. Then drag the box into the photo layer. Presto, faded edge. attached Has to do with Myanmar

Hello, I have been searching far and wide to figure out how to fade one picture into another. I have 2 side by side photos that I want to use to make a banner feature image. I would like to fade the edge of one picture into the other and eliminate the hard edge. I haven't had any luck finding a video tutorial on this for affinity photo. Thanks

Thanks. I gather that the vector crop tool isn't for cropping out the background to resize the newly create document, but rather cropping objects created or placed on the document. After fooling around with it, I determined that I need to create my drawings on artboards rather than just the document then I can resize the artboard using the artboard tool. It is a shame the crop tools do not work the same as in photo. It has been many moons since I have worked in adobe illustrator so I have forgotten just about everything, but if I recall, that is how you crop in that application too.

Hi, I am wanting to get Affinity Designer while it is on sale for 50% off but the "Buy Now" buttons go nowhere. If I get the "Free Trial" version, when I go to purchase the license, will I get the 50% off deal? Thanks Hey webmaster, you should fix this stuff. No telling how much business you guys are losing over a poor user interaction. The rule of thumb is to give up and go...

Hi, In photoshop I could use the various selection tools to copy or delete parts of a picture. Whatever was selected. I have tried this in affinity photo, and when I select an area I want deleted so I can have a transparent area in the photo, it deletes the entire photo. When I want to copy an area on a photo, because I want to duplicate that one area and move it to another spot on the photo, I am unable to. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Thanks Todd
