Since the error is still present in the current beta version of Affinity Designer and has not yet been fixed, I would be very happy if this was forwarded to the developers.

Unfortunately, the error has not been fixed in the current beta version of Affinity Designer 2.6.0. (3058). See my video in the attachment

The function of the selection brush (W) is not always clear to me.
When I use the selection brush via the toolbar, I never see when something is being added or subtracted.
The mode display (top left) also has no visual added value.
When I add or subtract a path from an image in Affinity Photo, it is not clearly displayed in the mode.
I can click the icons at the top in the mode, but when I press the "Alt" key combination to subtract, the mode at the top does not change.
A "+" or "-" display for the selection brush would also be good, so that you know when the selection is being added or subtracted.

Thank you GarryP, maybe a moderator could copy the post into the appropriate category.

I have a question about isolating a photo with Affinity Photo 2.6 Beta.
I would like to isolate a photo perfectly. Affinity Photo recognizes the object well,
but unfortunately I cannot refine the hair tips at the top. As soon as I use refine,
the entire selection around the object is refined. But I only want to refine the hair tips at the top. How could I solve something like this with Affinity Photo?Is the image quality too bad for an isolator? I took the photo with the Canon R10 (RF35mm F1.8 Macro IS STM), but unfortunately the edges of the sweater are very unclean.
I would be very grateful for a few tips.

Unfortunately, that is the reason why I am now using the current version of Beta 2.6 and Quicklook also works in some cases.
Although I have to say that Affinity and Quicklook still need to be improved significantly.

Hello dcarvalho84,
I've now tested the current version of Rightfont and Typeface. The Typeface 3 APP for the Mac is super fast and I think it's perfect for my purposes.
Both programs definitely have their advantages and disadvantages,
although I really like Typeface a lot.
"I think another advantage of Typeface is the synchronization with Google Fonts"
Unfortunately, I didn't really find that in Typeface.
Is it easy to synchronize Google Fonts?
Thank you again for your recommendation.
I'm going to test Typeface 3 for another 15 days and then buy it. Thank you dcarvalho84

Hello dcarvalho84,
I've been looking for a good font manager for Mac for a long time.
I have a MacMini M1 (16GB RAM / 512 GB SSD) with macos 15.1.
Are there any other users of Typeface APP here in the forum?
Can you recommend the font manager?

Problem already been reported to Serif?
-
Is the problem already known to Serif? Or has the problem already been reported to Serif?
-
Unfortunately, we have the same problem opening the files as in the video above.
Now it will take forever until Serif solves the problem. The errors are all logged one by one and passed on to the developers (I hope), but a solution takes forever. 🤨
-
I'm curious to see whether new functions will be added with the 2.6 version.
I'm very excited.😀

I can understand if there is a new interface from Apple for the new Quicklook function and it takes time to implement it in the software.
I have other programs that run on macOS Sequoia, where the preview graphics
including Quicklook are always displayed perfectly.Even with Affinity Designer 1.10.8 there was always the problem that the Quicklook graphics for files with the extension .afdesign were always displayed very small and pixelated.
Now with Affinity Designer 2.5 I am really annoyed that it is no longer possible to see the preview images at all and a Quicklook function is also not possible.
It's a shame, I was always very happy with version 1.10.8 and the new functions really convinced me to switch to version 2.5. But at the moment everything is not running so well.
-
Unfortunately, the complete file preview for the individual Affinity programs (example file abc.afdesign) is now missing under macOS 15 Sequoia.
Under Mac OS 14, there were still small preview images as soon as you pressed the space bar. This preview
was super small and pixelated compared to other programs, but now the preview is completely missing.
Is the Quicklook function no longer available in Serif?
-
Hello, I wanted to ask if the entire Serif Suite has already been optimized for macOS 15 Sequoia.
I would like to update to the current macOS 15 Sequoia this evening and wanted to ask if there are still problems with the individual programs such as Designer, Photo or Publisher. -
I don't think Super Vectorizer Pro is that good. I bought it for the Mac, but https://de.vectorizer.ai/
works 1000 times better. The results with Vectorizer.AI are really perfect. I've tried different vector programs, but in the end I always end up with Vectorizer.AI -
I really ask myself how something like this can happen? I've had the impression twice that two different formats look somehow different. The first time I noticed it was with a logo. As abra100pro has already written, it's about accuracy. Unfortunately I no longer have the different logos. But I noticed the behavior too. At first I thought why did you change the logo.

Recently I've seen that various errors are being reported to Serif via the forum. The users here in the forum are really great.
Unfortunately, I've also seen that Serif hasn't been doing much recently. Various errors that have been known since version 2 are simply not being fixed. In the forum it says that they will be forwarded to the developers. Why is that? Summer break? -
It would of course be a dream if things ran better with the new operating system. The start times for the Affinity apps are around 20 seconds for me. I use the MacMini M1 with 16 GB RAM and 512 SSD under the current version of macOS Sonoma 14.
How well is the beta version of MacOS Sequoia running for you overall?
Does it run faster than Sonoma? -
Hello,
I just tried out the current Affinity Designer Beta 2.5.0 (2449), but unfortunately the error I described in the first post has not yet been fixed.
It's a shame, I was actually really looking forward to the next update. =(
-
Hello,
I somehow have the impression that errors that were fixed in one version are present again in the next update. How can that be?
If I draw a rectangle in Affinity Designer Beta 2.5.0 (2437) and create a color gradient in this rectangle, it works without any problems. But if I select a color on the color palette and drag this color into the gradient, Affinity Designer crashes completely.

Hello Hangman,
Yes, I had already read the error in the forum with version 2 back then
and didn't want to make a special post.I think the error has been around for a long time, but it was always there until version 2.5
not yet fixed. You can see since when the error was logged.Maybe the problem will be solved and it will be there in a next update.
Thank you

If I draw a rectangle in Affinity Designer and then create a gradient, it is displayed correctly in Affinity Designer. Now I want to select a color from the color palette. I now drag this color onto the line using Prague and Drop, Affinity Designer immediately crashes. This didn't work in Affinity Designer 2.4.2 and also in the current beta 2.5. But with 1.10.8 this always works without any problems. Is this problem already known? If not, could this be included so that the problem is fixed in a next update?
Importing avif files in Affinity Designer or Photo is not possible

Hello, why is the new image data format not supported?
Image data formats: AVIF is the new JPEG + PNG + WebP
Is there a plan to support this format?
I would be happy to receive an answer
