[Affinity Photo Windows Customer Beta - 1.9.1.943]

I haven't tried all the claimed fixes but the Focus Merge is working (Very Fast) with hardware acceleration on.

The whole application seems to have come alive.

 

Many thanks to the Team.

@Mark  Thanks for the feedback.

I am using the latest from Nvidia 461.40-desktop-win10-64bit-international-dch-whql. Nothing special.

Not even overclocking.

For some reason this card does seem to perform well in benchmarks.

Photo is virtually unusable with hardware acceleration enabled.

This was trying to do a focus merge.

The log file shows loads of CL errors including:

 

[OpenCL] Error -5 (1152): Could not enqueue write buffer!

@Venyer. Have you tried switching off hardware accelaration. Others are having similar issues

[1.9 slow]

"New focus merge" was also very slow with open Cl enabled. Switching it off resolved the probem.
