[Merged Layer Adjustments to render Borders]

Hi @Gnobelix

Thanks for the answer. I didn't know you could move the layer adjustments there. That might help indeed.

The thing is that the original file has a lot more pixel layers (currently 46). Affinity's performance goes down a lot when I try to change something there. I am using a powerful cpu. So I wonder if the adjustments as kind of live modification would drag down the performance further.

Best regards,

Christian

[Layer Outline Effect with Inside Aligment should use underlying image data]

Hi @Gnobelix

Thank you for the answer. But the issue remains

The problem is that the Layer Effect does not use the data of the Pixel Layer for blending.

Blend Mode Luminosity should change the brightness of the underlying picture. The result should look like this:

Do you see what I mean?

I just wanted to adjust the levels of a Pixel Layer inside the layer group. Maye the whole process was not the right way to do it?

[Merged Layer Adjustments to render Borders]

Hi, first of all thank you for the great work. I switched two days ago from Adobe to Affinity. But I also found a bug already

The setting is like this: A Pixel Layer has a Color Balance Adjustment and a Level Adjustment. The Pixel Layer is inside a Layer Group. The Layer Group has an Outline Layer Effect and a disabled Mask.

The Pixel Layer is bigger then the Working Area:

Now I want to merge the two Adjustments down.

Here is what happens...

After the first Adjustment has been Merged Down the Pixel Layer got cropped to the working area:

After the second Adjustment has been Merged Down the Pixel Layer got a rendered border:

The border has become part of the pixel image:

Please try it by yourself. The test file is attached. I am using version 1.9.0.932

Best regards,

Oops. I thought it was the bug report section already... Thanks for the hint

[Layer Outline Effect with Inside Aligment should use underlying image data]

Hi again. I found another bug

Setting is like this: A Pixel Layer with an Outline Effect and a Mask. The Pixel Layer is bigger then the working area.

This is how the Outline Effect looks like:

Because the Alignment is Inside the Pixel Layer it should use the underlaying pixel data. But actually it isnt. The result looks like this:

To achieve the desired effect, I need to create a second layer, in this case the Ellipse Layer, move the Layer Effects there and set Fill Opacity to 0%:

The example files are attached. I am using version 1.9.0.932

Best regards,
