- No. it happens a few times per day. Mouse.

Hi! In the Beta, using the inline paiting results oft in a strange behaviour: The the painting "jumps" to another part of the screen. See screenshot. Regards

Hi! Just lost another file. Affinity was saving an afphoto. FAiled.. and I lost my work. It mostly happen with big file. Unfortunately, Affinity Photo has serious stability issue making it unusable for prod. Hope to see a new stable version soon. Regards

Thanks! I did not think you could recover it using the Mac version.. I have a Mac too for this case. Sorry, I can not reproduce nor remenber how it happened.. Actually, I wish it will not happen anymore ! I remenber they was a requester saying something the access has being lost. I'm using an external disk but did not have any kind of issue. I also did a disk and filesystem check and everything was fine, Regards

Bug: Do the following: 1. Open a pictures without layers. As an example, just a raw. 2. Apply a Live Layer -> Distorction -> Lens distortion. 3. Apply some distortion correction. As an example -5.%. It worked great for my lens 4. Select the Impating Brush Tool 5. Zoom in und remove something. -> You will notice that the brush is applied at the WRONG place. Regards

Hi! Something is wrong with the Windows version... I got running both latest beta on Mac and Windows. my machines are: - MBP 2012, i7, 16 Gb RAM, integarted GPU - Razer Blade 15 2020, i7-10875H, RTX 2080 Super Q, 64 Gb RAM Now, on Mac Affinity is a lot of faster as on PC. Despite the hardware of the PC being at least 10 times faster.. Example of stuff being faster: Inpainting, saving, responsivness.. Anyone experiencing the same behaviour ? Regards

Hi! 50% of the time, using the Ctrl-Alt shortcuts to change the brush size/hardness change the position of the mouse pointer randomly at the first click. After that changing the size/hardness by moving the mouse position is an hard task. -> It's super smooth und intuitive in PS CS6. Painful in Affinity. Please fix: -> No mouse cursor jump when Ctrl+Alt+Click -> smooth change of the settings.

Hi I got a reproduceable crash when merging 3 exposure to an HDR. it's working great with the last production (1.8) release I can provide you the files .. contact me in PM if needed. Regards

Hi! One update to today. I got the latest beta (1.9.0.864). I lost again a file while saving to tiff. the file was NOT bigger as 4gb. I uploaded the corrupted file there: https://u.pcloud.link/publink/show?code=kZCLYLXZ3ET8lp6WoEhyK0bIcCY2053hL95X PS: I must have lost about 1 day work on the week because of this issue. Regards

Hi! Thanks for your reply No. However... I stop using tiff with Affinity for now. I can not really confirm if the corruption only happen when the tiff got bigger that 4gb because I was not aware of this issue at that time. Tiff are practical because I can see them in CaptureOne. Now, I am using afphoto only. -> Tiff are really required for my workflow Sure. Keep going Yes. it's clear but still not "logic" for a 10 years PS user. I think I will manage I notice it's possible to disable the GPU acceleration in the latest beta so I did disabled it. -> Hope to see a solid implementation coming. Keep going (fixing) !

Hi ! https://www.dropbox.com/sh/6truasjt646z9mg/AACIX3Ej5g1jkHuyMTThFJfca?dl=0&fbclid=IwAR1mIh-lEwH9b28j7Q4goHWsCSHmqAEzf0XtW5jYmhbH8H9VCjrdaPDNIAU&preview=_DSF0350.DNG Affinty can not open the 400 MPX GFX 100 RAW. Could it be fixed ? Regards

Well.. I have been using afphoto file because tiff were problemating.. Now, Affinty failed to save my work as afphoto and I just lost half a day word. -> You should really fix the software it's great but just unusable for work. -> PS: Was using the final release, non beta.

Good morning I installed the latest Beta (1.9.832).. and it's smoother and more stable. Looking forward the final release.. There are still some glitch -> it did crash, and lasso line are still slow. Keep going!

I then just added a curve, then added a point of the curve.. and Affinity crashed. Probably OpenCL related.. (?). I hope the next version will be much more usable. - 2 minutes later: Restarted Affinty, reload the file, added my curve (no crash). Affinty crashed while saving the picture (in .afphoto).. - I mean this is really painful to work with Affinty for now.. As a production tool, I constatly have to switch back to PS CS6 on my 8 years old mac.. because it's faster and just never crashed.

About the layer. How could you explain this behaviour ? A desactivated layer influce the result of the picture.. This is very confusing to me.

Hi! Thanks for your reply. I will do my best as well. My hardware i7 10875H, 64 Gb RAM. Intel GFX and RTX 2080 Super Q Usually 26mpx pictures, so about 4000*6000. Sometime, bigger panoramas with 12 000 * 18 000 pixels. Using lasso is smart, but pressing shift to get straight line is painful slow. A screenshot will not show much. It a video is better.. I can just wait for the next release for this.. I am currently using the panel on the top and it's ok. It usually happen with the big pano. The last corrupted file was 2.99 Gb. However, even if the pictures is too big for a tiff, it should pop up an error and NOT corrupt the file.. Not yet. As I already experienced some difficulties, I was not in the mood to beta test. Do you have any release date ? Ok. Same here.. If the Tiff can not handle it, Affinity Photo should warm user and propose an alternative format.. but not corrupt the file without error! Sure. Open a "normal" photo from your favorite camera. Most of the time, the picture is not "leveled". So the black is not black and the white not white. Using the level tool you can level it. Fine. If one press the alt key while adjusting the level, Affinity display everything black and the cliping pixel. Try: Add a level layer, go to master, press alt and adjust the black level. You will notice everything is black and when you adjust the level up, you wou get the clipping. Same true for the while level. Now, one as the possibility to adjust the level per channel, and one can use the same alt-key function too see the clipping. However, the per channel clipping function only works IF the master level is >0%. This is a bug, IMO. PS does it differently. Ok. So I'm crossing finger for the upcomming version! Any date ? Thanks for your reply. Regards

Hello, I am using Affinty to replace PS for about one mounth. It works mostly, but there are many glitch which feel weird. I will list a few: - Select (lasso) is extremely slow. The lasso is late compare to the mouse pointer. Sometimes is also does not work: You draw your selection, but nothing is selected, you redraw it, it works.. This kind of function was already instant on an Amiga 500.. how can it be slow on a modern PC ? - Change the brush size using the mouse (using Ctrl-Alt) is totally weird. Sometime the position on the pointer jumps to somewhere else. And even it it does not change, its a total painful experience. One ends up using the brush properties in the tool bar on the top - Exporting to Tiff (16bit with layers) usually produce a corrupted tiff and the picture is lost - Performance is sub optimal. PS CS6 on a MBP 2012 feels way faster than Affinity on a PC i7 8 cores/64Gb/RTX 2080 - I deeply dived in mask.. still could not figure out how the works. I could not thing about any logical function.. Sometime it works, sometimes it does, sometimes, it remove parts of the pictures.. -> Is it possible using one mask, to mask the content of a group ? If yes, how -> Would it be possible to add the option: "Mask behaviour like in PS" `? - Open a big tiff, resize, correct prespective and then flatten -> Affinity can not save this picture anymore. -> Work lost. -> the same without flatten -> it works - The Level tools only show the per channel clipping, if the master level is >0. - Afffinty crahes a lot. mainly while loading big file, Inpainting or just like this. Questions: Are others experiencing such issue ? Will the usability of the software be improved anytime soon ? Regards

It has been also optional with Adobe.. Feedback: Always keep the normal regitration model. Will immediately leave Affinity (or any other software company doing this) otherwise.

This sounds really really bad as it was THE reason to move away from Adobe. Crossing finger you are not turning in Adobe.. but preventively searching right now for an alternative to Affinity Photo..

Hi! Merge HDR using the GTX 2080 systematically crashes. However, switchting to Intel IRIS is fine. using Windows 10 and latest Affinity 1.85 Nvidia Driver 456.36 GTX RTX 2080 Super Max Q I can send to the team file and any log. Regards

ok

Yes. "Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB". Is it an issue in Affinity or in the MacOS ? Ok. Thanks! Cheers

Disabling Metal computation slow down general performances BUT the path tool dod not crash.

Hi! This is a MacBook Pro 2012 13' i7. I guess the GPU is super lame! bit is working. It does help a bit usually when application support it. It's either a bit faster or as fast as the COU (but keep the COU free for other tasks). I uploaded the pictures as well as a screencast from the crash. Thanks. Keep me up to date!

Hi! I've been using the patch tool as well as inpainting on some pictures this week. It tend to crash quiet oft. I can provide (private to developers) a pictures which trigger 100% the issue. In attachment, you can find the MacOs crash reports. Moreover, the patch tool is about 10 times slower as PS CS6. request: Fix the crash optimise it. A 8 years old software ist so much more optimise! System: MacOs High Sierra, MBP 2012 13' - i7 16Gb Regards crash report.rtf
