  1. The thing with Wacom’s, like my Intuos4 for example, is that all the buttons, both physical and virtual, can be customised to each individual active app. So the exact position of a specific short cut could be almost anywhere after an individual user has customised their setup.
  2. If you are using APhoto then try; On the canvas have the Masking layer above the image of the bird. In the Layer stack, have the Masking layer directly above the bird layer. With the Masking Layer selected go to; Filters > Colours > Erase white Paper. In the Layers panel with the Masking layer still selected; right click and choose Mask to Below. Or drag the Masking layer’s thumbnail onto the thumbnail of the bird and let go. That should do it.
  3. @kat The key that invoked Precision Mode will be a toggle so if you know where it is; Wacom Pen, Tablet or Onscreen button just press it again. If you don’t know or can’t find which it was then disconnect the Tablet and then Logout/In of you User account or Restart the computer. Then it might be as well to go through the Tablets settings and find where the Precision key has been set, and note it’s location or remove it.

  5. As noted above if “Import PSD smart objects where possible” is on in APhoto or Designer the PSD fails to import correctly. But to get it looking right it’s mostly just a matter of rearranging the order of things in the Layers panel; In Group Base there is a white pixel Layer called Base, that needs to be used as a Mask for the Group Base by dropping it onto the thumbnail of said Group. In Group Base > Group MockUp 1 there are three "Texture" layers which need to be puled out and placed above Group MockUp 1 in Group Base. With the three Texture layers still selected move them to the right some to correctly reposition them where they should be. And the Layer Shadow needs to be puled out of Group Base and placed below said Group in the Layers panel.
  6. I wonder, did you have the original, and now corrupted file, on any form of removable drive? Or in a location linked to a Cloud storage/syncing service? In the past these have caused many posts here about files no longer opening, with cryptic warnings similar to yours. And whilst it’s unfortunate this happened, it’s good to hear that you have a workflow that’s robust enough to withstand the app falling down like this!
  7. Originally a typo on NotMyFault’s part!☺️ That should have read ‘Live Distortion Filter’. A tab for Live Filters can be found at the bottom of the Layers Panel. Or they can be accessed from the Menubar in Photo: Layers > New Live Filter Layer (and in this case) > Distort > Ripple… or Mesh Warp… But I rather like the idea of a Life Distortion filter! Actually that may just be beer!
  8. Click on the small dot under where it says Opacity in you first screenshot.
  9. Not sure I can offer much more here I'm afraid, as I’m unable to replicate what you are seeing. We are both on different hardware and macOS… that may have a bearing on why I'm not seeing this, possibly??? Have you tried the “old school” first fix, that of restarting your system?
  10. First thought, dose Designer currently have permission to record your screen ticked in your OS Privacy & Security settings? Unticked, and Designer is confined to only selecting colours from within the app UI.
  11. Open the RAW file in Apple Photos as if you were going to Edit it in Apple Photos. At the top right of Apple Photos’s Edit window is an ‘…’ click this and choose; ‘Edit In Affinity Photo’. That should bring it directly into Affinity Photo’s Develop Persona.
  12. Actually it happens in all three Affinity apps. And it gets more noticeable if you start to push things in higher dpi documents!
  13. Thank you R C-R🤩 I am humbled by your attention to the details that escaped me!
  14. And to get you started, here’s some Assets based on your example. Plumbing.afassets
  15. Yes, it’s perhaps a little odd that? Quick “fix” is to open document setup, make sure resample is unselected, but otherwise don’t change anything, and just hit resize. You should now get solid blue right to the edges when zooming in. It is still worth noting though that at normal viewing size that initial “antialiased” edge would be invisible.
