I would like to be able to open folders on the device directly in a studio in order to be able to insert images into the document directly from Affinity Publisher. I know a similar function from code editors for programming, where you can see all files in a folder on the side in a sidebar and open them quickly and easily. It would be very similar to the Stock Studio, but with a folder that you open from your device instead of a search query on Pexels or Pixabay. Especially for larger projects with a lot of images this could be helpful. I have attached a file that hopefully makes it clear what I mean. Image-Studio

Hello, I think I found an error in Affinity Photo. I use Affinity Photo in the latest version (1.10.5.1342) with Windows 11 in the latest version (21H2, Build 22000.556). In the Affinity programs, you can quickly and easily set the brush width and hardness by pressing Ctrl + Alt (on Windows) and moving the mouse up, down, right or left. There is also the possibility to rotate the entire document by pressing the alt key and rotating the mouse wheel. If you press the Ctrl key, the whole document rotates in (I think 15°) steps. If you now set the brush size or hardness in this way, then rotate the document and then want to change the brush size or hardness again, the directions in which you have to move the mouse to the adjusting size/hardness are constantly reversed. It also happens that both values are adjusted at the same time if you move the mouse only in one direction. Between rotating the document and adjusting the brush, I always released the Ctrl and Alt keys. But it also happens if you press them continuously. By the way, the error occurs not only in Photo, but also in Designer and Publisher with all kinds of brushes (including erasers, selection or restoration). The error is reproducible and also occurs in new documents. However, the document is not completely empty, but must contain at least one object. I only noticed the error since the update to 1.10.5. But I'm not sure about that. The error only occurs when rotating the document in increments using Ctrl + Alt + mouse wheel. I think there is a conflict with the keyboard shortcuts. If you want to reproduce the error, follow the instructions: Create a new document in Affinity (Photo, Publisher, Designer). Paint something in the document with a brush. Press Ctrl + alt and move the mouse up, down, right or left to change the brush in size and hardness. Press Ctrl + alt and rotate the mouse wheel to rotate the document to the right or left and paint something again. Adjust the brush size again (release the Ctrl and Alt keys in between or press continuously, bolth works). Now, the error will occur. If not, turn the document another 2-3 times and change the brush settings and paint something. In the attached video, the error can also be seen again. The error.mp4

@BiancaCopeland You could use the background-eraser. But it's not really a solution

@Gabe I am using an iPad Air 3 with the latest version of iPad OS and the latest version of Affinity Photo. I am having the same problem in Affinity Designer doing the same process. I've found that the problem is more common when the process is more complex. So when I add and remove parts of the selection, refine and add something to the background or foreground, the problem arises more.

When I make, selection, and refine it and apply it in the latest version of Affinity Photo for iPads, Affinity Photo crashes in almost all cases, regardless of the image used. IMG_0187.MP4
