[EXTREME BAD PERFORMANCE when working with color gradients]

Hi, thanks for your replies. 

After some additional tests it seems, that the problem occurs in combination with a number of more than 15 - 20 Layers within the project. I'll try to create a sample file in order to make it transparent to you. 

Thanks

[EXTREME BAD PERFORMANCE when working with color gradients]

Hi, unfortunately Affinity Photo has an extremely bad performance when I'm working with color gradients, no matter if the project has a big or small file size. Only a small adjustment leads to eating time of up to several minutes.... 😩

Does anyone have a solution ? 

Thanks
