veles got a reaction from iconoclast in Affinity Photo: Fine tuning rotation jitter and problems when using shift modifier for horizontal/vertical lines
👍Yep, that's what I figured:

You could create guidelines for the tiles or simply use a grid.

Hi Veles,
Something like the following settings should allow you to achieve your aim.
Note the blue bar on the rotation setting, you can see range of rotation for which the randomness of rotation occurs. If you turn reduce the jitter value, you can preview the rotation for setting your range.

veles got a reaction from DelN in In the style of AI-generated Art (a bit of Role Reversal here)
I like it. It reminds me a bit of Dave McKean's illustrations.

veles reacted to DelN in In the style of AI-generated Art (a bit of Role Reversal here)
I've been checking out AI-generated art like Dall-E 2 and Midjourney, which I love. Its so dark and nightmarish.
So I thought that I would do a kind of 'role reversal' in Affinity Photo and create an image in the style of AI-generated art...

veles reacted to Callum in Is there a quick way to use multiple repeating patterns in a single-layer workflow?
Hi Veles,
Unfortunately I don't think there is any way for your workflow to work as efficiently in Affinity due to the lack of a fill tool that allows for filling with patterns etc. The closest work around you'd be able to get to this would be following a workflow similar to the one seen in the below video.

veles reacted to R C-R in Copy-paste/cut-paste of a selection made in a pixel layer doesn't work.
From the Image layers help topic there is (among other things) this:
Not mentioned in that topic, when an Image layer is selected with the Move Tool, the Context toolbar has a drop-down menu option that allows you to adjust the DPI & Scale numerically to whatever you want (including different values for the x & y directions), & a button to reset the image to its original size. There is also a "Replace Image" button there.

veles reacted to Old Bruce in Copy-paste/cut-paste of a selection made in a pixel layer doesn't work.
Completely valid question. Only took me a year (or more) to figure it out. It is a layer with an 'image' in it. Usually the 'image' is a PNG or JPEG or TIFF, which are pixel formats so you would expect them to be capable of having pixel selections cut and or copied. The pixel selection is set to the document's pixel grid (DPI/PPI) and the "image's" Pixels may not line up to that. All the pixels in the Image Layer are kept until export or rasterization of the layer. This means you can change the size without much problem.
Neat trick is you can colour an Image layer.

That was the problem. Thank you very much. I apologize if this sounds stupid, but what's the difference? I had no idea there was such thing as an image layer. I just assumed the layer was automatically named that way.

Check the Layers panel and make sure the layer says (Pixel). It sounds like you probably have an (Image) layer instead, and you'll need to Rasterize it before you can work on the individual pixels.
