I had this problem and restarting Affinity Photo 2 did the trick

Hi Ron, thanks for the reply. All I can say is AAAAAAGH ! The problem seems to have disappeared after a reboot. I should have tried that first. I can't reproduce the problem any more; but I will keep on trying. I have a RTX 3060 with 12Gb and the latest Nvidia drivers.

Please move this topic to Affinity Photo. Placed in Affinity Designer by mistake.

I selected the Perspective live filter and then while placing the corners of the grid into place (Planes=Single, Mode=Destination, Blend=Normal) the underlying images and some controls on the right of the screen become corrupted. Affinity becomes unusable after that. It does not hang but all the images in all the tabs display incorrectly. It has happened a few times. See the attached image. You can see from the image at the bottom right of the screen what it should look like. Windows 11, 64Gb Memory. Affinity Photo 2.0.0 (no updates available). To reproduce the error: I have 2 documents open. In document 1, I used the "Perspective Tool" to isolate an image. Copied and pasted the image into Document 2 above an existing image in the Layer panel. With the copied image selected in the Layer panel, selected Layer -> New Live Filter -> Distort -> Perspective. Then poitioned the copied image over the underlying layer using the corner handles of the perspective grid. As I am positioning the corners the corruption occurs. Not always with the first keystroke. I could be after a few corner repositions. Regards Greg
