Hi Alex :-) Thanks for replying! The coverage map works! FYI, it was the only thing that worked for antialiasing occured even when I used exct intended sizes on a pixel grid. THANKS :D!!! So helpful.

Hi there, Is it possible to disable font aliasing so that I can use Pixel fonts? Pixel Fonts as in Any help would be great :-)

Thanks MBd and Ronnyb :-)!!! I will give those things a shot. I was using "Best View" but I already had dither and precise clipping turned off. I have changed to nearest neighbour. I already had Use Hardware OpenGL on, but I have also turned on Use only integrated GPU. THANKS so much :-) I will give it a whirl and see if it improves.

Hi there, Is there any way to lessen the strain on my Mac Book when I'm using AP? I currently edit photos at 3000x4000pixels and my 2013 rMBP can get up to 70 and 80 degrees when I use the lasoo for large areas. In order to prevent my mac melting down, I use iStat Menus and set my fan speed to medium whenever I use AP. Doing so keeps my mac at a steady 40-50degrees. But I would prefer not to have to do this, as I guess I'm wearing out my mac's fans by always having them on medium when I use AP. Any suggestions would be great. Cheers

Thanks for replying MBd and onamac :-) Yes, "smart object" is the term I was looking for :)! I hope to hear from more people, as this has puzzled me for a while

Hi there, In Photoshop, you can adjust a layer or image individually by using the whole CTRL+T thing, and you can make it bigger, smaller etc. However, the image only gets rescaled when you press enter or accept the changes. I was wondering if this was also the case with Affinity. I get the feeling that each time I play around with the sizing that AP is actually resampling that raster layer in real-time. Therefore if I play around with a component in a layered image, each time I adjust it it gets downscaled or upscaled. Is this true? Or... do the changes only kick in when I descelect the image? I hope I explained this adequately? :-) Additionally, can I turn raster elements into individual objects that do not get resampled each time I rescale them? I forgot what the term is for that. But it's like making a selfcontained object Any help would be great

Thanks callum :-)

Hi there, Does anyone know of a paint effect filter that I can use within AP. I don't mind buying a proper PS filter if I know it will work in AP. Any help would be great. Cheers!

Thanks for letting me know :-)

Hi there, I was thinking about buying the Super Spray plugin ( trying it in AF, but I wasn't sure if it would work. Has anyone tried the plugin on AF? It is 20 dollars, so its a bit of a gamble spending that money and finding it doesn't work. Best wishes

Oh okay. This truly seems too good to be true. I cannot believe how much I'm liking AP :-D

Hi MEB :-) Does this mean that after a few years Affinity Photo won't work on my MAC? Eek o_O Is there a place where I can see the "timer" of how long my license has left?

Hi there :-) I just wanted to say AF is astonishing. It cost me 60-something Aus dollars, but it seems like a huge bargain. I've been using Photoshop since the 7th grade, and I am so surprised that AF compares so robustly to PS. Will I
