Export--Selection area or selection only, refers to Layer selections (Selected Layers) not Pixel selections (on the Desktop version) Not sure how you say you got it to work previously but I don't have an iPad, someone else may be able to clarify one way or another

Are you talking about a pixel selection? Somewhat confusing as you are using APhoto not Designer (AhPoto does not have Artboard, natively)

Delete extra text box.
carl123 replied to Gwynn Akin's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
It could be an inline object? Try Edit > Defaults > Revert to see if it goes away Alternatively, if you copy a text box to a new document does that grey box still appear? If yes, please save that test document and upload it to the forum -
Weibel install for Photo

It may be "Weibei TC", which is a font Can you restart APhoto and screen capture the message? -

The foreground looks out of focus compared to the background. If you can only get one part in focus, I would expect that to be the foreground. Alternatively, look into the Focus Merge function in APhoto to get it all in focus On the image with the red background, you can clearly see what looks like scratches (or a cobweb!) in the center of the image. If this is coming from your lens, you should try cleaning/polishing it to cure that

From the help.... To crop an image to selection: From the Tools panel on the left, select any Selection Tool. Draw out the selection to set the prospective crop area. Select the Crop Tool. (Optional) Adjust the context toolbar settings. (Optional) Drag a corner or edge handle on the grid to resize the grid to suit, then reposition the grid by dragging within it. From the context toolbar, click Apply or press the Return key to commit the crop. It's 2 moves but much better than not being available at all

Depending on your tablet and if you have a spare button available/unused you can assign that button as the Mouse Wheel then in conjunction with the ALT key that button will allow for canvas rotation using the tablet -

Convert curve to selection
carl123 replied to lrzf's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Use the Selection Brush Tool for this and then hit the Refine button to tweak your selection (if needed) then output as a new layer. (You can switch-off/hide the original layer at this point Lots of tutorials on the Selection Brush Tool on YouTube etc for cutting out objects. -

Unsure what you mean? But you should be using the Selection Brush Tool for this and then hitting the Refine button to tweak your selection (if needed) then output as a new layer and add whatever background you want Lots of tutorials on the Selection Brush Tool on YouTube etc for cutting out objects. Once mastered it's very easy to use on images like yours APhoto file attached so you can change the background if you want HoHoHo.afphoto

dodge and burn with inverted layer
carl123 replied to edward g's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Check the Blend Mode of the Brush (in the context toolbar) is not set to Darken, it should be on Normal. There's been a lot of that lately If not that please supply a full screen screenshot at the point it does not work -
Flexible Shapes behind Text
carl123 replied to deinTobi's topic in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products
Alternatively... Create your trapezium then Layer > Convert to Text Frame Add your text & set shape background colour If adding more or less text just change width of shape to fit See attached file... shapetext.afpub -
Every Publisher files are corrupted!!!!
carl123 replied to gianni.brienza's topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
If you are still getting file corruptions on NEW files (not previous ones) disable pCloud synchronisation for wherever you store you Affinity documents locally Also, don't store/save your Affinity documents directly to pCloud (if that's even possible) Then see if you still get file corruptions on documents created from that point forward (we need to eliminate pCloud synchronisation as a possible cause) Don't forget to periodically backup your documents to another drive (not a synchronised cloud service) just in case you need to restore something later -
Me too but it doesn't But if you create a new blank master, you can apply that with Migrate and it works. Then delete that blank master (optional) Bear in mind Migrate only seems to work for Frame Content (e.g. Text Frames or Picture Frames that have had content added on the corresponding regular page) It does not work for stuff like shapes or images just placed on a Master page
