See if this helps https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/28038-darker-pics-in-affinity-photo-beta-on-windows/ -
Yes it's much more powerful and a welcome addition but that simple undo / redo button is so much quicker and something we have all got used to over the years. Removing it was like losing a life long friend. At least consider giving us the option to add it back to the interface under customisation options.

As a workaround, for now, you can draw a circle shape from the centre point, using Ctrl+Shift (or just Ctrl for an ellipse) Then use Ctrl+Shift+o to create a selection from the shape, then delete the shape, leaving just the selection But I agree, having those modifier keys added to the selection tool would be very useful

Just to add to this Gradient Overlay bug If you click on "None" or the white color circle that will also crash the program (picture attached) -
Customizing Tool Bar and Tool Tips
carl123 replied to DavidW's topic in [ARCHIVE] Photo beta on Windows threads
Double clicking the magnify icon on the Tool Bar gives, Zoom 100% If working on a photograph - double clicking the picture on the background layer in the layers tab, generally, gives Zoom to Fit -
Just got my cross hairs back (not sure how) but for the Pen they only work consistently when I disable Windows Ink. (But that stops the Pen pressure from working, for me) Interestingly, if I reenable Windows Ink and use the Mouse to start drawing I get the cross hairs, I can then pick up my Pen and continue working on the document and the cross hairs will remain but as soon as I move the cursor off the document to (e.g.) a menu I lose the cross hairs and they don't come back when the Pen is returned to the document. I have to reuse the mouse to reactivate the cross hairs and then the Pen will work with them again. (Just adding that information for the Developers, if it helps) One more thing to add is that the cross hairs do NOT appear if your brush size it too small and/or you have zoomed out of the document a lot. I think this is by design rather than a bug. But just be aware of this when trying to fix this problem on your PC and always use a big brush size whilst testing stuff.

Key Modifiers and Overlay Rotation
carl123 replied to MarvinR's topic in [ARCHIVE] Photo beta on Windows threads
1. See this thread https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/28705-brush-tool-dimension/ 2. I think that's a known bug being worked on -
It could do. I have a Wacom and was playing with this yesterday. At one point I got the cross hairs to show on my pen but I had to disable Windows Ink to do it. But disabling Windows Ink stops any pen pressure settings from working on my PC in AP. So I gave up. Will probably look at this again only when the final product is released as the cross hairs are not that important to me. PS I also have a mouse attached to this PC and the mouse, yesterday, displayed the cross hairs correctly but with all my mucking about yesterday I seem to have broken that, as today I get no cross hairs when using the mouse Like I said not important to me at this time but it may help you investigate this further

Not sure if this will help or not as I do not know how you work exactly, but if you.... Select > All (Ctrl+A) ...then items which are hidden are not selected in the Layers panel. So as you scroll through them the locked items tend to stand out as they are deselected. Which makes finding them a bit quicker. 1. Not much use if you routinely lock all items, but could be useful if you only have a few locked items. 2. You may have to expand the Layer to see the item, but hopefully you know at least what layer the item is on.

Maybe a new, selectable, checkbox option in Preferences, could be added, like... When merging visible layers delete old layers Then people can get the function to work how they are used to it working, or like it does now

Resize document to 0px will crash program
carl123 replied to carl123's topic in [ARCHIVE] Photo beta on Windows threads
Since 1.5.0.38, resizing the document to 0px no longer crashes the program as now the 0px value is automatically changed to 1px, so this is fixed. But you can still resize the canvas to 0px which will crash the program I mention it because the list of fixes in 1.5.0.38 includes • Fixed Resize Document crash if any value is zero But only half the problem is fixed so just ensuring someone has another look at the canvas resizing to 0px bug -

Brush Tool Dimension
carl123 replied to Daniele Salvatore's topic in [ARCHIVE] Photo beta on Windows threads
> "But with a pen that doesn't work, you cannot press the two buttons at the same time" Works for me, the pen tip counts as one of the buttons and your "right click" button as the other -
Affinity Designer for Windows has launched!
carl123 replied to TonyB's topic in News and Information
Bored now. Even without the introductory special price the product represents excellent value for money. If you want to complain about broken promises go talk to the politicians. PS All the Serif Plus range of products are now just £19.99. Maybe you all should start a new thread complaining that you had to pay a lot more for them many months/years ago http://www.serif.com/index.aspx Time for beer
