Looking For Help
Leigh replied to Johnny Chin's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Perhaps you'll get more support by posting your Indiegogo link on forums and facebook pages dedicated to Origami. If Origami Enthusiasts find your models interesting, i'm sure they'll support you :) -

Apple's Map API will only work with apps distributed through the Mac App Store, so it's only available to the MAS version. -
Mask from Channel
Leigh replied to pacomar's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Hi :) You could try creating a Mask from a Channel by going to the Channels Panel and right clicking on the desired channel and selecting Create Mask Layer. You then need to create a Curves Adjustment Layer and make your Mask a child of the adjustment layer. -
Use of Colour
Leigh replied to AllyP's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Hi AllyP, welcome to the forums! Without seeing the image it's hard to advise what to do, but if light has washed out part of the image you could use a Levels adjustment layer to adjust the White Level of the image. You could also use a Shadows/Highlights adjustment layer too. The built-in help will give you more information about the Flood Fill Tool, Eye Dropper and Paint Brush Tool. This can be found by going to Help > Affinity Photo Help Hope this helps! -
Inpainting Settings
Leigh replied to evtonic3's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
If the adjustment layer is below the empty layer you're using to "inpaint", then it should work. Is it possible to share your document with us? -
Import an eps file
Leigh replied to djharr's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Welcome to the forums djharr! It sounds like the file was created and exported from Illustrator. EPS files normally exported from Illustrator will contain many bitmaps and a comment containing a copy of the Illustrator document. Illustrator ignores the EPS part and opens the Illustrator document - this explains why Illustrator is able to open the EPS file without any problems. Our apps can only read the EPS portion of the file. Is it possible to download the file from Shutterstock in another format, such as PDF or SVG? -
print negative
Leigh replied to bnoel's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Welcome to the forums bnoel! There are several ways to recreate a negative style image. You could use ⌘ + I on your layer or use an Invert Adjustment Layer. You could also use a Levels Adjustment Layer by moving the Black Level slider to right and the White Level Slider to the Left - using this method gives you more control :) Hope this helps! -
Layer Mask transparency
Leigh replied to mak's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Hi mak, welcome to the Affinity forums :) You can paint in grey to control opacity but you can also use the Erase Brush Tool, Gradient Tool and more to control a Mask's opacity. You can also press Q to jump into the Quick Mask Mode. More information can be found by typing Quick Mask selections into Affinity Photo's help - Help > Affinity Photo Help. -

Designer Beta - grid not return to normal
Leigh replied to Sim2's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on macOS threads
Ticking Use Automatic Grid should take you back to the standard Grid Layout. You could also change the First Axis to 0° and the Second Axis to 90° when Standard is selected. -

ghosts in AD
Leigh replied to Oval's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
MEB is correct. My objects were overlapping slightly instead of touching each other. -

Swashes
Leigh replied to Bobaffinity's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
You would normally use Swashes from OpenType fonts but you could use the Pen tool to create your own.
