I've had this too, a lot. It seems to happen when there is a layer mask in use. If I zoom in and out of the image the missing area moves around, sometime the whole image is not visible.

Haha of course it is, thanks :)

I just finished reading that thread and thought well, there’s no need for my thread now, came here to update and post a link, you beat me to it haha, glad to see I’m not missing something obvious, it’s funny how once you know there is only a certain way to achieve what you want it makes the whole thing more bearable.

Here is a good way to get familiar with the comparison. I made this list on my own time, because I thought Photo seemed a lot more compact, so I wanted to become familiar with what Designer has that Photo does not to make the comparison more equal. Many things can be accomplished in both, but the main thing to remember is that Designer is for vector drawings and layout, and Photo is for photo editing.
 
What’s the same?
  Vector Features: Boolean operations Converting to curves Pixel editing on vectors Clipping and masking vectors Smart shape presets Pen tool and pen modes Gradients on objects Stroke profiling   Photo Features: Layer adjustments Marquee, lasso, and brush selections Common adjustment tools Blend modes   Other: Export persona and slice tool Bitmap pattern fills Power Duplicate Pixel tool Advanced paragraph formatting Over 1,000,000% zoom   What’s different?   Only in Designer: Corner tool Vector pencil tool Vector brush tool Transparency tool Expanding objects Vector brush presets Type on path Symbols Assets Constraints   Only in Photo: Flood select tool Color replacement brush tool Paint mixer brush tool Advanced eraser tools Sponge brush tool Clone brush tool Undo brush tool Median brush tool Inpainting brush tool Mesh warp tool Perspective tool Liquifying tools Development tools Tone mapping tools Etcetera studios

(Takes bow and gets modest) Thank you! Thank you!

Hi all, thought I'd share a few Christmas photos I took and then edited with Affinity Photo
