I would also like to be able to access my .pat files. Thank you.

Thank you! This worked!

The only complaint I have with Affinity Design and Photo is that I would like to use products such as https://creativemarket.com/PinkCoffie/863256-AI-Gold-Foil-Kit-Essentials-Bonus%21or AP plugins, however, sadly, I do not find they are compatible with Affinity Design nor Affinity Photo. Because the above isn't compatible, today I attempted to make my own foil style with the attached. Are there directions somewhere I am not finding that shows how to create styles? I tried Select All > create style, as well I tried Select All > Add Style From Selection. Neither worked.

Hi, Two examples: Letters & Embossing styles and Dream Metals. But I get the "The file appears to be corrupted" with nearly every file I attempt to download. I unzip then Affinity Designer opens and the error message pops up. Thanks!

Each time I attempt to download any of the resources (aside from a few brushes) at http://www.miguelboto.com/affinity/resources/ I receive an error. In example, I download a style from the mentioned URL and an error message which reads; "the file appears to be corrupted" after I unzip the file. This happens with each download. I feel I must be doing something wrong since these are being offered on the Resource page. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

Thank you, MBd! However, I have tried this, yet it doesn't give a "seamless" or "realistic" look. Perhaps it is the way in which I executed this task. I do understand the gradient in PS is different. The gradient used for blending images (black to transparent) works beautifully. Alfred, I had a similar issue. AD froze and then crashed.

Alfred, thank you! That answered blending two images. I appreciate your help! If anyone has an answer to the second part of my question: "blending one or more images onto a background (not using blending modes). In other words, blending the edges with the other photo or background. For instance in Photoshop, you use the gradient tool (black to transparent) to blend all edges of one photo that you have placed onto another photo to blend the edges seamlessly. " I would appreciate!

I've read similar questions to this, but my question refers to blending side by side images together, and/or blending one or more images onto a background (not using blending modes). In other words, blending the edges with the other photo or background For instance in Photoshop, you use the gradient tool (black to transparent) to blend all edges of one photo that you have placed onto another photo to blend the edges seamlessly. I haven't found a good way to do this with Affinity Photo or Design. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, Yes, I am on correct layer. :) I forgot to rasterize. That was the problem. Thank you!

I would like to blur the edges of an image I have placed onto a colored background. The edges are hard and I would like to blur them into the background. When I attempt the blur brush tool, I cannot get it to work.
