No idea about Ipads but if you where on a Mac or on Windows, you could also give a look at for example easy-cinemagraph. It is also available on Steam - But i haven't had the need yet to use such a program nor did I tested it. http://easycinemagraph.com/

I wonder what method you used, here are a couple other methods single step ones; results with the Tone Mapping Persona; neural networks can also help a lot when you want to regain information from blurred or lost/pixelated images; https://arxiv.org/pdf/1702.00783.pdf

hm this is the best I can do with the lowquality photo, it seemed like the face was faintly hidden in the blue channel and a tiny bit in the red one. Channel Mixer Adjustment (cmyk): changed the cyan sliders (mistakenly also edited the yellow one which results in a darker color for the circle) Levels Adjustment (cmyk ): clipping the white level - need to cut uout a lot to reveal the face, copied the image to overlay it and used 'color' as a blendmode for the layer Denoise to get rid of the noise, Clarity to bring in some more contrast.

Windows 10 is truly "professional" - if you don´t dare to use professional equipment like a Wacom tablet and want to draw within Photoshop... https://www.reddit.com/r/Windowsink/comments/8508fi/controlling_pen_behavior_in_windows_10 Guess those which use wacom tablets in conjunction with Photoshop on Windows systems are not considered professionals anymore??

according to this posting, It won´t be supported, PDF(s) should be used to transition PP9 projects to Affinity Publisher,

Turn your image Colour Format into LAB( Document->Colour format->Lab) , select your image with the figure, click on the Blendranges button/cog symbol, change from Master to Lightness and edit the Blend ranges to decide on how the Source and underneath layers are going to affect each other on showing the marble. Adding a Highpass can make the Colours stronger. forgot to write; create a mask for the body.

So far I use a couple programs from Coffeecup, https://www.coffeecup.com/ Responsive Site Designer for example has support for; Bootstrap 3 (and 4 alpha) Foundation 6 (once RSD-V3 is released?) CSS Grid Additional image compression tools for your Affinity Photo/Designer output are recommended.

has anyone tried an emulation yet with the Vulkan-based DX11 layer for wine? https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/wiki

A native implementation would be indeed really nice. Affinity Photo in its current state allows to a certain grade the creation of normalmaps also to change the interpretation a bit via profiles but more complex stuff like images to normalmaps conversion is rather difficult, since complex macros aren´t possible yet. For a start (if you want to create it yourself and from scratch); diving into Styles, Macros and Layer Blendings can help you a lot further.

Hello bitinn sadly there is no direct way, but you can trick it to show each channel within the Channels there are two RGBA stacks available, the composite one (composition of all layers) and your channels per layer, you have to separate the Alpha from your Layer for it to work. 1. Create a spare channel and then a Mask channel from your Alpha - the Layer Channel (not the composite one) 2. Fill your Layer Channel Alpha now you can at ease edit the RGB channels while you can toggle the alpha mask(the one above your Layers) on and off. 3.To finalize the Layer, right click on your Spare channel and load it into the Layer channel alpha. To be able to edit your alpha; you would have to either strg click on your mask layer to put it into your Pixel selection or to right click on the spare channel to load it into the pixel selection. For Packing Textures including the alpha channel, something else like channel shuffle is a necessity. an example file with enabled history is attached. temporary solution_v3c.afphoto

a new file is uploaded on Gumroad for image to normal-map conversions.

I use screentogif on windows, its opensource, easy to use and lets you save animations in gif,avi,mp4,webm,wmv,apng bulk loading of images (and videos) is possible in various file formats but there is no *psd import thou... http://www.screentogif.com/

Hi all, here is a new Macro which allows an quick and easy dilation method for opaque areas. https://gumroad.com/l/dilation

Because its a testament to the quality of Affinity Designer/Photo and even if some might be surprised, people actually want to compensate others for quality products. Here is some information why Gravit Designer is (still) "free" quote from the page below: https://discuss.gravit.io/t/how-does-gravit-make-money/3002/3

It probably isn´t like "everything is in one program" solution Either it is working like the "Edit in Photo/Desinger..." or it mimics a hypervisor and loads the needed parts of those programs into the UI and offers a vector/Draw persona and photo persona and publishing persona?

you need to change the ICC profile of your Monitor to sRGB. Edit; Artboards are like pages of which you can add a couple. When you open as an example an PDF with multiple sites, those get spawned on Artboards.

Does this Easy2Convert company really want $8485,45 for the task of batch converting various file formats into other file formats? Sorry but I think many people will pass on your offerings/findings. People are reasonable, they want Serif to succeed with the Affinity Product line and gave and give them hints, on how to massively expand their user base by implementing day to day used features/file formats. Its hard to persuade your colleagues, friends or even a company to buy Affinity Photo when you have to say; hey for the regular tasks and daily output we create, we need to buy additionally to the Affinity Photo licence another little converting program which costs $29.95 per seat, lose time in saving and exporting twice and have an inconvenient way of working which takes time which could be used in having more output if Serif had implemented this daily used feature. TGA/DDS is needed in a professional environment even if you might not have a need for it.

thanks , that cleared the remaining questions.

thank you very much for the quick help. so to sum it up; usage of alt+ 7 to create a bullet point is a necessity. the provided information with the 'Paragraph' 'Left Intend' and 'Default Tab Stops' from the link is really interesting, will have to look into that.

Hello, sorry for the probably daft question but since importing the wished text (Copy paste and RTF tested) doesn´t work as intended, what is the intended way to manually create bulleted lists in Affinity Designer? This is what I would like to see .... this is what Affinity Designer makes so far when a new Tab stop is created.

On Win 7, the Beta always hangs/freezes and takes 10-12% of CPU power the Error message which comes when it finally crashes is: 65d9b21d-d5a2-4bef-81cc-1c7b4e755132 * the Crash report has been sent.

for a start; know which programming language you are using and then look for a forum which has the programming language as a main topic. Using a search engine will help... Unless you are making a plugin or are otherwise closely working with Serif, its unlikely that they will give you any pointers on how to program or how to make usage of a search engine... If you are really not finding any informations read this pdf from 1992 by Eric Hamilton the creator of the file format. https://www.w3.org/Graphics/JPEG/jfif3.pdf

point seems to be that without installed and working Cineware, you could as well use Affinity Designer since there is then no difference in features any more. * I quite dislike Cineware since it locks you into only using Illustrator and C4D while there are many more and better programs out there. A more broad approach in linking/combining programs would be preferable when it comes to the Affinity programs.

If you only work on old media, then yes, you won´t need interactive features. In the DTP field especially the digital publishing area is a clear demand for more ways of adding interactive Elements(Video,embedded 3D ,etc) into the ebooks/apps. Since QuarkXpress was mentioned, it allows the export of HTML animated eBooks or even converting the output into its own app.

Its not possible on a german keyboard to type symbols with strg+alt, it seems that Affinity photo wants the user to use Alt Gr instead. Any chances this could get fixed?
