Try the LUT adjustment (Infer LUT).

The Alt key always does the opposite: Good idea @GarryP! A clear case for "Feedback & Suggestions".

I cannot reproduce this on Windows. Does it depend on the size or the extension? Look in the File > Placement Rule menu to see which method is selected.

Therefore, rasterise beforehand! R e m a r k : You can rasterise a copy of the vector object. This way the vector object is preserved.

If you need the shadow completely, try using the blend options in the layers panel (Rasterise vector objects first):

Apparently the window opens in a size that depends on the screen resolution and the arrangement of the interface elements. The detached window appears to have the same size as the docked window. This is the size it always aims for. When it is docked, it also always has the same size. Reduce the panel areas on the left and right and you will see that the detached window becomes larger.

Do you mean the luminance (cd/sqm)?

What format is it? You may have changed the background colour in the advanced options.

Yes, I noticed that a long time ago. I hadn't reported it yet because it's not a serious problem. I would like to add the following: The problem apparently only affects the proprietary formats of the Affinity suite. JPEG, for example, is not affected. You don't have to close the whole programme to see the preview again. It is enough to close the open image.

I cannot help with a tutorial. But I once made a pattern based on symbols a long time ago. You can explore the principle using my example. There are no limits to the complexity. On the small ArtBoard you can find the single pattern. That's where you work. Muster.afdesign

You can press the Ctrl key (copy) when moving with the move tool and then delete the old layer.

@chet, welcome to the forums here You can try the "Blemish Removal Tool" or "Inpainting Brush Tool". Check the help to see how these work and get started.

This sounds like a graphics card performance problem. Does anything change if you deactivate the hardware acceleration (File > Settings > Performance)?

Even a user who does not know the inherent connections still wants to design appealing text.

Quite simply: In the course of DTP history it has turned out that a line spacing of 120 percent of the font size is the best to read (fatigue-free reading of bulk text).

The upper picture is obviously brighter than the lower one. So the recolouring is also brighter. You can correct the image beforehand with the gradation curves, for example. You can also try the brightness slider in the Recolourise dialogue box if you have not already done so.

With Recolour you colour the image monochrome. The image consists of only one colour. The different colour tones are created according to the brightnesses in the image.

Can you please provide us with screenshots of the panels paragraph and characters? Then we can better understand what exactly you mean.

@Halex: You can change the click speed of your mouse. But you have to do this via the mouse driver at operating system level - not in Affinity Photo.

@thomaso: It's like Windows and probably intentional. I understood the OP to say that the icon in V2 is generally no longer coloured.

I hope I have understood you correctly. The black and white conversion seems to work as expected here (Windows). Can you provide us with some screenshots?

It seems to work as expected for me (Windows). The only difference between V1 and V2 is the symbol. But both have the colour red. Are you perhaps on Mac?

You have three options: You can wait for Serif to provide the MSI. It won't be long now. You can wait until Lazy Nezumi can handle sandboxes. This can take a long time. There are several threads in the forum where you can find solutions to the problem. Search the forum (Keyword: e.g. App Execution Alias). I don't have a link ready at the moment.
