you can go in "layer" and clic merge visible, the using that layer would solve your problem.

the OP need to re-install Nik 6 but installed in the right folder, not his nik perspective folder =/ (see attached snapshot). nik perspective doesn't work with AP and nik doesn't work in 64 bit. on mac: "user" / library/ application support / affinity photo 2 / plugins folder. can't tell for windows users.

an option, you can always remove the plugins from the list on your desktop and link them back.

you talking about years ago power point = The program, initially named Presenter, was released for the Apple Macintosh in 1987. In July of that year, the Microsoft Corporation, in its first significant software acquisition, purchased the rights to PowerPoint for $14 million photoshop = In 1995 Adobe purchased the rights to Photoshop from the Knoll brothers for $34.5 million. The demand for Photoshop rose as computers improved and digital photography technology advanced

many people were asking Affinity for AI features, now that they'll have it the complaint goes the other way around 🧐 on the other end, what happened to that weird Adobe software that was supposed to be released, Abode? oh ya still "beta" since last Updated July 22, 2023 😎 🧉 https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/culturehustle/abode-a-suite-of-world-class-design-and-photography-tools

latest Nik 6.6.0 working good here.

you can always send them a request for when to expect support for sonoma. it's always the same thing every time Apple release a new OS, let others test run and deal with not supported issues before you update your OS ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ to me, i'm just waiting for sonoma update like 14.1 (out on BETA now ) or sonoma 14.2 to install sonoma if my stuff is to run smooth.

top right in "search" type= AP and sonoma, you'll find plenty of topic regarding issue since sonoma release.

you seem to try to send a high pass filter to Nik plugin, that's not going to work, that's where your problem is, see answer above from RC-R

you stated your issue in your own question. Sonoma isn't supported yet by many software yet.

i think the only software i've seen having flare tool was exposure software.

if you're a fan of lens flare you can create your own brush in AP, or check online for thousands of png lens flare, drag and drop in a new layer, move it, change color or what ever you want to do. why would you want a baked lens flare tool that every users would have the same thing as you do?

what version of Nik are you using? AP2 or AP2.1? Mac or Windows? Nik6 doesn't work with AP2.1 but the new update released Nik 6.1.0 does work with AP2.1

was it 64 bit or 32? we talking old software =]
