Hello all, a positive update to say that after 5 days, I'm loving this inpainting tool. Works a treat. Its better if you zoom in to the area you wish to remove - as advised on video. And you have to remember to make sure the background layer is selected - again as advised on here. And I've found getting the right size to the brush also makes a difference. But I'm utterly amazed at how sophisticated it is and the kinds of backgrounds it can replicate when something is removed. Thanks for your support too. :)

Hi MEB, That's so funny.... yesterday was my first try with Affinity Photo and there are so many more details than my previous editing software which was iphoto. Sadly now defunct. Thanks for the prompt help. I look forward to exploring AP. It seems to a great piece of software.

Hello everyone :) , I've read this thread closely and watched a number of tutorials. And I've looked in help which I did not find helpful. I'm also having trouble with inpainting brush - one of my main interests in Affinity Photo. I've tried the advice of a poster above and started from scratch as the first task but still it won't mask out the area I select. Here is a screen grab. I believe I have the image correctly selected as the layer is blue. I then clicked on inpainting brush, selected the width but nothing else works. I'm not using a mouse but using this on a laptop. Please can you advise on what I'm doing wrong. Many thanks for your time. :)
