Thank you so much! That's what I was missing. I really appreciate the help

Ok, perhaps that is the problem. Step by step, here's what I'm doing: select desired part of image with selection brush tool > add quick toggle mask to background in white > save/save as > export to .JPEG/.PNG How can I add a white background to the image so that it stays permanently? Thank you!

Hi everyone, This may seem like a silly question, but I'm having issues exporting an image after editing it. Every time I attempt to save and then export the image, it saves on my desktop as the original unedited image. Here's what I'm doing: After uploading the image to Affinity Persona, I use the selection brush tool to select the desired part of the image that I want to keep, I then use the toggle quick mask tool to add a white background to the image. I then save and export the image to .PNG or .JPEG and both files still save as the original, unedited image instead of the image I edited with the white background. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks very much in advance for your help!

Thank you for the reply, R C-R. I've done exactly that and I'm still unable to successfully export the image as edited. Here's what I'm doing: After using the selection brush tool to select the desired part of the image, I am then using the toggle quick mask tool to add a white background to the image. I then save and export to .PNG or .JPEG and both files still save as the original, unedited image instead of the image I edited with the white background. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks very much for your help!

If anyone has any advise I would really appreciate it!

Thanks Lee, however I'm still unable to save the image after using the masking tool to crop out the background. I save the image the way I want it, but then after I export it as a JPEG or PNG and save to my desktop the saved image is just the original, unedited image. How can I get the masked white/transparent background and other edits to stay with the image when I export it? Thanks for your help!

After using the selection brush tool to crop a white background into an image in Photo Persona I saved the work, then exported it as JPEG, bilinear, whole document and when I open the saved image on my desktop it saved the original unedited image. I've attempted this multiple times, selecting different exporting options but the result is always the same.. Is this a known issue or am I doing something wrong? Please help.
