Hi both,
Hardware acceleration(new for 1.9) which can be found in Preferences > Performance does not work on Windows 7. So what you see is expected. Live filters (especially Liquify) are resource hungry and will slow down the app. This is where hardware acceleration comes into play (if supported by your OS).
@Simonj88 are you also running Windows 7?
That's too bad. But thanks for your answer! In future, Serif would only have to point out that certain filters do not run optimally or poorly under Windows 7.

Yes, that's exactly what I mean. So it's not my technique then. I only discovered this in the release. Do you know if this worked in one of the betas?
Addendum: Size and file format don't seem to matter.Maybe someone can merge these two threads.
No, the beta version has the same problem, although it is identical to the official version - and before that there were no beta versions with Liquify as a live filter.

The new live filter Liquify is practically unusable for me. Changes are displayed very slowly, delayed and jerky. I'm not sure if it's the implementation or my slightly older graphics card. Have others here also had this experience?
In the Liquify persona, the software behaves normally.
Hello, I have the same problem and wrote about that here: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/133306-liquify-as-live-filter-is-very-slow/&do=findComment&comment=734486

Hello,
as a loyal and enthusiastic user of Affinity Photo for many years, I was very excited about version 1.9 and installed it immediately, whereby I generally install every beta version in order to be able to try out the latest features.
Now I have unfortunately found in the latest version (1.9.0.932) that the Liquify function as a live filter is very slow and is delayed compared to the destructive variant. I made a little video about this to illustrate it.My PC-System:
Windows 7 Pro (64 Bit); MSI Z170-A PRO, Intel Core i7 6700K, 2x 16GB (1x 16384MB) Crucial CT16G4DFD8213 DDR4-2133 DIMM CL15 Single

PS. I uploaded the video here first but it was not recognized.

Hello,
I didn't know what is the right term for "Silbentrennung", so I took the first hit in google translator and wrote "syllabification". Thanks for the hint, walt.
@Fixx Yes, there is a setting for it but it's pretty hidden in the panal "paragraph".
-
Hello,
I wish that the syllabification is not only possible for paragraphs and the command not so hidden.
Regards
Martin

I know what you mean, walt, but I mean a simple function to flip a brush.
-
Hello,
first I'm very happy to see amongst other things that it's possible to rotate a brush - wonderful! But I don't see a possibility to mirror a brush which would be very useful. Please put in this with a next update!
Greetings

Hello,
the Perlin Noise function in Affinity is adequate for Clouds in Photoshop (Elements) and is used to design textures such as clouds, water surfaces, fire, smoke, etc. Now I noticed that in Affinity the fractal noise function is not randomly produced: No matter how many times I fill a level and then go to Filter -> Noise -> Perlin Noise: The result always remains the same.
But if I choose in Photoshop Elements Render -> Clouds, the result is always random.
Greetings

Too MANY functions? More than Photoshop? I can't believe.

Hello @Lee D:
Thanx! That worked fine.

Hello,
am I blind or is it not possible to transform a selection? I can only move it.

@PeanutsA:
Every full version number must be paid (e. g. 2.x, 3.x, 4.x).

Yes at startup.
At me there is no folder "Settings" on drive c: (neither for the final version 1.5.0.45). Or do you mean the folder "plugins"? In this there is only a file named status.json.

Crash with Beta 1.5.1.50

I wrote this here already: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/32173-auto-blend-layer/

text-on-a-path is considered to be a design feature, AP is for pixel editing.
So Photoshop (Elements) is a Program for Design? Shapes are not design features?

Hello,
an Auto Blend Layer would be great!Example on YouTube: Type "Auto Blend Layers - Photoshop" there

Liquify as Live-Filter is very slow
in V1 Bugs found on Windows

Unfortunately, I have to say that Windows 10 alone is not enough for hardware acceleration. But that's what it's suggested. In fact, Windows 10 alone is of no use if an integrated graphics unit such as an Intel HD-530 is installed.
