Hi there, I've encountered the same issue since I've updated AP to 1.8. This is a workaround I have not read any mention about: run the program using the gpu processor (NVIDIA in my case) and not the default processor (usually the integrated Intel). It starts without any crash. Unfortunately it's not the solution.

I stay tuned on this thread

such a great epiphany

thank you

and thanks for the bonus packs

Great News!!!

@MBd after all alecspra asked for an other method for doing the work an he was satisfied as far as I can see he suggests to use the frequency separation to preserve the details and the traits of the face

well I found it interesting because it is an alternative to a layered work. He works on a low frequency layer and it seems to be more realistic compared to a traditional method, fairly time saving. Picking up the colors from a color photo is a good suggestion, I tried myself with a picture of Theodore Roosevelt, picking up colors from Robin Williams in "Night at the museum". The result satisfied me and did it in a short time.

Hi @alecspra I've just found out this tutorial with the frequency separation and the paint mixer brush tool

It's not the firs time. Thar occured also in previus Betas. I was just tracing a picture with the pen tool and after 4th curve the program crashed. Exactly in the moment I was trying to adjust a curve by the handle. Attached the screenshot of the work in progress

Same issue. But only when I open files from recents. If I open a new file it does not happen.

Remarkable number of users! Thanks for your reply @MBd

Hello Sirs, I was wondering how many affinity users there are worldwide.

No I do not have any. Deleted already. When I shall have one, I'll upload

Hi Brethren, I was outlining a subject in a photo with the pen tool and was not able to end the job due to a crash notice of AP. So I hit the OK and restarted with the safe copy, but every time I could not proceed as the crash notice still appeared. That does not occur in the stable version.

smart solution. It does the job as well. thanks

Hi brethren, I would like to gradient mask to achieve the attached image result. In the sample I have created 4 masks to do that, but I would like to know whether it is possible with 1 mask or not.

Selection brush tool: when I zoom the picture to refine my selection, the dashed area disappears

I've tested as well. I think it could be a nice feature to be kept :)

#Callum Yes I'm. On the official everything's ok.

Hi, I was writing the same post about Designer beta. The same issue is show when I drag any kind of picture into the work area. Instead, if I use the PLACE command, everything works fine

Intendi dire , quando crei una tavola da disegno con all'interno un oggetto e sotto una porzione di jpeg di sfondo? Oppure una selezione in pixel persona su un oggetto e sotto lo sfondo jpeg?

Hi Emmrecs01, yo could be right about the firewall, indeed in #5 he writes that the problem comes out on a second machine too. I think that B13NFC has installed on both the same program that does the conflict. So, let's suppose: B13NFC has installed on both something like adobe acrobat (or something similar with a pdf engine) and for some reasons the firewall is blocking or the host file is diverting to some wrong adresses. Could it be?

Weird. So if you try to export in jpeg or png it works, when you choose pdf it returns a program error or a system error?
