Hi, switching to WARP didn't help, I tried also turning off XMP and switched the RAM management from local to distributed and back, no change.

It's a Multilayer EXR rendering in which the single elements (diffuse, reflection, etc ...) are combined by adding layers together, this has to be done in a linear color space so the math adds up, preferable in 32bit (or 16 bit) float. Live filters are great but as you said they can slow things down. It would be nice to have some kind of live filter group that you could then be freezed in a certain state and reopened for editing later to safe some perfomance (ok, sounds like smart objects, I know). I also attached the afphoto file, maybe you can have a look on your machine. direct_output_test_AOV.zip

Hi Chris, perfomance is better with fewer layers . I often have the feeling that AP is highly performant with just a few layers but as soon as you throw a bit more complex comps in the mix it starts to crumble really fast. And as I said I don't mind that the curve correction doesn't update the document view in realtime but that the UI becomes so sluggish, those two processes shouldn't be connected in my opinion. Don't want to be that guy who points towards Photoshop ... but I guess I am The two GPUs are not connected via SLI as it is not needed for GPU Rendering so I don't think it has an impact. But I will try to turn one off and report if something changes.

Hi there, I have experienced some sever lagging and sticking with the UI in the current version. It is really frustrating to finetune something (e.g. curves) with such a behaviour. I don't mind that the refresh of the image takes a moment but the UI should not be affected by the number crunching. Attached is a video demonstrating what I mean. Thist runs on a Threadripper 2950x, 64GB Ram and two GTX 1070s. Turning on OpenCL doesn't help much I usually have it turned off for stability reasons. 2021-04-08 11-04-57.mkv

Works on Windows now as a plugin :-) Now it just needs to become a smart filter

Luminar 2018 on Windows does work partially as a PS plugin. It crashes AP when you try to apply what you did in Luminar and send the image back to AP. I would really like to see it work, great replacement for Nik Filters.

Maybe, but it is really counter intuitive to have to press a key combo in a certain order to make it work.

Hi, when i press Ctrl+Space+Mouse (in that Order) I can't zoom, only if I press Space+Ctrl+Mouse it works, that's a bit annoying because in the most cases I press Ctrl first.

Hi, I opened the same ISO Coated V2 profiled CMYK file in Affinity Photo and Photoshop. Color settings are the same in both programs but it seems the saturation in Photo is just to high.

Same here. I have the sad feeling that the developers a beeing quite Adobe esque on this problem: they don't care :-(

I have the same problem, wrong profile is being loaded, not the linear one. And a linear one can't be applied in 16bit later on, because linear profiles can not be choosen while in 16 bit.

Hi, my workflow contains working with 16bit linear gamma (gamma 1) files to combine render passes to a final image. Until now Affinity Photo only supports linear gamma in 32bit mode and ignores linear color profiles stored in 16bit images (and can not be assigned via menu). It would be great if Photo would support this as it is a essential part in my current Photoshop workflow. Thanks Oly

16bit images with linear color space profile are still beeing loaded with the wrong color profile (wrong gamma) :-( See this Post: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/28090-16bit-linear-color-space-problem/?hl=linear Also present in Designer.

16bit images with linear color space profile are still beeing loaded with the wrong color profile (wrong gamma) :-(

I'm just curious, is there any progress to solve this problem?
