Well Chris did say he would (and did) move the question to Feature Requests so that was kind of a response. I'm hopeful it has been considered. Makes such a difference when you have really fine control over the movement of such things. As I said earlier it's no less useful than being able to nudge a selection. It's the one thing I miss in every edit session I do. Regards

Printer driver update? Just a thought Regards

Bump ..... Please please pretty please

In truth not a lot of that affects my workflow but it's fantastic to see the continuing work and commitment, great stuff guys!

Hehehe Have to say though I'm in awe of these AD artists

+1 lovely rework of the original image

I prefer the AP image, good job!

Wow!

and imadio with their excellent hemi module by the look of it. AP officially recognised in their documentation. Regards

That's interesting as I spend a fair amount of time processing panos! Are you saying that if I process the same files in the current release version and the current beta version I'll see a difference? Regards

The exiftool is understandable and normal but not sure about the console window unless it's being used to spawn the exif exe Regards

Such a simple thing but having the pan and zoom tools double click behaviour consistent i.e. working in all personas is so good.... thank you thank you! I'm not sure if this is a bug or a change request but with regard to the Tone Mapping Persona when you make an adjustment to a brush overlay the mask disappears. How do you get it back to make a change to it? It's as important to see the mask when editing as it is to see it in the first place when creating it. I thought the first icon on the overlay was a mask visibility toggle but seems not.

Hi High Desert, With the posted example I'd agree 500 is indeed 'excessive', TBH I'd cover that sort of image with three or four portrait stitches but that wouldn't be answering the OP's question really. 'Giga Pan' imaging is amazing when done correctly (and viewed with appropriate software!) imaging a cityscape or mountain range using a telephoto lens (appropriate focal length) to stitch up 100+ frames doesn't loss detail! https://www.willpearson.co.uk/interactive/gigapixel/infinitely-london/ Regards

Hi Fossil36, The location (source load location) of the files you want to stitch is not important (if I'm understanding what your asking correctly) The issue you are having sounds like there are not enough common reference points in each of your files for the software to successfully create the stitch. If you wish to make the files available I can confirm. Regards

Hi Frankinstine, Apologies, I didn't notice your new around here yes I mean Affinity Photo, and welcome! Looking at your example I would have a couple of concerns; The number of frames AP allows in a stitch. (only one way to answer that!) Quite a large portion of that image looks very dark and without reference points (maybe the original raws have detail?) I'd be pretty confident it would handle the stitching complexity with ease if reference points exists as the final image size is no larger than the stuff I work on, I just start with fewer frames. The software is free to trial. I'd be really interested in how it handles why not give it a go! Regards

Hi Frankinstine, I've been using AP a lot to do panos having previously used PTGui, which IMHO is better than ICE. I went back over some older stitches that had caused me issues in the past and AP has handled them surprisingly well (very little reworking and patching) My panos are no more that 40 frames max (AP handles that no problem) so I don't know if there is a hard limit but I suspect Callum is correct. There are a couple of things that may initially frustrate, the pano dialogue can't be resized and therefore it's difficult to see which one is best if you have multiple initial renders and there is no options for projection method, that's handled after the stitched image is in the editor with mesh tools or with a plugin like Imadio hemi. Having used the mesh tools for some time now though I'm really happy with them. Regards

Hi, Was wondering if devs have had any thoughts over how this may or may not affect Affinity product performance? https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/01/02/intel_cpu_design_flaw/ Probably not a good time to be putting any new updates or betas into the mix though! Regards

Hi, Although I'm putting the topic here the same thing is happening with the release version. I've not experienced this with any other file that I can think of so I suspect there is an issue with the file itself? Basically the visible layer disappears from view when zooming out and reappears when zooming back in again. Pretty self explanatory but I've attached a video in case you think I've been on the sauce If someone from Serif wants to check it out could you provide me with an upload link. Thanks Regards 2017-12-29 at 15-54-21.mp4

Hi Guy's Are you discussing the ability to apply transformations like these below to say a stitched pano using formula? If so that would be AMAZING where/how can I learn more please? ! Regards

Spot on Peter, I think you really hit the nail on the head there!

Honestly, I'm very jealous of people with such graphics skills. Lovely Regards

Create a new layer, fill it with white, (or you could use 'New fill layer') select all then Select - Grow/Shrink by -150px (which is about 1/2") then press delete key. Simple and you'll have a nice border and retain non destructive project file. Regards

Just asked Mrs Santa to order a copy because I've been a good boy this year. Yay! now that's what I call a stocking filler

A practice cricket net and a ride on lawn mower with a bucket in your garden, now that's just showing off!

Hi Iam1of 2, pretty easy to reproduce actually just open two images and undock one of them, hardly a 'mess'. Not sure if I've ever used a graphics package that doesn't support this functionality. Regards
