I know that you can use multiple masks, but we were talking of the transparency tool, the one with the glass icon - Exactly...

I mean multiple instances of that tool per layer, currently if I want to apply it multiple times - Absolutely right!!!

 

 

I think that the - the availability of such a tool, will only increase the status of Affinity Photo.

Paolo Bravo!!! I take my hat off ... B)

however, I want to note... that your method shown me - much lower winnings for highly complex tasks.
Also, there is nothing wrong if this Transparency tool appear in the Affinity Photo's toolset.

This is an additional argument vs. Photoshop etc. for choosing a very nice product at a nice price...

 

*I first became interested in this product because - I panoramic photographer (there are a lot of interesting features for me)

It is a promising future for this product

Hi paolo.limoncelli!

 

Create a vector rectangle........ fill it with the gradient tool.... Drag it to the side of your pixel layer..... - this is the quickest method  :D 

I talk - too much "hand movement" :)

Hi, Alfred!

 

This is my workflow - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1j2AmcsWtOk

If you make this patch quickly (less than 3 minutes), with masks or other tools, I am ready to take back his opinion...

The principle of a quick to achieve a result...

I would be very happy if this Transparency tool would be introduced in Affinity Photo toolset, which is currently available in Affinity Designer allows work with Pixel layer partially changing its transparency.

 

With working with internal partial layers, which have been selected from base texture.

 

This will be a unique feature of this powerful software!

 

Thnx  :)

Hi MEB!

 

I downloaded and tested the Affinity Designer.. this feature works fine ..

but it is available for import layer.

 

If i selection some area from BG layer (with Pixel Persona) copy and paste like new layer, this feature is not available (in attach).

 

I would very much like to be available this powerful 'Transparency' tool in toolset of Affinity Photo... :) 

[Affinity Photo 1.5 sneak peek: HDR and 360 image editing]

After set layer to Live Projection (equirectangular) and return to normal flat view (remove projection) image quality is falling.

See example - before and after - https://goo.gl/photos/sT1yv4yA85m4SaZu9

 

I think when converting of projection 'back and forth' used weak interpolator

Your described method is "heavy"... same as a  Photoshop. In Corel Photo-Paint it is done with a single hand motion, as is the case with a vector rectangle...

Thank you

MEB,

 

I panoramic photographer (360), this method using a patch when poorly stitching some sources. In this case, the task was to copy a part of a good texture of the door and put it on an unsuccessful area with a part smooth translucency... 

 

 

[Transparency fading FX]

Ah :/
I posted not quite clear visual example
need raster element for accuracy patch

Fixx, MEB - thnx!!!

 

Fixx, this is what is required, but where to find into tools?

 

Sorry, I cannot parse...

[Simple Save mode]

Thank you.
Yes. I'm in the public beta for Windows 10

[Transparency fading FX]

Where can I get such a tool or filter? For arbitrary translucency :rolleyes:

see attach img - Corel Photo-Paint

 

*any help would be appreciated

[Simple Save mode]

It would be nice to save the file - 'as is'... ie Open TIFF after editing just Save TIFF (without via affinity project extension or export)
