Echo. I think this would be a great feature for version 2.
Could even be a sky replacement!😉

Thanks again for  update.

Thank you for all your hard works and making Affinity Photo even better.

2. My second wish is: If I want to export an edited image, the folder from which the image was imported should be suggested.
    No matter in which way the opening takes place.
I work with XnView as image viewer. I am in folder A and select a photo there with 'Open with Affinity Photo Beta' 1.7.0.258. There I edit the image and want to export it to the same folder with a different name. However, I am suggested a folder X. (The, in which I last exported).
I open another photo in the same way from folder A, when exporting after editing I suggested the folder A. That's OK.
Now I'm in AP Beta 258 and go to File-> Open. It is suggested to me a folder Y. I choose folder B instead and open some photos there. After editing, folder A will be suggested when exporting the first photo. That is not OK. Therefore, I have to manually select the folder B and can then save.
If I edit another picture I suggest to export the folder B. This is OK again.
I'm still in AP Beta and go to File-> Open. It is suggested to me folder B. I choose folder C instead and open some photos there.  After editing, folder B will be suggested when exporting the first photo. That is not OK.
 
2. Mein zweiter Wunsch ist: Wenn ich ein bearbeitetes Bild exportieren möchte, soll der Ordner vorgeschlagen werden, aus dem das Bild importiert wurde.
    Egal in welcher Art das Öffnen erfolgt.   
Ich arbeite mit XnView als Bildbetrachter. Ich befinde mich im Ordner A und wähle dort ein Foto aus mit 'Öffnen mit Affinity Photo Beta' 1.7.0.258. Dort bearbeite ich das Bild und möchte es in denselben Ordner mit anderem Namen exportieren. Vorgeschlagen wird mir jedoch ein Ordner X. (Der, in den ich zuletzt exportiert habe). Ich muss Ordner A manuell auswählen.
Ich öffne ein weiteres Foto in derselben Weise aus Ordner A, beim Exportieren nach der Bearbeitung wird mir der Ordner A vorgeschlagen. Das ist OK.

Nun bin ich in AP Beta 258 und rufe Datei-> Öffnen auf. Es wird mir ein Ordner Y vorgeschlagen. Ich wähle statt dessen Ordner B und öffne dort einige Fotos. Nach der Bearbeitung wird beim Exportieren des ersten Fotos Ordner A vorgeschlagen. Das ist nicht OK. Daher muss ich manuell den Ordner B auswählen und kann erst dann speichern.
Bearbeite ich ein weiteres Foto wird beim Exportieren der Ordner B vorgeschlagen. Das ist wieder OK.
Ich bin nach wie vor in AP Beta und rufe Datei-> Öffnen auf. Es wird mir Ordner B vorgeschlagen. Ich wähle statt dessen Ordner C und öffne dort einige Fotos. . Nach der Bearbeitung wird beim Exportieren des ersten Fotos Ordner B vorgeschlagen. Das ist nicht OK.

Here's something that's confusing me. Is it a bug?
Open a raw image (mine is .arw from Sony A7R2, 42mpx sensor, 40m compressed raw) Click on Develop. When you get to Photo persona, image is a lot 'whiter' Histogram has shifted. Illustrated in attached video, including comparison with AP V1.6, where 'whitening' doesn't happen but histogram shift does.
Yes, I know there's a blue spike at the right of the RAW histogram. I decreased exposure to bring this in. Same effect on Develop. It also happens with other images.
What's happening here? Any bugs in the woodwork?
(In experimenting, turning Gamma (in Levels) up to 2 improves/restores things, as does pulling Curves mid-point down).
 
 

Bill925 very strange post as I see you joined on Friday and raised 2 queries and both were replied to by Affinity with instruction.  Affinity is an excellent program with a vast quantity of free videos on YouTube to help with the learning curve.
ps Firms are closed over a weekend (even software companies as the staff need a break) but i'am sure if you are within the cancellation period you will get a refund. But you will have miised out on a bargin!

No response from Affinity so is it being looked at?
Good to be informed!

Hello Nick Trieu,
 
Overlays are available only in the 'Develop Persona' of Affinity Photo. Layers are a way how it works in the 'Photo Persona'. An overlay is more like a mask while a layer can be an adjustment, a pixel layer or even a live effect layer.
 
Quote from the help file:
Overlays are elements within Develop Persona which are placed on top of an image. Any adjustment applied to an overlay affects the image below.
However, overlays can have a varying level of visibility, which varies the impact its adjustments have on the underlying image. In this respect, Overlays in Develop Persona act in a similar way to masks in Photo Persona.
 
I hope this makes it a bit more clear for you 
 
d.
