Absolutely... For the truth: if you select a single image (a jpeg too) in a photo collage and edit it you can see all the adjustment layers adding one after the other, under the backgound layer, but it's not as useful and effective as having a new instance opened...

Hi Old Bruce and walt, thank you for answering! You both are right: I posted the wrong link (the right one is placing documents) but I'd missed that documents that allow a double click opening in a new window are another .afphoto and not a simple image file... My mistake :-) A.

Hi everybody, i didn't find anything with a first search so I'm starting a new topic... I created a new canvas and placed three images: two are .tif, created with digital photo performer 4, and the third is a .tiff, exported from AP (1.6.6); I finally created a fill layer that I placed as a background. I need to edit single images and I double clicked on each of them but nothing happened while I was expecting them to open in a new window, as showed in the creating photo collages video tutorials... Did I miss something? Thank you everybody for helping me! :-) A.

Hi Alfred, thank you for answering! So I was wrong... I missed that manual page even if I usually search on manuals... I hope I'll do better from now on...

Hi everybody, I received the book some days ago - after a long wait - and I'm starting to explore it; what I noticed is that in the example projects, just as in the tutorial videos, it's stated "do this and this, set this value to x%" and so on but there's no explanation about some commands in general... Let's say, Impainting brush tool: what's the general effect of opacity, flow, hardness? I guess I can't apply the same values I read in the projects examples for every photo I edit... In my opinion, even as a teacher, this is an annoying lack in a manual... Or I'm I missing something? Thank everybody for answering

Tank you DWright, my question was: do I need to download the app too or put a like/comment on facebook is enough? I saw in another post that is not possible to download the app with an old ipad2 :-/ To be more precise: one like or one comment OR one like and one comment? Thanx

Hi everybody, may I download the new affinity app even if I'm still working on an old ipad 2? I wouldn't miss the opportunity to win a brand new ipad... Thanx!

Hi everybody at Serif, I ordered my Affinity Photo Workbook copy on november 23rd but I still haven't received anything: I'm living in Italy... The site stated 'delivery in five-seven working day' for Europe... Can someone reassure me I will get it? (I wrote on affinity site yet but I received no answer...) Many thanx p.s. sorry! I've just read the previous posts...

Hi MEB, and thank you for super fast answering! I watched the video again and it showed an .aphoto document placing, actually.... So, one more question about collages: do you suggest creating them by opening separate images or by embedding different aphoto docs, so to keep the chance to correct images on the way? thank you again! arfo p.s. tutorial videos are very useful but I think (not alone, I guess) that a regular, official, pdf manual is a must for a program like Affinity that I hope to use in the future (I'm a very newbie, as you can see...)

Hi, I just created a collage with multiple images, following video tutorial instructions, but when I double click on a single image for editing it doesn't open in a separate window.... Is this a bug or do I miss something in option, preferences and so on... Thank for answering... arfo

Hi havovubu, thank you for answering! I'm very curious about your advice but I don't see any screenshot... (reading from an old ipad2...) I'm hoping you can post it again! arfo

Thank you R C-R, I basicly wish I could tag and organize photos keeping them in their original folder (exactly like iPhoto's smart albums) so I'll try your advice for sure. In case I should fail can you suggest me a free or cheap alternative (until I can get a yosemite installer...)? I also use dpp4 but it can only rate photos with stars and/or flags; no tags. @uuiop: Sierra? I'm on mavericks and I don't want to update sierra or el capitain for now because I shoul upgrade different sw lucenses too....

...could someone, please, suggest me a free mac DAM, mainly for tagging-browsing my photos? (I know: adobe bridge it's free but I'm still running Mavericks and i missed to download a Yosemite installer...) Many thanks, anyway arfo

Hi rintin, hi emmrec, thank you for answering, as rintin says I would like to make thing as simple as possible (only one software?) but raw conversion is still a problem (for me) with AP while DPP4 is not as powerful for editing... I'm trying to understand if I do some mistake with AP raw developing... @emmrec: in AP you can set variour parameters in the assistant like 'apply tone curve and so on and it change the starting point very much; i did various attempts but at the end I always come out with less details definition... Some other opinion/experience? arfo

Hi Adam, have a look at this... ;-) arfo

Hi everybody, hope this is the right place to write. I'm a non professional photographer and I'm trying to understand something more about photo editing, using a canon eos 600D; my question is: could some expert user explain the differences between the two softwares (and the reason for choosing ap rather than dpp4)? I own the payed mac version1.5 of ap, and I think it's a great software, but sometimes it seems to me I don't get as good results as in dpp4; is there a basic routine starting from scratch? I'm looking at all the videos tutorial but a detailed pdf guide would be helpful, definitely, and very appreciated (not only by me, I guess). Thank you for answering, arfo

Hi Zox, I was only able to create an epub but I'm on a mac... No pdf for me too, there is always some error (I didn't spend a lot of time on settings, for the truth...) I've found an epub guide somewhere in the web but I've missed the link; probably you can find it out... On the opposite I didn't find any pdf guide and is not possible, if I'm not wrong, to create it from an epub... arfo

p.s. is it possible there's a couple of tutorials also for "the visit" and "dreamers"?

Hi MEB, thank you once more! arfo

Thank you very much, Leigh, I'd missed it! Now I've tried again and I succeeded :_) arfo

Hi MEB, you're right! Is this the only one? Nothing similar for "The visit"? One more question, if I can? I downloaded the first two samples? What's the download location for mac? I'm not an used photo editor but I think Affinity is a very good one! Happy I've bought it :) Thank you for answering! arfo

Hi everybody, maybe I'm wrong but it seems to me that there was at least one video tutorial about the creation of affinity samples... Do somebody remember the same? In case the answer is yes where can I find out the video? I've searched various ways but with no results... Thank you, arfo

Hi Leigh, Hi everybody at the Affinity forum, I tried the method you suggest but with no success: I have no shared file and no index.html file into the de.jplroj folder (I also tried the it.ljproj as I'm Italian but with no results...). Can you help me? I'm using the 1.4.2 version on a macmini late 2012, osx 10.9.5 Mavericks. Tanx for helping me, arfo
