I would also suggest that when exporting an assets file, the file should have, by default, the name of the Assets category, instead of "Untitled.assets".

Affinity Phot Beta 2.4.0 On the attached file, when I try to Ungroup the stack, Affinity crashes. I can move the files out of the stack and move them back inside. The only problem seems to be the Ungroup. Stack-problem.afphoto

Photo version 2.1.0 on Mac I’ve noticed an issue with stroke on geometric shapes that I cannot explain. As an example: If Photo draw a square (fill, no stroke) 10x10 pixels. Clip canvas. The image size should be 10x10 pixels Now add 1 px stroke, making sure it’s aligned to inside. Clip canvas. The image becomes 11x11 pixels. It should be 10x10 px as we didn’t increase the size of the square. The anchor (top left) as change from 0,0 to 0.9,0.9. If I move it to 1,1, it looks correct but if I clip canvas again, it goes back to 0.9,0.9. If I remove the stroke and clip canvas, it goes back to 10x10 pixels. Affinity.mov

Brilliant!!

Styles are composed of Stroke and Fill. The problem When I want to use the Stroke from style A and Fill from Style B I can’t find a way of doing it. Choosing a different style will change completely the Stroke and Fill Possible solutions Create different styles for Stroke and Fill or when choosing a style, if that style has no Stroke, keep the existing Stroke. Another alternative is to create a function to paste only the Stroke (or Fill), similar to past FX

It's working after deleting the MRU.dat file.

Your correct. Just a blank file.

Well, I've been using Beta and the regular version with the same files and hadn't had a problem yet. Only now. Can you please try to open the file I've attached on the previous post, on the regular version, and see if the alert pops ? Thanks

But now when I try to open a file from Beta on the regular version 2 I get a warning that the file as features from a later version of Affinity and cannot be opened. testefile.afphoto

Thank you @Hangman It worked.

Same issue as another used reported for Publisher. Photo not longer starts. Macbook Pro M2 2022 / Ventura 13.2.1 Using control on startup (Clear User Defaults and Don't restore ...), didn't work. Tried also with Reset studio but didn't work. Let me know if you want me to send the crash report.

Meantime, the work around is to import all the images as a stack (no alignment) and ungroup the stack. In the Export Persona change the default slice export filetype for whatever you want, create a slice for each layer/image, and export the slices. Not ideal but works.

Hi I would like to request that the new export formats be available in the Batch job Dialogue, specially the JPEG XL and WEBP. Theses formats are becoming more popular and having to export one by one it's time-consuming when you have more then 20 files.

Thank you v_kyr for the video and Ron P. for the reply. You're both correct. After saving the file, or switching between files, it shows up.

I'm trying to create an action to fill my copyright metadata on several images. I record the action, filling the metadata fields, but when I run the action, nothing happens, no fields are filled with any info. Trying this on Photo, on Mac, on the IPTC (image), IPTC (Contact), and Rights tab. Strange enough, when I use the action on a batch job, the output images have the metadata inserted. To recreate the problem: create a new empty file start recording an action and put some text on any field of IPTC or Rights tab stop recording and save the action create a new file and run the action In my case nothing happens. Does anyone have the same issue?

No problem here

Try here:

For anyone interested, Affinity as implemented the median blur option on the Frequency Separation filter. At the moment it's only on the beta version 1.9.4.239 on Mac but will be parte of the new update. This change makes Frequency Separation way better. Gravação do ecrã 2021-04-15, às 18.51.16.mov

You're missing the point of what frequency separation is. If you create frequency separation with one type of blur and then use as the low layer an image with a different blur, combining the two layer will result in a different image. Try doing what you describe with a radius of 10px or more and see the effect.

I Step 1 and 2 can be replaced by a 50% grey layer, blend as luminosity or color. As to the practical side of it, I use the Luminosity layer to dodge and burn (without being distracted by the color of the image), and the Hues image to see if any hue is out of the intended color harmony for the image.

See here It's the part of Apply image (step 4 of my explanation)

As far as I can tell, the values are the same for 8bit, 16bit and 32bit In Photoshop apparently there is the need for different values for each bit depth version (I haven't tested it) In the tests I've carried in Affinity, the values work exactly the same way independent of the bit depth of the image.

Can you use apply image on iPad?

Should be exactly the same thing

Exactly
