    aaturner got a reaction from Chris B in AP 2.1.0.1730 mask variants not working   
    Now there's a plan, Chris B! Right click (easier to remember than a long-press for we octogenarians). Great idea - I miss the ease of conjouring up the mask permutations and combinations as in v. 2.0.4, so please add my voice to the legion of "right click" advocates; or even a masking icon in the tool bar, a bit like the different options for brushes!

    As per the Release Notes:
    Adjusted mask behaviour
    From customer feedback the drop down menu when hitting the mask button in layers panel has been removed, and logic for how the assistant determines if a mask should be added as a new layer or a child altered.

    Thanks, Walt, that's where I would have posted had I spotted it. Sad to see I am not alone - how do I transfer my comments to ther thread?

    Thank you MikeTO for your comment and advice. I first checked to see whether the shortcut worked in version 2.0; it did. I then tested v2.1 beta again and it still did not work, so I adopted the nuclear option, uninstalled and then reinstalled the Beta version and now all works as intended. I'm not sure whether reinstalling as administrator made a difference, but the initial glitch is now resolved. Thanks again.

    Way back when Bill Gates wasn’t even a twinkle in his mother’s eye, we used to code with a purpose (remember Algol, Fortran, Cobol, punched cards and the like?). As well as advancing technology, the purpose of our endeavours was to make life easier for the end user, giving them something they needed, something they didn’t know they needed or to improve what they already had.
    Given the length of this thread and some of the anguished comments therein, can someone at Serif explain what the purpose is of the switch from a .exe format to .msix and how the end user benefits?

    Good day all. Could someone please tell me where the exe file for AP v2 is located? As I have been doing successfully for years with AP v1, I would like to launch the v2 app from Photo Supreme v7 DAM, but the app needs the location of the .exe file, and search as I might I cannot find it. Grateful for any help.
    Many thanks. Andrew Turner

    aaturner got a reaction from Eric O'Brien in Affinity Photo v2 .exe file location   
    Really appreciate the help so far. However, I'm afraid I am not a tech expert - (at 80 yrs the grey cells are fading). I have found and opened C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\ but apparently I need superpowers to enter the hallowed cabinet. I fiddled around a bit and found a way in, but all the tick boxes required to change my permissions are greyed out; using administrator privileges did not help. Is there any other way to access the AP v2 .exe file(s)?

    Phooey, that ruins my workflow using my DAM as a gateway. Hope that Affinity:Serif can provide a solution before too long. Lessons learned: don't be an early adopter - more haste, less speed. My fingers are firmly crossed for a prompt solution, Serif!!

    aaturner got a reaction from Chris B in Affinity Photo 1.9 beta crashes when applying Tone Mapping settings   
    I am using AP 1.9.0.820 Beta on Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.19042 Build 19042. I have GPU acceleration enabled although the problem also arises without acceleration enabled. I have a Geforce GTX 1660 graphics card with 6Gb and an Asus Z97-AR motherboard with 16Gb ram. System is on a 1Tb SSD (Samsung).
    Problem arises when I develop an image in 16 bit with a tone curve applied, or 32 bit with no tone curve applied, and a camera and lens profile also applied. From there I enter the tone mapping persona. Having made some adjustments  I click on the Apply button at which point AP simply shuts down - no warning, no error message. Exact same steps in AP 1.8 work just fine.
    Choice of image seems immaterial, but fyg the ones I have tried are 36Mb .nef images from a Nikon D810.
    Any guidance you can offer will be welcome. Many thanks.

    aaturner got a reaction from Aammppaa in Using CTRL+SHIFT+LEFT CLICK to select luminosity values   
    Yes, that works. Thank you, Aammppaa for your clarification. Truth be told I had not even thought of clicking on the thumbnail; I was busily clicking on the main image much as I would when using a selection tool! Not particularly intuitive; however, that's another splinter avoided as I slide down the banisters of life. Thanks again.

    aaturner got a reaction from Saijin_Naib in 1.7.0.209 HSL luminance problem   
    Following earlier comment above and after further testing, it seems that the luminance anomaly arises when processing 32 bit images. When in 16 bit mode processing appears normal, with luminance slider performing as expected. 1.7.0.209 - NEF files.

    aaturner got a reaction from Rafal in RC2 (.45) Does not play well with Wacom tablet   
    Am using Wacom Intuos pro. Dodging and burning with mouse works ok, although a bit laggy and jerky. However, if trying to use tablet, cursor shows arrow rather than brush and although it "paints", it does so very slowly and with significant lag.
     
    Scrolling and panning with the tablet is also hit and miss and occasionally just does not respond. Same action with the mouse works fine.
