Thanks man! How did you get a good selection though? I'm struggling with either too much or too little selected. What's your tolerance setting - do you use several samples wit low tolerance or just one sample with high tolerance? This is my best attempt, sampling all the shades I can without affecting the surrounding black: -

I found I still had PS Elements 11 - this is after literally 10 seconds of adjustment of Enhance>Color>Replace Color -
So the replacement color tool doesnt seem to work with greyscale for some weird reason. I need to make grey parts of a mainly black image darker. Like this, trying to get the "tips" blacker/darker, without affecting the other parts. The magic selection brush does a bad job, so does the "select sampled color", the replace color-brush won't do it, and I can't find an adjustment that will do it. I remember the "replace color" function from my Photoshop Elements 11(!) did this easily. Just adjust feather and replace any shade of gray with any color of my liking(including black). There must be a quick way/filter I'm missing?

Hm, I thought the apps used mostly the same "engine" behind the tools, but maybe not. I find it really hard to warp correctly without guidelines, so now I just draw a grid out of curves in a rectangle, warp that first and then put the actual object in the group, but that's more of a workaround. I'm assuming we all(users) agree that it's easier to warp good when we see the visual of a grid?

toth started following How to show Warp grid in Designer, as in Photo?

Mr. Doodlezz reacted to a post in a topic: Can't deselect layer fully, stays "soft selected"
-
I'm trying my hardest to deselect a layer, to not have anything selected when inserting a stock photo or making any sort of new curve/text/whatever. After clicking outside the canvas and hitting escape repeatedly, the last used layer still has a dark blue highlight. How does one fully deselect, so any new element comes in on the "root level", not under that last used layer? (Designer by the way)

toth reacted to a post in a topic: Brush properties doesn't actually change
-
I see - so what's the difference/relaitonship between the stroke pressure and brush pressure? Or what does brush pressure curve do? When you mess with it the preview changes as expected, but not the actual result.
-
Isn't that what I have open in the screenshot? A pressure curve from 0 to 100 left to right?
-
Hi, when changing pressure curve/size variance/opacity variance in brush properties, nothing actually happens. The preview in the properties window reflect the changes correctly, but it doesn' actually affect the curve stroke.

All fixed, thank you so much @N.P.M.! I googled "affinity clear cache", "clear settings" etc, but never found the ctrl-click result, wonder why it's so hidden. -

Yes, I held ctrl and clicked, like you said first "Hold down the control key and click the program shortcut". But is it the shortcut in windows startmenu I should do it on? Or somewhere else? I'm on win10 pro if it matters. EDIT: Thanks, got the clear menu now! Restarting to see how it works. Also clicked "yes" on "would you like to import personal stuff from v1".
