Callum, Thank you for your advice which was spot on!! The latest GPU driver fixed the aero problem seamlessly. I live and learn! I have now reset my default settings and will give that a try. I will also look at the Affinity performance preferences. Again many thanks, Mike

My PC is a laptop! Are there any "tweakings" I can make hen using Affinity Photo? The Processor is Intel(R) Core(TM)i7-4800MQ CPU 2.7GHz, Graphics NVIDIA Quadro Kw2100M. When I look at the NVIDIA control panel I am offered numerous settings etc and I become easily confused! The windows 7 Pro x64 score is 7.2 which I believe is good? Some advice would be appreictaed please. VMT Mike PS Further back ground to my question. After booting up windows I have to fix "aero" by using administrator and resetting "net uxsms" to enable AP to run. The error code for this fault always refers to Nividia as being the root of the proble! Nothing I have tried works and the reset is now my workaround. Is there a nividia setting I am ignoring?

Hi Leigh, No luck! I followed the procedure and it did appear to download correctly and remove 1.6 references in the process. BUT it wont start, even as administrator. Fortunately I have 1.6 on another drive so I m continuing to use that. Incidentally 1.7 beta was very very very slow when exporting .jpgs. I am not "flagged" for anything in the Action Centre? Back to you thanks. Please give my regards to Kegworth! With my Mum I was evacuated there as baby in 1942!!!!! Mike

Hi thanks for the response. Yes I have tried running as admin, have also rebooted to no avail! When I run install I am asked to repair (see attachment). , this it does, reporting when complete. Problem is it is no where to be seen! I have even run search to try and find it!! When I run 1.6 iam told 1.7 is available. When I run beta I am told there is now a new beta - have 1.7.0.367 which is working fine. I have not tried the uninstall option as I need a working set up! and not sure which versions would disappear! regards from South Australia, Mike

I have just downloaded the .exe file which ran but nothing happened? A rerun provided repair or uninstall. I have tried both. Advice please Windows 7 Pro x64 etc. My version is up to date at 1.6.5.123. Thanks, Mike A couple of hours later - update! I have now reinstalled 1.7 beta which I un-installed a few weeks ago. This runs perfectly. I then tried doing the update. No joy~! So I would certainly appreciate some guidance / help on this. VMT Mike

Tools not working
Mike from South Oz replied to Mike from South Oz's topic in [ARCHIVE] Photo beta on macOS threads
Many thanks Carl. Opacity was the problem - 17%!! And I thought I had checked them all!! Appreciate the quick response. Mike -
I am at a loss with this one! My tools, whilst showing when applied are not carrying anything out. eg in-painting Pixel layer, brush showing during application in red, in-painting then commences AND - nothing happens!!! There must be a switch somewhere but I can't find it. For good measure I also tried rasterising the image. No, that didn't work! Tried another tool - clone brush -indication that it is doing the job BUT - it doesn't!! Help please! Mike

I am enjoying working with the workbook. However I do have a question based on page 230. Following the instructions, I set the paint brush tool and then look at the colour panel. I am unable, in RGB mode, to get those standard numbers (please see my first attachment). What is that scale? I am however able to complete the steps (up to number 4) improving the red tones as suggested! The other attachment shows my work so far - prior to cropping. Many thanks in advance, Mike

I have a Paint Brush Tool Problem. Using the very good epic skies overlays I am unable to get the paint brush tool to perform after applying the epic skies macro. The erase brush tool does work however on the sky layer. I have watched James’ video on this a few times and it all seemed so easy! In my case the paint brush tool does nothing with "black” or “white” selected. I cannot work out where I am going wrong as the paint brush tool works correctly in other mask layers. Advice please. Thanks.
