I'm using equations ... see this thread :

I would add the HSl adj as a child layer (can be set as default in the assistant manager).
Then invert that HSL layer, and use a white brush to partially paint the adjustment back in ?

Scaling do not seem to work since increasing the DPI reduces the size of the print.
From the help file:
"Scaling will embed a specific print resolution into an image's metadata to force it to print at a specific dpi (e.g. 300 dpi). The image's pixel dimensions remain unaffected"
... BUT NOT the dimensions. Which is logical.

Shut down my real time virus protection
I'm running Kaspersky Internet Security. Never had a problem on installing/updating software.
Just out of interest which virus software do you have installed? -

works exactly the same with the fill layer
You're right,sorry. I was a bit confused. Any idea why my layer stack doesn't look the same as yours ?

From my understanding it doesnt work if you do it in one way, and it work if you do it the "other way".
True, but only with a pixel layer, not with a fill layer ....

HI @nater973,
Via Edit > Preferences > Performance you can define a File Recovery Interval. I don't know if there used to be a default, just check it out.
On Windows the files are stored under:
%APPDATA%\Affinity\Photo\1.0\autosaveBut if you didn't get a recovery message when restarting the app ... it may be something severe ...
You could also check if there are any crash reports created,
%APPDATA%\Affinity\Photo\1.0\CrashReports\Reports

Okay, applying the Haze Removal directly to the .HDR file also causse AFphoto to quit on my system.
I went through Develop Persona first and did some further editing in Photo Persona.So it will need some further investigation by the staff / Devs.
Instead you may use the JPG file for editing.

I was trying some editing
How did you proceed?
Which file did you edit?
HDR_041_Path.jpg or HDR_041_Path.hdr ?
Was it developed in Develop Persona and then additional edited in Photo Persona? etc. -
No problem on my windows 10

Haze removal is a destructive filter.

I still don't understand this. (And I understood none of Wosven's explanation about transparency and a palettized PNG file; sorry.)
I can tell you how to stop the color from changing, though. Turn off the "Apply to Selection" option in the Color Picker Tool's Context Toolbar, which seems to be on by default:
But it's also on when I tried it with my file, and nothing changed in my file when I used the color picker, whether I Rasterize the (Image) layer or not.
Thanks for the TIP ...

WHY must I rasterize a raster image before I can use <Select>/<Select Sampled Color>?
See this thread ...

Oh yeah.Works fine when using File > Open = (Pixel) layer
But not when using File > Place or dragging it on the canvas (matte or transparent) = (Image) layer, which needs to be rasterized first.
(The man sitting on the chair, is a placed JPG-file ... )
But I probably misunderstand it completely ...

Luminosity mask.

Hi @Rainon
Affinity Photo help (F1) :
"Adjustment layers also have mask layer properties. Areas of an adjustment layer can be revealed or hidden in the same way as with a mask layer."
My workflow would be as follow:
CTRL/CMD + ALT + Click to create a luminosity selection.
With the selection active, add a curves adjustment.
Make the adjustments
Click on the little gear icon to open the Blend Options dialog, and apply the effect only to the highlights.
If you wish, you can invert (CTRL+I) the curves adj and then use a white brush to paint the effect back in only were needed.
