Hi Chris, thanks for the info. My experience as a retired computer scientist: We developers find all the bugs. After all, we've built them in, too :-)))

The upload is ready. Good luck ;-)

The dump is uploading, but the >1GB will need over one hour. I'm using a single monitor, an HP LP2065 with 1600x1200 px - IMHO nothing special with that.

I downloaded and installed the beta version - no change. When I load an image and press STRG-M the program goes into an endless loop consuming ~17% CPU, see the screenshots. This loop continues 'til I terminate AFP either by task manager or the close window cross (upper right). It seems that for AFP this hang is NOT a crash, and therefor there are no files in C:\Users\Wolfgang Kynast\AppData\Roaming\Affinity\Photo\1.0 (Beta)\CrashReports\reports\

I wonder if this is related to the keyboard. I can produce this freeze(loop) with the mouse alone using the menues.

First, there are no files in the Reports folder. I have currently running AFP and pressed ctrl-m. The program does not do anything and the Task Manager show Status=inactive with a continous cpu usage of ~16% - I think this means that the program is in a loop. To stop it I have to click on the close window cross top right. Then I'm asked wether to close the program and if I click Close a report is sent to microsoft. What else can I do? @Chris: it seems to happen on any picture. I enclose one of them. The problem is new to 1.7.0 - I reinstalled 1.6.5. and no problem there with curves.

I did the reset - no change, CTRL-M still freezes AFP I then did an uninstall and renamed the affinity folder in appdata. Then I did a new (hopefully clean) install. Same behaviour. Any other idea how I can help to solve this? Perhaps deleting something in the registry? Update: In the meantime I uninstalled 1.7.0.367, did a fresh download and installed 1.7.0.380 No change, still freezes. Using another key (CTRL-U) instead of CTRL-M doesn't help either.

Sure. And 60 of them beeing developers (for 3 big products) sounds reasonable to me as a retired software engineer. I do not believe the "dozen people".

Deep in my brain is the number of 100, but can't find it again. The company building https://www.google.de/maps/place/Serif+(Europe)+Ltd/@52.9169634,-1.1571404,124m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x4879c256e65a8ded:0xb0f2405300d5654d!8m2!3d52.9168566!4d-1.1574671?hl=de looks appropriate for this number to me That would give 30 for Photo 30 for Designer 30 for Publisher 10 for company management sounds reasonable to me. Update: https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/serif states "Number of Employees 101-250" Best regards Wolfgang

AFP 1.7.0.367 freezes on Win10-D when trying to call 'Gradationskurven' (gradation curves) via CTRL-M or menues. Must be cancelled.

I'm afraid it is not that simple.My quite new Epson ET 2550 has Twain and WIA drivers. I can use both from Irfan View 32, but the WIA driver has a lot less functionallity than the Twain driver. In fact, the WIA is only approriate for very simple tasks. Irfanview 64 can load the Twain driver via something called IrfanViewStubClient-a separate process. Corel PSP X8-32bit uses the twain driver just fine, but rejects the WIA driver as "not enough compatible" Corel PSP X8-64bit does not display any scanner driver. I feel that WIA drivers are doubtly usabel at time. The only way for AP to go would be to use something to call the TWAIN drivers via something like the IrfanViewStubClient.
