@thomaso Thank You for linking that thread! The blur tool is now working on BOTH computers by disabling hardware acceleration. Preferences > Performance, deselect hardware acceleration -

@R C-R @walt.farrell Nope, this is still the same issue between two computers. My employees computer continuously has a lessened blur than mine. Both attached images show one brush stroke, same exact brush was selected all same settings. Are you sure you guys get the same result from different computers? What could I be missing now?

Thank You! I was actually just struggling to find any brush that would completely blur in one stroke but finally found it in INKS brushes.

@walt.farrell Thank you for helping, however, I am unsure how this works? When I select a different brush, the hardness, flow etc changes based on the brush selection. Next, when I change the hardness, flow etc, the brush seemingly becomes deselected (no blue highlight on selected brush) Now, that I have clicked on a different brush, I cannot find ANY way to make the blur as shown in BLUR2 image attached previously! I literally cannot figure out how to get it to blur on one stroke again.... I have selected 2 dozen brushes, editing flow / hardness etc. Nothing, everything blurs about the same, just minimal amount of blur.

The blue tool does not blur as much on some computers as other computers. Opacity, Flow, Hardness all set to 100% Width 16.1 pixels See attached, the difference between Blur1 and Blur2, same exact stroke of the mouse. Blur 1 = AF Photo 1.9.2.1035 Blur 2 = 1.9.2.1035 Blur 3 = 1.9.1.979 (Same result as Blur1)

Bump, another AF Photo and PSD user who wishes to remove themselves from the Adobe subscription. Will pay for an upgrade to fix this. AF Photo 2.0??

I use the effect of the View (hand) tool by pressing down my mouse scroll button. Very easy movement about a document that way. And constantly I find the View (hand) tools auto / default selection to be annoying. I just want the MOVE tool to be default because I have my mouse scroll to handle view tool... And yes absolutely this:

Ohh haha yes they are my bad!

Hi All, I am unsure where I heard it, but several years back I was told that the lifetime license will also enable the ability to update the software. However, I was also told the updates would be available up until the 2.0 version at which point would require a new license purchase. Now that we have hit this awesome and quite meaty 1.9 update, I assume 2.0 will be within the next 2-3 years? If so, will I need to repurchase my licenses? I absolutely will not complain if I have to, as not paying monthly (terrible adobe) means I have been able to instead buy a bunch of goods, the books, even an extra/unused license or two in support of Affinity. More of just a curiosity question now that 1.9 is here....

I did not have any problem with account sync (on photo at least) but I saw some info about some more free goodies!!! Then once I did my account sync, I cannot see anything new... I do not see them on my account sync icon on top right of photo or inside my affinity account... What should I do to enable them???

Hi All, Maybe a noob question, but I am struggling to understand the full benefit of "template" files (.aftemplate). I do understand they come in handy in opening a new document from: file>new>templates , however I do not really understand how else they are useful? In my current understanding, if I save a file myself with certain margins, guides, ruler settings etc etc and just name it "Design-File-Template", when I open that file that is NOT a ".aftemplate" and click "save as" everything is there.... Just fishing for ideas and reasons to use template files! Thanks in advance!

Hi, Myself or my fiance made the object/file. Yes I soon realized that issue, but I would expect no response or a warning/error note to popup instead of program close! We almost lost some valuable work... Thanks, Shaw

Please simply try to rasterize compound attached and you will find both Photo and Designer will just close. This has been reproduced on two different windows 10 computers. Using newest version photo: 1.8.5.703 The Problem File.afphoto

Hi All, I have tried digging into these forums already but still struggling to understand how I should proceed. As I am now quite comfortable with AF Photo, I am beginning to dig into Designer, and worried about my files not being usable by Illustrator. Hoping someone can help me to understand some issues / mistakes I might make before I start digging into Designer? What should I avoid if my intention is to create files usable by other graphic designers who are using Illustrator? Thanks peeps! Shaw

I would like to have the ability to name individual pages, because when I export all pages, the name gets the page number appended to the end. If I could name pages, I could simply export and have the actual information I want on my file names.... For SKU purposes on files specifically.... "File-Name-page-color" instead of "File-Name-#"
