Thank you very much! Unbelievably generous of you to share your brilliant work.

Hi DWright thank you for your response. Unfortunately (or maybe I'm rahter fortunate) I can't reproduce this issue anymore. I tried to verify the situation a few minutes ago and it now simply works as expected, meaning a file window opens when selecting the load bump map option. As I mentioned above I was playing around this morning to see which options the "live lighting filter" provides. And I had this phenomenon that klicking the "load bump map" option didn't do anything but freezing that same dialog window. And I really tried this several times. But what I didn't do, is restarting my PC. That seems to have done the trick. Sorry for the confursion caused. SU24

Hi, I was playing around with the live lighting filter options dialog. All options worked as expected. Only when trying to load a bump map the dialog window freezes. I'd expected a file dialogue window would be opened to choose an image from. That doesn't happen. Although the lighting options dialogue is frozen, I can move and drag the handles on that fan-like shape to alter different options. And the changes are shown in the "frozen" lighting dialogue window. I can also use all other functions like choosing different tools, choose layers in the layer panel, open all menu options. I can even use the "displace filter load from file option" from the Filter - Distort - Displace menu. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? I'm using Affinity Photo 1.10.5.1342 on a Windows 10 Pro PC Vers. 21H2, 48 GB RAM, OpenCL disabled. Thanks SU24
