Hello, i try to apply the image i am working on to a mask. In PS i do it straight forward, create the new layer (with a mask) - select it and use Image > Apply Image ... I fail to do the same in AP ... would be nice to get a tip. BR and thank you Sascha

Hi, i do have the same with my own files, ... this is why i used the sample file to ensure it is not my files. Sascha

anyone ... ?

Hi, I run into performance issues with AP ... but i hear so many are very happy with AP concerning performance. I read more in the forum, and the only time I saw comparable performance comments as i experience, was when people used large displays. As my hardware is powerful enough and other programs do not suffer from bad performance. So i thought i ask for feedback from you, my question would be: What monitor and resolution do you have, and how is your performance? My two answers would be: Dell 32 inch 4k; bad performance Macbook Retina; ok performance I would be thankful for your input. All the best Sascha

see a screen capture ... easier than explaining sascha Screencapture.mov

Hi, i face issues regarding the performance of Affinity Photo. Image renders visible in blocks ... from the center to the corners. I downloaded the Beta to test if this is fixed ... it is not. I used the promo fie (the one with the Fox) ... to ensure it is not one of my files. I restarted, cleared with control, checked the fonts, checked available disc space ... not sure what to think ... Sascha MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) Model Name: MacBook Pro Model Identifier: MacBookPro11,3 Processor Name: Intel Core i7 Processor Speed: 2,5 GHz Number of Processors: 1 Total Number of Cores: 4 L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB L3 Cache: 6 MB Memory: 16 GB Boot ROM Version: MBP112.0138.B16 SMC Version (system): 2.19f12

i have exactly the same issue ... i compare identical files in Affinity and PS6 i have this slow performance (you see the picture being rendered in blocks) in affinity and near instant in PS6 files are normal size, layers are not many and there is no reason for this ... very frustrating 5200 by 3600 pixel --- 16bit - adobe rgb - 8 simple adjustment layers size of the image 130MB when change to 8bit - slight improvement i reported tis before - no improvement so far ... AP and OS is latest release

Hi, i run it on a Mac Pro (last one) and i see a significant lower performance than PS on comparable or same files. I never got an answer from Affinity during Beta ... i am a bit frustrated. Sascha

hi thank you for this tip i would have never found it ... and it is quite unlogic for me to be allowed to create a preset in the layer, but not select it ... i would like to be able to select the preset from there, also to create some more and switch effortless thx sascha

Hi, sorry if i am to stupid to find the answer myself ... but i am puzzled. If i open a curve layer and add a preset ... how can i use the preset when creating a new layer? i just do not find the trick ... Sascha

Hi, the masking is somehow version 0.9 :-) I would love to (and need to replace PS) some more pimping here Binary masking (on-off) needs to be changed to more smooth transitions (GreyMask) Allow to feather the borders Allow to invert the mask (could not figure it out) I would also like to see (if possible and i did not get it - i am sorry): allow to include the adjustment details (where you perform the adjustments in the Studio (right pane) generate a pixel layer with one click that snapshots the current version some more will come with more testing ... but i am very convinced and very happy about what i see if you put it up for preorder i will consider for sure if you fix the masking :-) thanks for the great job Sascha
