Same problem here.

Hi Alexey, sorry for your trouble, working fine for me.

Same here

How about a toggle check box or button to choose between option 1 and option 2

@walt.farrell Thanks for your suggestions. Yes, I can get it to work in V2 by changing the settings e.g. "Basic" will work. Just the "Automatic" setting does not work in V2.

All works fine in V1 not able to activate grid in V2. Also CTR+' not working in V2

I can confirm this too V2 Windows 11

Thank you for well made point I understand you position and I sincerely hope that Serif will come up with a suitable update. Perhaps we have to ask Patrick to give this request the priority it really needs (no doubt he will read this). Like you indicated, it will give them a lot more business as well. Best Regards again, Peter.

Not for me. Not by a long shot. I have mentioned this before, we need to realize that Serif is working with limited resources. If we make the comparison with Adobe and their vast company (read resources) then we can draw the conclusion that Serif is doing a marvelous job! They are also not charging us an arm and a leg for a beautiful program. Perhaps we need to be a little more patient. Best Regards Peter.

Totally agree, yes there are outstanding bugs and hopefully they will be fixed soon. I just want to express my appreciation to the whole Serif team. They have done a marvelous job with limited resources. Best Regards, Peter

I can confirm same issue as well. Windows 11

Not able to replicate neither with OCL on or of. System load also as expected, nothing out of the ordinary. Hope you find a solution soon. Regards, Peter

You're welcome. I don't actually experience any crashes at all, with or without Open CL. Peter

I can confirm this issue with Open CL on. Also affecting sharpening brush. Regards Peter Win 11 i7 16Gb GTX1660super

Same here, working as expected.

Perhaps you could also give the latest Beta a shot. A lot of improvements with regard to HW acceleration have been implemented. Runs fine for me. You can download from this link: Success! Peter

Thank you for your research. To me it makes sense. Much appreciated. Peter

Hi Stupac62, You can download the beta using the following link: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/144029-affinity-photo-windows-customer-beta-11001085/ Success, Peter

Go to "more" button and set spacing to 1% See if this works for you.

Not able to reproduce with or without OpenCL

Therefore I'm always using Firefox, never a problem.

You are welcome

Hi Galm, I did find a little bit of time for you and did the test, precisely as you prescribed. It took 25 seconds and another time 30 seconds to deselect which is not too different from your attempt. I don't think there is anything wrong with your machine. BTW what type of processor do you have, mine is an i7 10700F. Anyway I hope this was of any assistance to you. Best regards, Peter

I will do the test for you, unfortunately, at this moment I am strapped for time. Will be next week, I'm sorry for that
