Well, that was strange. What seemed to have happened was that I put a negative the wrong way around in my scanner and therefore had to rotate the image to get it the right way up. I'm certain I've done that before, but without problems. Rescanning with the neg the correct way around then doing a little straightening gave me an image where the blemish removal brush worked fine. Very strange. Anyway I'll know in future to make certain the negs the right way round in the scanner. A simpler question. - how do you get crosswires instead of a circle for aligning blemish removal and other brushes? Thanks for your help. Graham

I've got a strange problem with the blemish removal tool that has appeared recently. Previously if I put the circle of the brush over a blemish and then dragged it to another part of the photo, then whatever was being picked by the brush would appear over the blemish. Now the part of the photo that appears over the blemish comes from an area of the photo some distance away from the brush. In some ways it is behaving like a healing brush tool. Recent events on the computer, a desktop imac are the addition of a plugin, Neatimage and uploading a new version of Big Sur. I reset Affinity so that the plugin did not appears in the filter menu, but this made no difference. I don't know if I've accidentally altered a setting, but it's a tool that I've used many, many times in the past with no problems. Any thoughts? Thanks, Graham

I'm having a problem installing Focus Magic onto my desktop (operating system Mac Catalina). Whatever I do in preferences eg ticking the Allow Unknown Plugin to be Used button, I still get a message saying that Mac can't open it because it's from an unknown developer. Any suggestions? I've had problems with Catalina's security system before -it's a bit of a nightmare!

After talking to the developed it seems that because of Catalina's more robust Gatekeeper system I need to do a control/click on the plugin file icon to create an exception for the app. When I try to open the app in Affinity I just get an "are you sure you want to proceed notice" which I can just agree to. -

Thanks I'll see what Focus Magic have to say before doing anything with the Mac security. -

Thanks for the reply. Affinity was already set to "allow unknown plugin to be used". I suspect that the problem lies with Catalina, the latest Mac os system. I know that it has created problems for various apps. I've sent Focus Magic a query to see if they have encountered this problem.
