Dear MEB, Thank you very much for your reply and continued patience. It now seems clear that somehow I must purchased Affinity Designer not Affinity Photo. I made my purchase on 4/5/2017 (note year - because I could never seem to get it working I rather gave up trying unitl recently)

Dear MEB, Thank you very much for your reply and continued patience. It now seems clear that somehow I must have purchased Affinity Designer not Affinity Photo. I made my purchase on 4/5/2017, [product key removed for privacy reasons] (note year; because I could never seem to get it working I rather gave up trying unitl recently). I have no idea how I came to get issued the wrong one especially since I was not aware that there were two different programs. What to do now? Christopher

Thanks again Continuing with my "low IQ mode", it seems likely that I want to be in Digital Photo, not Digital Designer. How do I get there? I don't remember ever being faced with a choice. Christopher

Thanks. I am using a PC. When I go to Help - About it says Designer 1.6.5.135 Christopher

Thanks. It seems that I must be in Affinity Designer not Photo, but am pretty befuddled about the difference (you may have noticed!). I signed up to (I thought) to Affinity Photo and the tutorials (or many of them) relate to Photo. But when I open the file it says Affinity Designer 1.6.5.135. Christopher

Thanks, I am sure that you are right! How do I open into Affinity photo, and not designer? CMP

Thank you. I have done that and still "Mode" does not show! Help please Christopher

In the help on Cropping Tutorial, when you click on the Crop Tool a line appears at the top of the screen including ”Mode” which activates a drop-down panel of options for pictures /pixel sizes. When I click on the crop tool I do not find the “Mode” option. Why?
