Not sure if this is what you have in mind regarding clipping paths?
https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/tutorials/photo/desktop/video/318402519/
@Komatös has already explained how to resize an image as per your requirements so I think Affinity Photo is perfectly capable of meeting both in terms of functionality...
Right. In Affinity you can define a closed path/curve, with the pen tool, as selection for a cliping mask.

Hello @Waldo4280 and welcome to the forums.
The scenario you describe works with Affinity Photo
- Create a new file for example 1024 x 720 @72 dpi.
- Go to Document --> Resize Document
- Set DPI to 300
- Click in the field with the value for the document width and replace the unit (e.g. px) with -24%.
This will give you exactly the result you want.

Komatös: Thanks for the suggestion.
I checked my BIOS and it is UEFI/BIOS. The image below was edited using Affinity Photo with HW acceleration turned on.
I've been thinking more about this error and whether it is caused by hardware or software. If I had faulty hardware, my system would BSOD at somewhat random times and not in a particular application under particular circumstances. Now perhaps my hardware is configured improperly, but again why would it only show up with a particular application under particular circumstances. Is that the only application that exercises the improperly configure hardware? Given all the other image processing software I use, I doubt it. So I keep returning to something in Photo causing this unfortunate behaviour.
The preferences are exemplary. Sometimes it is tollerances in the electronic components that give you a headache in finding faults.
I am sure the developers have the problem in mind. -
Hello @Bogdan Kędzior and welcome to the forums.
First your english is perfect. But you can also write in your native language. We will then translate.
Can you set another web browser as the default browser and try it?
If it doesn't work with that either, you can get the new version with the following link: https://store.serif.com/update/windows/photo/1/

@Muldune Maybe you can deactivate RST in UEFI/BIOS.

Normally I always recommend updating drivers, but here I would suggest you to downgrade. To do this, however, you should/must completely uninstall the graphics card drivers. It is best to use DDU for this.
Here you can direct download

What does the colour management in your operating system show as the colour profile?

No problem re Publisher.
It is slower than Illustrator and other vector apps I've used. I did post a bug, haven't heard anything back yet.
You should know that the Affinity programmes always try to render the UI and all other things with the best possible quality. Most other programmes on the market don't do that! And the effort to always get everything on the screen with the best possible display quality costs computing time.

Hello @Not Important and welcome to the forums.
You can change these preferences in Windows under Start --> Preferences --> Ease of use.

Hello and welcome to the forums, @Patrick by the Sea
You can use the Colour Replacement Brush Tool. Press B or click at the little triangle near the paint brush icon.
You must first mask the areas that are to be recoloured. You must also take into account that reflections and mirroring remain in the selection areas.

Hello @Marie84
The Samsung Tab S7(+) is powered by Android OS, so there is no chance to run any Windows application on the tablet.

OK, ich hatte vergessen, Windows 7 hat kein Windows Ink.
Benutzt Du das Tablett über USB oder Kabellos? Bei USB könnte man evtl. noch was über die Pollingrate einstellen, aber da bin ich leider raus.
-
Guck mal bei den Einstellungen --> Performance welche Grafikkarte als Renderer ausgewählt ist und tausche sie mal probeweise.
-
Navigiere über Bearbeiten --> Einstellungen --> Tools und ändere die Eingabemethode für Grafiktablett. Bei mir hat sich Windows Ink bewährt.
Nutzt Du immer noch Windows 7? Wenn ja, schau mal, ob es neuere Treiber für USB gibt.

Hello. The update doesn't seem to have worked. I replaced my beta with the new one, but it still won't see 1.10.1 as a purchased version. It asks for the email and product key (which I don't have because it was from the Mac app store).
You have to download the Retail version 1.10.1 from the Apple Mac store.

Hello @deergod
In Windows, I would select all layers with the blue objects and in the export settings, in the Area option, select Selection only. So it may be different on iPad or Mac.

You wrote affinityorder@serif.com and I wrote affinity@serif.com
It can take some days till the support contact you.

OK, that have to cleared out from a Serif Support member. Please send an email to affinity@serif.com to solve this problem.

With Hangman's corrections it works with all PSD export profiles.
@Hangman How did you recognise the faulty setting levels?
