Affinity website getting Malicious website warning from Norton. Looking at upgrading Photo and I get this warning from Norton. I notice the web address is different than Affinity so clicking on the Google link seems to bring up the wrong address. Help.

Thanks for that info, it was very helpful.

Hi, I belong to a Photo Club and did a workshop on using Affinity Photo, most of the members use Photoshop and I've been trying to get them to switch to Affinity Photo. One member who bought Affinity Photo emailed me and said that all his Photoshop files were converted to Affinity Photo and he couldn't get the Photoshop files back. I don't use Photoshop so I'm not sure if there is a way for him to retain his Photoshop format and still use Affinity Photo. Most of the members thought Affinity Photo looked good but there are some die hard Photoshop users so I'm wondering if there's a way to do this. Appreciate any help with this. Thanks.

Thanks Chris, I thought it might be something like that

So I use Affinity Photo as a Plugin to Lightroom 6. Everything seems to work fine but when I select save history and I close the program and reopen it my History is gone. I'm teaching a workshop on Photo coming up in March and this is one of the most important features that I plan to talk about. Any help with this is appreciated.

Thanks I didn't notice that, that fixed it.

Hi this is not quite the same issue but is an example of selection not doing what I want. I was trying to select the whole wharf with the freehand selection tool to remove it but it reverts this triangular shape.

I've been noticing that if I have a document with layers for masking that when I try to select an object it's hard to get the selection to snap to the edge of the object, if I remove the background layer above the layer that I'm trying to do the selection on then the snapping seems to work just fine. I'm hoping someone can help me understand this.

So I just opened a Galaxy Note 9 image and created a pixel layer to do some inpainting, I decided to check the RGB Waveform and switched from Intesity to RGB but the scope is not changing. Also trying to make a freehand selection for Inpainting on the edge of the canvas but I only get a small portion of what I'm trying to select (I am trying to select by going outside the canvas as well). I seems this has something to do with my second monitor as well, I noticed that when I dragged Photo to my Laptop Monitor and changed to a different window and went back to my document the RGB Waveform came back. I'm using a top of the line Asus Gaming Laptop with i7-8750 and Geforce GTX 1060 video card.

I also used to be able to download tutorial videos from Affinity tutorial selection from the Help menu. But now there is no download options. If I go to Vimeo and search for Affinity tutorials and I log in I can get the download button on some of the videos but not all of them, also very hard to find the video I want on the Vimeo site. I would be nice if Affinity allowed us to download the videos from the Help menu tutorial videos.

Sorry Guys, I just figured it out. My mistake, I have 3 monitors and it was hidden on my 3rd monitor which is a 4k TV and it was set to a different input so I could't see it. So dumb, sorry about that.

After Windows 10 latest update my Photo will not start. I do get the thumbnail on the task bar and when I hover over it shows a representation of Photo but when I click on it nothing happens, I can click on the X and it closes but it won't open full screen. I tried turning off my Nvidia card but not difference. Please help.

Just bought a brand new Asus Gaming computer and now my lightroom 6 is not working properly, I have to turn off my Gpu and even then I have issues with Topaz and Lightroom working together. So now I have to decide am I going to pay for a subscription to Lightroom or hobble along till Affinity comes out with a replacement for Lighroom. I did look into Luminar 3 & 4 but they seem to be having some big issues looking at their forum. So Please Affinity help us out and let us know if your coming out with a Lighroom Replacement?

I really hope Serif comes up with a good Lightroom Replacement. I had a quick look at iMatch and wonder if anyone has tried it or is using it. I like the GPS mapping option, I'm now shooting with GPS so I need to see where I've been so I can go back again if needed.

If that is true that is great. Is this just a rumor or are you sure?
