Hi
I'm looking for similar option(I linked image to this post) in Photo. I found Selective color fillter, BUT it lacks colors like in photoshop. lIke purple. Is there similar functionality?
My main case of use is when I have this photo, that was taken in god knows what light conditions, photos are heavily purple (Tint slider won' thelping), so I use this feature in photoshop, and easily remove any purple/Blue/magenta.
Thank you!

Thank you @shustovcreates
When you tested it on the Ipad Pro 2017, it works smoothly immediatly after you opened it or you waited some time?
Yes Ipad is immediately responsive
I tested it more, your file becomes responsive after 3 minutes for me

Hm. Your file was extremely laggy, impossible to work on my Ryzen 5700G which is always snappy.
So I created new document and pasted your data in it, then I removed fx from the layers in the bottom, and it became buttery smooth. I’m not sure if that was the solution was, I’ll try find time to test it more tomorrow
ps: I also tried removing every layer one after another but no luck
pps: I tested on IPad Pro 2017 and everything works smoothly all the time

@Hellodesigners Can you share this file to test? It would help understand if it is machine issue, file issue or software issue

@Hellodesigners Two years later and the performance is still pretty bad for me on windows. I've even upgraded my pc to a 12-core Ryzen CPU and still using my GTX 1070 graphics card. Still disappointed with performance with or without hardware accel.
Hi, did you try to reinstall windows since your post with a video ? I'm just curious if you tried this, cause these lags on the video are suspicious
-
Hi @Hellodesigners! My issue was
solvedbecome better by implementation of hardware acceleration. So in my case, if I want to increase performance, I need to enable it.I've read your thread. Video would be helpful to understand it better and in with what kind of project you experience slowdown .
I would start from increasing ram limit and enabling hardware acceleration

Hi

Windows 1.10.1.1142

Thank you. Hope devs will fix this issue

Hi @shustovcreates,
You created your circles with the "Donut" tool, create them with the "Ellipse Tool" instead, convert them to curves and "Expand Stroke" will work as expected.
first thing - it was pie. second- I have a lot of icons made this way.. do you suggest recreating them all?

Man... Im speechless.
Im literally just gave affinity another chance and there it is again. The most stupid issue you can ever imagine, making it impossible to complete your task.BTW it seems my ipad doesnt have this issueEdit: I was wrong, its the same thing
1.9.2.1035
I regret spending my money on affinity
I mean.. WHY?? Is it HARD?
also theres a post with same issue from 5 months ago:https://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/144848/affinity-designer-how-can-i-preserve-a-stroke-cap-when-i-expand-stroke -
@Joachim_L Sorry I was wrong, Mangal is actually there pasted with text from another document. Sorry was not able to replace font. Didnt have time for it

The file saves without problems for me. But I don't have the fonts Mangal and Montserrat installed. Maybe one of the fonts is causing the problem? Try to replace both fonts with e.g. Arial and save again.
Where did you try to save the file to? Have you tried to save to desktop?
Yes it does! but after some work done it stopped working
I cant say why. I dont know.
Also I dont have any mangal font in my file.Monserrat is old and I doubt it can malfunctionYes I tried to save it on desktop. Didnt work. Cyrillic on non cyrillic path, doesnt matter

Finally I manage to squeeze an opportunity to try affinity for real project and same error for me right now in publisher.
This happened to me twice. At start of project and now in the middle. I couldnt retrieve file even with snapshots option.
I'll pin my file
I am very unhappy with this guys

Hi!
This is what I had(screenshot). Affinity imported image with black border. Dunno why. This PDF is not mine and I dont know how it was done.
I managed to solve this issue by resaving PDF in Illustrator. After that black border was gone.
I will pin original pdf here

I just want to add to this thread that performance for me on Windows in both Designer and Photo has been unbelievably abysmal. The attached video shows what it looks like just panning the view around on a very small file with not a lot of elements. The amount of lag and stutter is insane. Any change I make with an adjustment layer in Photo lags for over a second sometimes. WHEN WILL THIS BE IMPROVED????
I've messed with all the performance and snapping settings with no change.My specs:
Intel i5 6600K
Gigabyte G1 GTX 1070 8GB
16GB Ram
Running on an M.2 SSD
hooked up to a 60Hz 1080p monitor and a 144Hz 1440p monitorI get better performance on my 2017 Macbook Pro! This is the only thing keeping me from loving this software and recommending it to people. Please do something.
Hi!
Thats strange. Could you share your file for me to test?
Also to add to this thread:
I upgraded my pc to ryzen 3700 x and rtx 2060 super and performance stayed the same . maybe 5-10 percent better, but still not working properly
Thats strange. I dont

1. + 2.: The only time I experience lags is, when there are many complex elements on the page or even one very complex element (with lots of nodes). What could help is turning off some of the Snapping options. From my experience I don't need the complete set of Snapping options to be activated altogether.
3.: Agreed, that should be added or to be more clearly: EVERY function should have the option for a shortcut.
4.: You can adapt the shortcut to your needs e.g. Alt+X.
5.: What file type did you place for text wrap? These tons of nodes look weird. Maybe they came from an IDML import? Perhaps you could use "Edit Wrap Outline" on this image?
1. do you use mac or windows? if windows what cpu & gpu you use? you can follow link to the thread where I complain about perfomance, theres a video
I will link my file for educational purposes: https://yadi.sk/d/WJsLzV2I_zZMLQ

Hi everyone!
Yesterday I finished my first project made only in affinity publisher. Most of the time I use indesign, but this time, since brandbook I used was made in PDF, it was convenient for me to import PDF directly into publisher and copy from it into my project file.
Working as a graphic designer full time, I do a lot of projects every day and if something is wrong about software, I will see it right away.
So that’s what problems I found?
1. Same poor performance as I stated in this thread: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/103368-poor-performance-on-windows/&tab=comments#comment-570688
2. When I was finishing project, publisher started lagging, and its actually different from my 1st point. This made working barely possible. When I selected and moved text for example, there was a freeze for 5 seconds. After that no lags. But when I scrolled to another page lag repeated. Interestingly, after I restarted publisher , problem went away. Before restarting software I checked system monitor, there was no 100 percent usage of anything. Just usual high load on CPU, just as with any affinity product. Sorry if I explained this problem badly. P.s. all files are linked not embedded.
3. Non existent Hot key or Icon for Picture Frame Properties
4. Complex shortcut for preview mode, ctrl shift w is pretty big shortcut for such often used feature
5. I wasn’t been successful with text wrap feature. I made a short video :
my PC is i5 7500, 16 gb ram, integrated graphics. Publisher version1.8.3.641

Recent. Made it in designer desktop and finished in publisher, because only publisher supports hyperlinks. Made using Organika Design Kit for Affinity Designer. Made my process easy and fun. @Frankentoon, thank you!
