Well, took a few years. 2023, and I think the AI revolution is here. Here is what Apple are doing with using FaceLit technology. Simple 2D images. I don't think it will be long until we see something like this in Affinity Photo and Photoshop. FaceLit: Neural 3D Relightable Faces - Apple Machine Learning Research

My bad. Just read that totally wrong on the phone 📱 I'll give myself a slap.

It's a forum to ask questions. That's the whole point of it. If anyone has a simple question, ask away. If you think it's a stupid question, ignore it.

Excellent. Thanks to James and the team.

Excellent. Any chance we'll be getting a new series of Workbooks? I really need some new book smell in my life.

No worries. I've emailed support. They can probably sort it easily enough. Would be handy if I could clear registered products via my account though.

Does not work. I cannot sign in to my software regardless if I open as Administrator. I click on the Mt Account icon on the top right, try to sign in but get this error message 'We're sorry - Something went wrong during registration or sign-in'.

That's what I've done. When I then go to register the products upon opening I get an error. I input my key successfully, there seems to be an error resistering though. I did not sign out by the way before I updated my OS.

I have a new install of Windows 11, but my Affinity Suite is registered to my old Windows 10 PC (same computer, different OS). How do I unregister from the old and register the new? On my account I cannot edit my registered products.

Neither Affinity Photo or Designer are 3D painting applications. You're not going to beat the free Quixel Mixer, which is insanely powerful and has yet another update today. Kirk23 makes a great point that if the Affinity software is going to have any sort of gaming specific functions, it should compliment these 3D painting applications. It's not trying to compete with them. I also noticed today that both Affinity Photo and Designer now have NVIDIA accelerated features. Nice!

I did ask 'does Affinity have any plans in the future'. I'm not saying it's something anyone needs right now. We have Affinity Photo/Designer/Publisher, an entire suite. So we now have all the core software in a complete form. Of course a portfolio trumps any piece of paper, isn't that obvious? As for how would certification help you, clearly it would help you in the job market - Autodesk and Adobe do it specifically for this reason, but yes at the moment it would take a lot of time and money to set up and organise. I'm only a hobbyist, but I have worked in other areas/disciplines, and in those areas being Autodesk Certified for example is like having a massive stamp on your CV saying that this person knows their stuff. Saves the client the risk of hiring someone who has absolutely no idea about the software (which does happen).

There hasn't been an Affinity Publisher workbook as of yet. I prefer workbooks to read offline as well as go through. Something a lot more satisfying having a tactile new workbook, with that new book smell...... ooooohhhh that new book smell - If they bottled that as an aftershave I'd buy it!

Ahh, I was typing a combination of either just 8, or 8px to see if I could specify a unit.

Can someone help me out here? I create a circle (10px by 10px) with a thickness of 2, CTRL+J to copy, go into the Transform box and type +8 in the W: and H: section. So I now have my duplicate circle (increased 8 pixels both in the width and height). OK, so all I want to do now is to power duplicate and keep pressing CTRL+J however many times I want to make these circles, each one 8 pixels larger than the previous. Isn't the expression of +8 in both the W and H correct? I'm not getting each circle +8 pixels larger than the last.

+1 this. I'm just about to buy the game F1 2020 (PC version). You can create your own custom livery and import it into the game. But, uses .dds support. Check Affinity.... nope. I remember not too long back Affinity had no TGA support which it does now, so I'm hoping this will be another option to export than can simply be added to the software, pretty please!
