[Nik Collection 1 Issues]

4 hours ago, Zenfoto said:

Can I confidently expect normal functionality of all or most of my Nik v1 plugins after installing the v.1.7.3 update?

Hi, I am using APhoto 1.7.3 and have no problems with the NIK Collection 1. Everything works fine.

Thanks. I logged it with our developers. 

By the way, the same thing happens using MacOS High Sierra 10.13.4, with Metal deactivated.

Cheers, Puck

Hi @Puck,

Can you attach the afphoto file in question?

Thanks,

Gabe. 

Doesn't work ... Maybe you can give me a dropbox link?

A few more examples that the fx- function (layer effects) is badly programmed ... see screenshots ...

Hi there, I used a 3D effect and Outer Glow on the ball and a layer behind the ball with a brush of white paint. The jpg looks even uglier. See screenshots.

Best regards, Puck.

Hi, I downloaded the tiff and can confirm the described behaviour - APhoto chrashed immediately. Pixelmator, GraphicConverter and XnViewMP (e.g.) open the tiff without problems.

Crashreport attached ...

Add: I'm definitely not an expert at this, but I guess something's wrong with your tiff. None of my tiffs ever crashed APhoto.

Hi Puck,
Yes, the issue persists in v1.7.3. I've bumped the report yet again since it wasn't checked/reviewed despite being already assigned to a dev. I'm sorry for the inconvenience this is causing you.

Hi MEB, I just wanted to remind you. It's not a problem that really bothers me. As long as everything else works I can live with it. But good to know that the developers will work on it.

[And then that happened!]

Congratulations and my deep respect for the work of the team! Cheers!

I'm sure it will. Just give the dev team some more time.

In Photo 1.7.3 MAS this bug is still present ...

Hi KevinPhoto,
Welcome to Affinity Forums
Out of curiosity, aren't you able to reduce the noise using either the live filter version (menu Layer > New Live Filter Layer > Noise > Denoise) or the destructive version (menu Filters > Noise > Denoise)? If so do you mind attaching a file/sample where both live and destructive versions fail to remove the noise properly? What type of images are you working with?

Hi MEB, just give us back the old filter and everything will be fine 

 

[New From Clipboard Bug]

17 hours ago, ChristiduToit said:

When working in a 300dpi document (or any resolution document for that matter), if I copy any object and go to File - New From Clipboard, the newly created document is at 96dpi.
Surely this should also be at 300dpi, or mimic the resolution from the document is was copied from? Just putting this out there. 

I can confirm this behavior. It also irritates me every time.

Hi user_0815,
Thanks for your report. I'm not sure if this is indeed working as intended. I will check with the dev team and will get back to you.

Hi MEB, maybe it has already been mentioned elsewhere, but "Remove White Matte" and "Remove Black Matte" doesn't seem to do anything and has no function! But perhaps I'm just too stupid to understand what these functions should do ... hmmm ...

Hi Puck,
Seems to be working fine here. Can you check if the shortcut is still assigned in Affinity Preferences, Keyboards Shortcuts section (Photo/Miscellaneous dropdown) please?

Ok, got it.Yep, now it works. Thanks a lot MEB!

[“D” key resets fills to black & white ...]

No, it doesn't. The Beta did it, but not the final version

Thanks Puck,

My pleasure, Chirs

For "Remove White Matte" and "Erase White Paper" you have used the same german translation: "Weißen Hintergrund entfernen"

This bug/report is still open. There wasn't time to fix it for this build. Hopefully in one of the upcoming versions....

Hi MEB, thank you very much for the quick answer. Well, at some point this little bug will surely be fixed. Fingers crossed

Thanks for your report Puck. Issue logged to be looked at (metal issue). It also affects the Median Brush Tool.

Hi MEB, it still happens in Photo Beta 1.7.2.153 GM ...

Hi! There's a little glitch with the Blur Brush Tool in Photo beta 150 RC2: It does its job, but the live preview becomes transparent. But not always! I guess it depends on the type of file ... maybe

Metal on.

 

And it also happens in Photo beta 151 RC3 ...
