I'm not following why it's not working the same for you. I've tried in both versions and they work the same. If the canvas is not large enough to accommodate the additional 5px outline, you must increase it enough so that it can. However you can choose the Inside alignment option for the outline fx and not have to fiddle about with increasing canvas size. This also works the same for both versions. If that is not what you're having problems with, could you please provide a screen recording showing what it is.

I'm not able to replicate this on Windows. So possibly a Mac issue?

I see the same on Windows.

On windows, I've seen this but it is sporadic. I've tried with HA on and off, and could get the same results. Again it's sporadic so may take a while for it to show again.

Like this? Here's a screenshot of V2.1. They moved the Studio Menu selections from the View menu to the Window menu.

I'm not seeing any delay at all. Not when I try it on my system, and certainly not in the examples. I don't think it's possible to make it expand/collapse faster. That's like saying a hummingbird's wings are too slow.. 😁

No, AP does not have any setting to auto reduce the resolution. What's the pixel size of your image? It could be that you're image is shot some other size.

I'm going to make a guess at what you mean by Like Walt and RCR mentioned, there's really no difference concerning the filters between V1 & V2. Could you possibly be asking about having a Studio (Panel) like the Adjustment Studio?

I've checked with a tech, and my memory should be fine. I upgraded it a couple of years ago.

I agree 100%. However, the fix is anything but simple. To understand this, do you know how many variables there are for Windows machines, video cards(GPU), and different versions of each processors (CPU), different makes, versions of each? This problem is not unique to Affinity apps, other apps have the same problem when it comes to the Hardware Acceleration working or not. This is just my opinion: I think due to the way Serif coded Affinity, the usage of mipmaps, where the entire image/document is not fully loaded to memory, whereas other apps do not use mipmaps, so they're apps may have more latitude for excusing errors, and not crash the apps, or corrupt files. But the trade of is, the other apps may not be as fast, responsive, as what the Affinity apps are. As an aside, I'm in the process of upgrading my machine. Currently my GPU does not meet the requirements for HA, it's too old. So I've purchased a PSU, upping the wattage, CPU, newer faster Intel, and then a GPU/video card. This would make the HA available to me. I'm not 100% exited about this. Why? Because right now, I don't experience any of these crashes, hangs, whatever. My machine is 10 yrs old, and not susceptible to the issues, but soon will be.

Same here. Must be a windows thing.

I just clicked on the link you provided in your post, which took me to Serif's online Help page, where you're provided links to the proper platform help. Selecting the PC/MAC link, it detects that I'm running Windows, and the Help is based on Windows. The easiest way to check this, is look up the Shortcuts on the online help. For me they're all Windows shortcuts, ie; CTL (control) and not Command. I don't know why any one would want to read the help information for a platform they're not running. You want to read MAC access using a MAC. The only reason for wanting or needing to read the other, is when working as support personnel to look up information while providing help. I personally think this is very clever for the web team to design it this way. If not, I know I would not like fumbling through information that would not pertain to my system. However if it wasn't this way, there would be those complaining about having to wade through all the text to just find the help for their system. Yep, I'd be one of those...

Hi & Welcome to the forums @TAFKAT, In AP go to Edit>Settings>Performance. Uncheck the HA (Hardware Acceleration/Open CL) box. Restart AP and see if that corrected it. You might also check to see if your GPU/ video drivers are up to date. Check the Nividia website, do not rely on Windoze.

Not 100% sure, but I do believe this is not a bug, but by design. Most brushes have a minimum size, starting point. What would you prefer the size be? Depending on the size of your image/document, a 50px brush used in a very large image would be hard to see unless you zoom way in. Perhaps make a request for improvement in the Feedback & Suggestion forum

In your screenshot, you don't have a Layer selected. Do you have this problem with a layer selected in the Layers Panel?

What OS? Which app? The square brackets work fine for me in all the Affinity apps, Windows 10.

Publisher & Designer are the only apps I'm aware of where that's possible.

I don't know how you managed to have the Crop Tool markings (corners, sides) for Publisher show up in Photo. What your screenshot shows is not the Crop tool for Photo.

Not so on Windows, the File>Save is not greyed out.

Are you using a pen/tablet or just a mouse? Issue with pen/tablet in Develop Persona and Overlay Issue with Overlay Painting in Develop Persona using mouse, fixed in newer version Any reason why you're not running AP version 1.10.6.1665 ?

I've never had this problem with my Wacom, PTZ 431W, tablet. What model is your Wacom tablet? Wired or Wireless?

Are you serious? Really? It's too easy to blame things for our personal issues. 🙄

There must be a bug then, because it is not still rotated when switching back. I think that's what Ezbaze is reporting. 2023-06-26 07-48-45.mp4

My screen capture program doesn't always capture the cursor.
