  1. Yes I did see what his cursor was pointing at. However this thread is about the Artboard tool tip showing Rectangle, and not Artboard?

    In my example if I hovered over the layer inside the Artboard, which is an Ellipse, the tooltip states Ellipse. I created it by creating an Ellipse shape, then using the Artboard tool, in the Context toolbar, I choose Selection from the drop-down, and Insert Artboard. It's an Ellipse, but for some reason the icon looks like it was clipped by the rectangular shape of the Artboard.

    Without knowing how blend modes work in a technical way, it just seems like something that should be possible.

    Ok, here you go, some video tutorials explaining how Blend Modes Work in Affinity Photo

    YouTube Blend Modes

    Also I've played around with your samples. Not really knowing what the result is to look like, I think just working with maybe a Curves Adjustment to increase contrast? It also makes a difference when using Blend Modes, which one is being blended into the other. If you tried with the B&W image on top, then flip them, put the color on top and experiment with the blend modes.

    You might also have a look at the Blend Ranges which helps tweak them. It's a very powerful tool.

    Thank you Ron P., that got me a little bit further. How did you make the bar on the left so wide in your video?

    Go to View>Customize Tools, it's at the bottom of the menu. Then you can add/remove icons for the tools you want by dragging and dropping, and also the number of rows. I have mine set to 4 Rows.

  4. The only similar toggle I'm aware of is the space bar in windows. Pressing and holding the spacebar invokes the Hand/Pan tool. Release it, and you're back at the prior tool. For example if you're using the Pen tool to outline an object, and you need to move the canvas. You don't need to select the hand tool to move the canvas, then select the pen tool again. Just press down the spacebar and hold it.
