  1. I had to edit an aerial photograph of a parking area, full of cars. I needed an empty car park. The paving area is textured.

    I pasted a polygon with the place command. I was in a hurry to do the presentation.

    What is the easiest wat to copy from the clean part of the image and paste the picked part to another are on the same image?

    I am not very fond of the way to export and place as new image.

    I can't find a "paste from clipboard option". If you mean "New from clipboard" that is for creating new documents. If you want to paste something into an existing document, you should use Control + C then Control + V. (or Layer, Paste Inside to constrain the pasted item within the existing document.)

    I mean New from Clipboad. It gives the old original clipboard image over and over.

    Here is my dumb question: Do you have anything actually selected when you copy the second time? I do this rather a lot, several times in a row even after I realize I have nothing selected.

    Yes,

    I selected something after I used the selction tool, selected by pressing Control + C and then paste from clipboard. It pasted the previous copy. Tried it several times.

    It even did the same when I tried to copy three layers over to another image.

     

  4. I have noticed weird behaviour after the latest update in Affinity Photo.

    New from clipboard only works once.

    I can copy something new, but copy from clipboard will now paste the first copy.

    I cannot coppy even layers to another photo, same thing happen.

     

    It worked perfectly until latest update.

    I am sometimes able to clear the issue by closing all images and start afresh.

    Will a clipboard clearing app help?

  5. I have loaded a psd file of a gel text in Affinity Photo Desktop 1.7.2.

    I have saved the style and got a blank icon. There is not the usual gear with colour.

    I have renamed it to recognise it again. So I see the name in styles, but there is no image. 

    When I apply it, it works perfectly and do what I want.

    Is there a way to manually load an icon on somewhere to rectify the problem?

    The styles I previously saved as such, display an icon.

     

  6. I am a user of ViaCAD 11 Pro as well as the Affinity trio.

    I always get the display message that Via CAD has reverted to Windows 7 basic colour scheme when I stat Via CAD.

    Affinity Photo and the beta refuse to start while ViaCad is open. It prompts me that Windows Aero is needed. I have no idea what it is.

    So now, i have to use some other program when I am working with ViaCad to save the captured screenshots.

    Hi Johan Crous,

    Certainly AD can rescale images by percents or by units. But I'm uncertain about what you are asking. Can you post an URL to the Adobe method? 

    I suppose you need a specific piece of printed paper or digital file with cut lines for some specific cutting/plotter application, which is something I know little about. But creating the vectors should be pretty easy.

    Yes, I include the url for you.

    I only want to draw cut lines for printing to the correct size on an ordinary A4 paper printer.

  8. I am new to Affinity Designer.

    I just managed to get to work comfortly with Affinity Photo on PC. I have it since November. The Photo for iPad, I purchased about six weeks ago (when I purchased an iPad) and I manage. It is not so much different if you know Android. However, it was a learning process the learn how iOs operates.

    I purchased the iPad Designer a few days ago and I am trying to get my feet wet.

     

    I recently watched a video from Ian Atkinson, using Adobe Illustrate, where he place a camera photo (of a knife) on a document. He measured the length of the knife and then used a command where he states that measurement between two points. AI then scaled the document correctly. I assume he must specify somewhere what the paper size will be.

     

    He then draws outlines for his leather cut list to make a pouch and accurately prints them.

     

    Can this be done in Designer for iPad, or must I make two points, print and then calculates on what scale I must print and reprint?

     

    I can also start a template with the right dimensions and place a ruler image as a layer and then scale the object according to the ruler?

    It looked like a great app - I simply want to edit images and export them as jpgs for the web. Adobe lets you export for the web and creates beautiful files that are tiny - affinity photo creates large, terrible looking images.

    I am mostly using Affinity Photo, although I have Photoshop CS6 and Paintshop Pro 2018.

    I export my affinity photos to Jpg for my web page. I am an author and post my book cover pages.

    I only get a little larger size if I prefer the size to be big. The quality is exceptional. I can define dpi as well. I can assure you Affinity Photo do not have to back down for other apps.

  10. GabrielM, it is working. In the iPad version I made the sellection and nothing happened apart from the sellection ellips appearing.

    So I canged back to ordinary persona, select Paste boards, copy, and new pixel layer, sellect the layer, back to Paste boards and paste.

    Then it is there. I need the edge to be about five times wider, the section where the sellection fades to transparent.

    The biggest edge effect is with feathering at 7.5, but I guess the image pixel size is the determining factor.
