[remove all white or any background from line art to transparency]

Thank you. I missed that somehow. They have made it so simple.

[remove all white or any background from line art to transparency]

Is there someone who can point me to the directions to remove all the white background from line art or sketch to change it to transparency?  I would be appreciative.

Thank you RCR. This is great.

[photo to line art]

Can anyone direct me o a source  on how to turn a photo line art in either Photo or Designer with a result similar to Akvis Sketch?

[CMYK in Photo]

I have many photos in RGB and when I go to print them, with a pro printer, they come out with the wrong color, usually darker as their equipment is cmyk. . I cannot find a way to convert them to cmyk in Photo. I must be missing something. In Designer, you can go to Shift-control-p and get to a cmyk setting change and the change of color is obvious. Is there something similar in photo.? One needs to see the difference as one works on the photo.

I found the preferences. I know you can set it to print ready in NEW, but when I bring in the RGB photo, it still says RGB on the upper ribbon (dashboard).

[Lucis pro]

Has anyone tried to use it as a plug in in affinity photo? We're you successful? We're you using the old or new version? I seem to have lost my old copy .I was thinking about getting the new one.  I just wanted to check and see if it works. 

Thanks in sdvance.

[Windows Explorer afphoto Thumbnails]

Open up a pictures file folder windows explorer. Click on view on the top. It opens another area. Click on the options area on the top right. Go to view. Under the files and folder area, uncheck always show icons and never thumbnails. Then click on ok.  It should show the photos.

[Plugins greyed out]

I figured it out. The update somehow caused me to have to readd the folders that contained the plugins  to the list. I do not know why they were not recognized in the first place, as the list of plugins was there, but readding the folders caused them to work again.

[Plugins greyed out]

That did not work. The allow unknown plugins was ticked. I tried unticking it and re ticking it, but that did not work. All are listed with the word unknown in yellow. Any other ideas?

[Plugins greyed out]

On the latest update to Affinity Photo, the plugins from Nik and Topaz are greyed out and no longer working. They worked fine before the update. How do I get them back working?

Thanks in advance.

[Plugins not working]

I turned of the computer and then turned  on and opened Photo and found that the plugins were now working. I have no clue as to why they did not work the first time. I did nothing else but turn the program and computer on and off. I did everything the same to start as I did the second time.

[Plugins not working]

I meant to say that the plugins were not working in the title.

[Plugins not working]

All of my Nik and Topaz plugins are listed, but they do not work. I am sure there is something I have done wrong, but I do not know what. They used to work, but now they do not, and I have done nothing that I know of that would have caused this.

Any help would be appreciated. Please be as specific as you can.

[Luts compatibility]

Are all LUTS that are in the .cube format compatible with Affinity photo? There are many free ones out there, and I would like to know which to choose. What about 3d LUTS?

[Problem with plugins - Topaz disappeared when I put in Nik]

Where do I find the affinity preferences window? The only thing I see is the list of plugins that is under filters or under edit preferences.

 

I am not sure what I am sending is what you want.

The topaz filters were all there and working like a charm before Nik. Now they are not listed on the filter drop down. I cannot seem to get a snipping tool capture of that.

[Problem with plugins - Topaz disappeared when I put in Nik]

I installed all the Topaz plugins that I had and they worked well. then I installed the Nik plugin folder and the Topaz plugins disappeared from the Affinity Photo filters menu and only two NIk ones show up.

Where is the Affinity plugins folder located for Windows?

How do I remove a plugin? Specifically Nik.... How do I get the Nik ones to install properly?

If I remove the Nik plugins, will the installed Topaz plugins show up?

This is a fine program but an online manual would help. Yes, I know there are lots of great videos, but they are not on this topic.

[Do I understand this correctly?]

I read on one of the pages somewhere that all updates until you get to the final version are free. Is that correct?   If not, what is the correct policy?

Also, do you intend to add a simple file management module like bridge or something similar to Lightroom so that the photos would be visible when one goes to hunt?.

[3rd party plugins]

I have some third party plugins in Photoshop that I want to move to Affinity Photo. there are presently in the plugins folder in Photoshop. If I remove Photoshop they will be gone. How do I move them to a place where they will stay in Affinity.? I presently have them showing in the plugins folder under filter.
