  1. Just updated to 1.9 and still the same. Now after 2+ years on AP I got tons of projects (fashion/advertising campaigns for examples) that I can't delete just because it would take tooooo long for every project to empty the corresponding folders pic but pic to finally have the Delete option available. I don't have that time because my job is to be a photographer, I thought you made this software for ppl like me as well right?RIGHT??? 

    Guys really....WHy WHY nobody care about improving simple things like these????

    Good morning,

    It looks to me (maybe I'm wrong) that is not possible to set some default settings to the crop tool. I'd like for example to have it always set on "Original Ratio" and with the "Darken Border" always checked, in order to speed up a basic process like cropping a bunch of catalog photos. I've found this intuitive option in every processing software I've used so far but can't figure it out here. 

    Any ideas? If such a thing doesn't exist for AP it would be awesome to have it ASAP since it'll speed up the workflow, especially when working on several images.

    Thanks

    Hi mlx,
    Welcome to Affinity Forums :)
    No, this setting is still not sticky. There's already an improvement request filled with the dev team but it's still open. I've bumped it to bring it up to devs attention.

    Just updated to 1.9. No progress.

    Hi guys,

    Not sure if this will help but here is how I use Affinity Photo mixer brush the same way we use it in photoshop for skin retouching in a low frequency sep.

    To make the brush act just like photoshop mixer brush I use the follwoing setting:

    • Flow: set it to what's working for you. I use 13% for skin in photoshop and 3% in affinity seem to be roughly the equivalent.
    • Under more: set wet edges to "Set wet edges 'on'"
    • UNTICK auto load brush as this will continuously load the brush with the first color set on your color swatch. And make sure to clean the brush by clicking on clean brush.
    • That way your brush will sample and mix colors base on each initial brush stroke.
    • Strength 80% or to your liking.

    Hi Guys,

    For those doing skin retouching, have you guys found your solution? If not, please read on. I might have what you want without having to go crazy pressing the "Clean Brush" button before every stroke.

    Just turn on the "Auto Load Brush" button, then set the color you are using to 0% opacity. There, your blender brush is clean and still works pushing the pixels around on your canvas without having to bother with the "Clean Brush" option. Hope this helps.

     

    Regards,

    Henry

    Thanks guys I just updated to 1.9 and came back to this old thread to see if any solution was found. I'll try your methods this next days but it looks like is not really mirroring what PS does, or at least you're not happy with it.  I'm on AP for 3 years now and specific important things like these are not really considered by Affinity, IDK why they just don't care.

    It's really frustrating. I think I have to get Adobe too.

    Can you please reset your Affinity Photo back to its default settings by holding down the CTRL key while launching the app. When the Clear User Data window appears, click Select All and then Clear. The app will now open.

    Be aware that resetting your app back to its default settings will lose any custom settings such as keyboard shortcuts and brushes etc. To backup such settings before resetting the app, please watch our Affinity: Exporting User Settings and Keyboard Shortcuts video. - https://player.vimeo.com/video/189596577/

    Just updated to 1.9 and the issue is still there. One year after. Any suggestions?

    Hi Buzzilla,

    I've just been using the Patch tool and can't replicate the crash.

    Can you try in the latest beta from here: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/107584-affinity-photo-customer-beta-180168-gm-seed/

    and see if you have the same results.

    I had the same problem and opened a thread a while ago. I now see someone else is having the same issue, and as him I tried everything, even after the update is still the same. As I said in my original thread, I'm lucky because I have an Ipad and I can send the files there through ICloud Drive but yet, I do that ONLY because it's impossible to use that tool on the desktop version without a crash. 

    Solutions please

    Thanks I'll try to do that and see if it's working. :)

    This is because technically, it's not a problem. 

     Technically, it's a real problem. Theoretically, you can believe it's not if you find it useful. We don't. If you don't see it as a problem, it's because you never retouch on real life situations or used this tool. You probably shouldn't be answering before doing that. Being able to build a photo software doesn't include by default being aware of what's useful or not for a photographer, that's the reason of a forum.

    The "Auto Clean Brush" is a feature you would like us to have, we don't have it.

    It's not ME, it's just a bunch of retouchers and photographers with more experience than the makers of this software, who are clearly simply requesting for something basic to be included because it's just weird not to have it, like programmers don't understand why is important. If you don't see it basic, it's because, again, you possibly have no experience at all in retouching. "We don't have it"...well.....I can see it and you should't brag about it.

    We have no ETA on implementing feature requests I'm afraid. 

    You should def listen to what people is listing here as missing features; through the whole forum the response to these issues is actually zero or, as in your case, mods are answering from a closed point of view "we do it like this and that's what it is".....looks to me like the Apple philosophy, take it or leave it.

     

    Was not this all Serif thing about making a change in software market and create a better relationship with customers? So naive right...

     

    Over and Out buddy 

     

  9. HI.

    Still need to find a way to set  MIN pixel lenght for H or V sides on batch exporting; the only numbers you can write are meant to be the MAX size you want. 

    Example: I can decide the max values for H or V side so the final image do not exceed it, but what if I need the smallest side to be i.e. 1200px and having AP to do the rest? This option is intuitive and for that reason widely available on any other software I know so far...

    It's quite a simple option that I can't see here on AP.

     

    Thanks

    Hello MEB,

     

    the only menu entry I see there is 'rename'. Looks like I cannot delete a project that contains images. How do I delete a project with all of its images?

     

    Best regards

    Hi, I quote this cause it's 2 years old and still no answers. 

    When clicking the 3 lines icon sometimes the only option available is Rename, on other projects I have the usual  Save, Close, etc....WHY? 

    Thanks

    Hi PoloSpace,

     

    There isn't at the moment.  The only preview is when you 1st set the size of the brush.  

     

    I'll move this over to the Feature Requests Section as it may be something that can be added in the future.

    Looks like after 2+years we're still waiting for an update of this feature or at least some response from the support team, I looked around and couldn't find a recent thread about this. 

    I do a lot of fine retouching (skin, beauty, advertising) and everything related with brush (cloning, dodge&burning, healing, etc..) can't be done with accuracy. As users, I think we've widely shown our needs and interest for an urgent update of this feature, we'd like not to be ignored. If your goal is to create a professional editing app, then listen to the needs of those users who work in this business and suggests you how to improve it for real life projects. 

    Thanks

    Hi arial_bold,
    Welcome to Affinity Forums :)
    Currently there's no way to make it the default option. I'm moving this thread to the Feature Requests section.

     

    Thanks MEB for the support, hope to see this feature on the next update. Also, a button to quickly invert the aspect ratio in between the 2 numbers (horizontal and vertical) would be awesome. Currently, if I select a standard crop of, i.e., 5x7 and I want a 7x5, I have to manually clear and re-type on both boxes. A single button (usually represented with 2 arrows going different directions) to invert them would speed up this tedious task.

    Thank you
