Thank you so much for taking the time to reply to me I really appreciate it. Please find attached my attempt to copy your yellow lines mp4 ... Maybe you could have a look at what I'm doing wrong as it has made no difference to what I had tried before and looks nothing like your very good instructional video Thanks again for your help al Yellow_Lines.mp4

Can anyone help me. I am a new user to the software but am experiencing some technical issues. I am running Affinity version 1.64.104 on Windows 10 fully updated. However a number of the tools on the left panel panel don't seem to be working in particular the selection brush tool. Additionally having paid for the Affinity photo for beginners course I have been following through on some of the exercises. I have been trying to use the paint brush painting in black to reveal colour having applied a black & white adjustment to a photo. Instead of revealing colour its painting/revealing light green instead of the base colour which is yellow, I have attached a screen shot. Apologies if this is a stupid query but I've tried everything thanks alan
