Hi MartinF, Welcome to the forums Could you please confirm, are you using Serif Labs RAW engine or Apple Core? Both are compatible with your camera, but the issue may be isolated to one and not both. I've seen something similar to this before (see thread below), and this problem was only occasional. Could you please try closing the RAW development and opening the image again? Does it appear correctly?

Hi LinkLayer I'm sorry to hear this, it certainly isn't something I've heard of before. Could you please upload some sample JPEGs (10-15 would be perfect) and the macro that you're running to the following link? This will allow me to look into this for you! https://www.dropbox.com/request/2EBRoejpuetmfTgT7rgs

Export .afdesign Files
Dan C replied to Goosekeeper's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on iPad Questions
Hi Goosekeeper If you have an iCloud account shared between the two iPads, you could open Affinity Designers settings on the iPad that contains all of your work, and change the Default Save Location to iCloud. Then, select the three tiered menu option next to each open document on your iPad and select Save. This will save each file as an .afdesign file directly to your iCloud, if they are all called 'untitled' then each time you save another it should incrementally add a number to the end of each document, as to not overwrite the last. If your files are already named, the name should not be changed through this procedure. You can now go to your new iPad and import all of your work from the cloud, using the + icon on the homescreen. I hope this helps! -

Hi Alinoyan, Welcome to the forums I believe they did, with the following sentence but I may be incorrect. The answer, if you are using Windows, is that Affinity scales with Windows desktop scaling only currently, and doesn't have a built in option to enlarge the UI, my apologies. You can change a few things, like the tool handle size under Edit>Preferences>Tools, but the overall UI scaling is takes from the Windows provided percentage.

Converting a dash into individual strokes.
Dan C replied to Doc Ricky's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on iPad Questions
Hi Doc Ricky, Welcome to the forums The best way to do this is to select the curve, go to the three dot menu at the top left and select Expand Stroke, then without removing your selection, go to the same menu and select Divide under Geometry. This will create multiple 'curve' objects, one for each dash. Hope this helps!- 6 replies

Hi Kbock There's no way to swap this currently, apologies. I'll move this thread to Feature Requests for our devs to see and consider adding an option in the future!- 3 replies

designer brushes
Dan C replied to ydaltak's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Hi ydaltak Unfortunately this isn't currently possible, your idea of naming the Pixel layers certainly sounds like a good workaround! -
Hi organicspot Unfortunately this isn't currently possible, I'll move this thread to our Feature Requests section of the forums for our devs to consider adding in the future!

Hi Brunswick83, Welcome to the forums Unfortunately the Apple Core RAW engine is only available on Apple PCs. We update our RAW support as often as possible, and I certainly hope the G9 will be included in our supported list for Serif Labs, however I cannot make any guarantees of this, or offer a time-frame currently, my sincerest apologies.

Hi JeffreyMontgomery, Welcome to the forums We update Affinity as often as possible, with the small incremental updates (such as 1.6.1 to 1.6.2) being mainly bug fixes, and larger updates (such as 1.6 to 1.7) being feature changes or additions, along with bug fixes etc. We don't have an update schedule or estimated dates for when these updates are available, we simply release them when ready. Perhaps keep an eye on our beta forums (we aren't running any currently, but hopefully soon) to see what may be included in future updates! https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/forum/60-affinity-designer-beta-forums/ If you have an update available, you can see the change list below: Win - Mac -

Hi Welcome to the forums! Firstly, I recommend changing your username from your email address, as this is a public forum and it may be used maliciously. Secondly, Affinity licenses are non-transferable, meaning if you now require a Mac license you will need to purchase the software again, my apologies.

iPad - Copy and Paste setting
Dan C replied to Roshin's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on iPad Questions
Hi Roshin, Welcome to the forums It certainly does, please watch the quick video below to see this in action! cpadjustment.mp4 You can use Macros in Affinity Photo for iPad to apply a preset of changes to an image, however you can't currently record these on the iOS version of Affinity, so you will have to create them in the desktop version and import them in. -
Exporting to PSD
Dan C replied to Steveporter's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Hi Steveporter We've seen this issue before in Procreate (See below thread) and I imagine they are related, I'll update our developer report to include Quark Xpress. Could you please confirm your PSD export settings? Unfortunately there's no workaround for opening PSD files into other 3rd party apps currently, so you may need to use PDF files, my apologies for any inconveniences caused. -
Opacity Pressure Control
Dan C replied to Daniel Aubert's topic in Feedback for Affinity Photo V1 on Desktop
Hi Daniel Aubert, Welcome to the forums We recommend trying Flow Jitter at 100% set to pressure and Accumulation Jitter between 30%-50%, to closely mimic PS opacity on pressure! -
Colouring Layers
Dan C replied to saraheagle's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Hi saraheagle! At the moment, only the colour of the layer can be changed, it's been requested previously to have a thicker line option so that these colours are more obvious, I'll update the improvement report with your comments In the meantime, I'd recommend using a bolder or brighter colour, as this may 'jump out' a little more at a glance! -
Thanks for your files, I've looked through and most of this is to be expected. When developing images into 32bit we expect the file size to be much larger, and as mikerofoto has mentioned converting the file to 8bit and deleting the snapshot will reduce the file-size drastically. I developed your Basics image into 16bit without making changes and saved the file at 217MB. I then converted the file and deleted the snapshot and saved it as a new file at 54.3MB. I'd recommend reading the following thread, as our developers went into great detail regarding our proprietary file size
