borris effects has a lot of film styles BUT it is expensive and wont work as a plug in with Affinity

is this any help Have you red the PDF manual? https://www.on1.com/videos/on1-effects-2023-user-guide/

This mini series has some good info https://scottdavenportphoto.com/on1-effects his website has a very good selection of on1 masking and how to do stuff

You could always ask here https://on1help.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

there has been issues when out of date graphics drivers are used. have a search on1 raw facebook page Good luck, its worth it.

Free and perpetual licence. This plus Affinity Photo is a great combination. If you use the stand alone version you get to use layers, crop etc On1 has a lot of instructional videos and there is stuff on Youtube.

Another demo

Yes. Free until end of the month AI masking and a lot more. Does a good job in masking and all masks can be refined. https://scottdavenportphoto.com/blog/mask-objects-with-the-refine-brush-on1-photo-raw-2023

This thread has info

The touch up tools with the free ,until 31 Jan, On1 Effects might help you https://www.on1.com/products/effects/ There might be problems with it auto installing into V2 but you can always do a manual install.

It does bring LUT previews and AI masking into AP workflow. As for the UI it aint perfect and could do with dockable panels like AP, but to each his own, horses for courses etc.

From On1 forum My first thought is that the installer doesn't recognize the newer version of Affinity Photo so it couldn't install the plug-ins. It was looking for V1 and couldn't find it. Just a guess. If you go to the ON1 Effects 2023 folder you'll see a Plug-in Files folder and in it are the actual plug-in files. You should be able to install it manually by putting a COPY of the correct on into the proper AP plug-ins folder. NOTE: This doesn't mean it will work. You'll have to try it and see.

Another thought, Is V1 still installed? And is the plugin installed there?

I have installed this with no issues. This was on V1 Affinity photo.Did Sreng pagna have the option "allow unknown plugins" ticked?

As an On1 user I can say that the sky replacement works very well (usually) The Effects plugin will give AI selection options too

So I could.

Does V2? I might consider buying if it does. It only claims to be an Adobe plugin but I can use it with no issues from On1photoRAW.

Sorry cant post in the V1 Forum I have installed and run plugins for Photo Topaz Sharpen,De noise, some old Nik Effects and Gmic. Affinity Photo sees the plugin but it will not run. I get a "Channel Ports not available" message and then Affinity hangs and I need to go to Task Manager. Is there a work around or solution? Thanks in advance

Sort of related, I use on1 photoRAW and would like the ability for Affinity Photo to send files to other app after export. I send a file to Affinity from the file menu in on1 as a .psd and get Affinity to save over the file after saving. I still have to manually reload the file into On1 after the edit as a layer.

I think the price for On1 PhotoRAW is about £85 for a new customer after a 20% discount available from a lot of youtube content creators. It might seem expensive but you get a lot of tools with it and a 30 day money back deal Look for Scott Davenport on Youtube.

I think that AF is a pixel editor like photoshop, sounds like you need a raw processor like Capture 1 Lightroom or ON1photoraw.

It would be nice if it imported as a new layer, but I tend to do most of my editing in On1PhotoRAW so I save the Nik edit as a PSD.

On1 effects can do a lot of things and make vignette and borders really quick and easy. Free to try for 14 days and a 30 day money back guarantee, look here for more info. https://scottdavenportphoto.com/on1-effects

This a video on how to get On1 and Affinity playing nicely

It isnt perfect, but it works well as a plugin or using On1photoRAW in conjunction with Affinity Photo. It can work like a Lightroom/Photoshop set up.
