Country Lass

I have now found them, can anyone tell me how to apply them to a photo? It read very easily on the info page of the purchase

I downloaded through the My Account function but cannot find the brushes

I have just purchased the Smoke and Cloud brushes which I have downloaded successfully. However I cannot find where they are in Affinity Photo, please could you help me?

Thank you so very much for all your help I really appreciate your swift response.

I apologise as I am not very up on technical things! So, just so I am clear (and since deselecting this seems to have fixed my current problem with the crashing) when I download the next update will I have to select the hardware acceleration box again or just leave it alone as it is now as deselected?

It asked me to restart which I have done and so just trying it now. Can you explain what it is that deselecting this does?

That icon was ticked so I have unticked that now

So, I am using Windows and up until the recent update of 1.9 everything was fine. The program loads ok but when using certain filters eg depth of field filter in particular, I get so far then the program just shuts down

Can anyone help on this?

I have just downloaded the update of 1.9 Affinity Photo and each time I am trying to edit photographs the program just closes itself down. Please advise?

I am somewhat confused about cropping and saving an image - so here goes.... I photograph wildlife, birds and insects in particular. My aim is to crop my raw file which I am currently doing in unconstrained mode - great all well so far. When I have done this I am noticing that the pixel size in my image has dropped. When I have completed my editing and ready for exporting the image as a JPEG to save it - I have learnt from research that to obtain a good quality 10x8 print I need to be saving images at 3550x2550 pixels - ok so when I save the image I also type this number in the export box and also select best quality. So - because I dont really understand the pixel side of things - can you please advise if it is ok to export at this value when the cropped image pixel size had dropped below this value? Hope this makes sense! Very desperate for an answer
