I'm encountering this same situation...has there been any updates to flipping JUST your selection on a layer, without having to duplicate the layer first, etc..?

Is there opacity control yet? I was looking around in the newest version 2.5.7...couldn't find it.

Just wanted to report the same thing is happening to me in the latest version of Affinity Photo. I thought my printer was broken. I kept trying to print a 4x6" photo with certain settings (both borderless and normal printing). Sometimes it would work, sometimes it wouldn't. It ended up just not working at all. I decided to try printing from Photoshop....no problems whatsoever! Has anyone else had this issue and any solutions come up? I'm trying to convert over fully to Affinity from Photoshop.

Another vote from me for being able to limit the selection to the active artboard. The only way I seem to be able to get around this is to copy the artboard I want to work on and put it in a new document. I could definitely see how being able to BOTH, select all of a type from the entire document, or limit it to artboard/group/etc could be very useful! Please put this feature in a future update Affinity! :)

Yes, please update them to remember what layers are on/off! This is what I primarily use Layer Comps for in Photoshop, it's a major part of my workflow.

Yes it would be great if there was a "sculpt" mode, where an existing object could be selected, then with your brush you can push and move around the nodes with a fall off radius. Basically similtar to a Liquify but for vectors, and different settings to control the fall off.

Another vote for this feature! Would be so helpful!

Another vote for this! I use the "Auto Select Layer" feature in Photoshop all the time, I turn it on and off as necessary. It's extremely useful!

I would love this too! Easily switching between, updating, and using Layer Comps in Photoshop is an integral part of my workflow. I use it so often, along with exporting "laying comps to files". I honestly need the feature..so if Affinity Photo gets it, I'll probably be making the switch!
