Dear Affinity team, When working with 32bit (HDR) RGB Images, the circular sliders in the HSL Adjustment Layer don't have any effect. In the attached document try the following: - after opening you should see a hue gradient with the green area darkened down - open the settings of the hsl adjustment layer - go to the green color settings (the green dot) - the 4 circular dots in the ui indicate that the black area should be wider - playing around with these dots has no effect on the result They do work however in 8 and 16bit (int) mode. They also work when the hsl layer is set to HSV. (however HSV produces different results overall) I hope that's an easy fix My system config: - MacBook Pro from Jan2023 with Ventura 13.6 - affinity Photo in latest public release - no special hard and software - hw acceleartion on Thanks a lot! All the Best, Rob HSL_CircularSliders_32bit_BUG.v1.afphoto

Hello everybody, the following error already occurs since version 1.x of Affinity Photo and was already described in the respective forum and declared as a bug. When applying an HSL adjustment layer to a 32-bit RGB file, the hue selection does not work correctly. The bug can be reproduced. I am running Affinity Photo 2.0.3 on Windows 10 Pro x64 22H2. Hardware acceleration is active, but the error occurs even if it is disabled. The following step-by-step guide can be used to reproduce the bug and for details about it. The screenshots are from version 1.x of Affinity Photo, but the procedure is the same for version 2.x as well. Start Affinity Photo. Go to "File" --> "New...". Create a new file with the following properties: Place a new image (from file) by going to "File" --> "Place..." on the background. Add a HSL layer. The work area should look like this: Now open the HSL adjustment layer and pick one of the six predefined colors. Since I want to change the red and yellow colors I pick the red dot. Now decrease the saturation to 0 %. First of all, it seems everythings works fine: Now drag the four color dots to another color like blue. The expected behaviour would be that the red colors get saturated again and the blue colors get gray. Since there are no blue colors in the picture the picture should look like the original again. But what is happing actually is, that the red colors are still unsaturated and although the outer ring of the color wheels shows gray "blue" colors nothing has happend in the picture: It does not change anything if you try to use the "Pipette" instead of draging the four dots. When working with an 8 or 16 bit RGB file, the HSL adjustment layer works just fine and as expected. The original posted bug was found on MacOS. I guess the MacOS version is still affected. Feel free to ask me for more information. I hope my findings provide some information on how to deal with this issue and find a solution to it for me, as well.

Hi, In Version 1.9.1 on macOS, the color picker in the HSL adjustment layer isn't working. I'm selecting the blue tone and use the color picker and select a red pixel in the image. The color of the selected colour changes and also in the color ring, the right tone is selected. However, if I am changing the saturation, it affects the blue color in the image. This behavior is consistent for all six color buttons. See attachment for example. Notice: it is RGB32 HDR! Björn Bildschirmvideo aufnehmen 2021-03-26 um 12.58.38.mov

Hi all, when I use the HSL adjustment I can't control what range of colors i'm affecting it. This worked before but now, if I change the range doesn't update. HSL Bug AP.mp4
