  1. I have been trying to get astro stacking to work. The crash happens at different steps in the process. I have not been able to identify a consistent crash sequence. So, here are steps that I've done that have led to a crash (multiple examples). Specs: windows 10 version 1.9.2.1035. Also, when I say crash, I mean the app literally crashes and is no longer running. When I open affinity photo again, there is no partially saved document (if that's a feature for the astro stack, which I am not sure of) to restore. First 4 crashes: New astro stack Add Files for Lights. I selected 15 .arw (sony raw) image files. (These opened and appeared fine, except they were shot vertically and were displayed horizontally--in case that matters). Add Files for Dark: I select 1 dark file, upon confirming my file selection the app crashed. Next Few Crashes: 3. I was able to complete the selecting of a Dark file. 4. I press Stack and almost immediately crashes--I do not believe a progress bar had time to pop up. Next crash: New astro stack Add Files for Lights. I selected 5 .arw files. I selected the Dark file I press stack (it works this time) I press apply. I'm taken to the photo persona with 1 image pixel layer and 2 adjustment layers. I toggle the adjustment layers to see how they affect the image. AND IT CRASHES. I REBOOT MY MACHINE. Next Crash: New astro stack Add Files for Lights. I selected 5 .arw files. I selected the Dark file and it crashes Next 2 crashes: New astro stack Add Files for Lights. I selected 2 .arw files. I try to click on each image to ensure it's loaded. When I click on the second image IT CRASHES. So, I have not been able to successfully use this feature, which I was looking forward to. It seems many suffer this same problem. I am posting in hopes my "crash reports" can help. dark.ARW light-2.ARW light-1.ARW
  2. Hi, I have downloaded the new 1.7.0 version and followed by 1.7.1. The performance is a disaster and a real workstopper. Drawing something with any Brush tool is the worse I have encounter anytime (no matter if Healing, Brush or Clone....). I have a new top series NTB and Wacom Pro..... but I feel like working with old 486 PC :( I have been using AP for about the time of the first official release, but never saw anything like this :( This had not been a case of 1.6. version that one worked fine for me, but now I do draw something on Wacom and have to wait around 2 to 5 seconds till I see it on the screen, which makes any realtime drawing impossible I have tried restarting many times..... sometimes it works most time not...... It does not seem to be problem of Wacom as it looks the same working with touchpad or a mouse. Do not tell me I am the only one with this problem...... Please let me now ASAP as I am a professional and this makes my job unable...... Thanks Jindra
  3. I'm exporting my vector graphic as an svg. When I open the svg in Firefox or Google Chrome most of the colour is missing. I think all the missing colour is the gradients My SVG is filled with stuff like fill:url(#_Radial2) but I can't find anywhere in the file where #_Radial2 specifies a colour Unchecking "flattern transforms", "use hex colours", or use "relative coordinates" had no effect --------------- I uploaded screenshots of my export settings, as well as what the SVG looks like in a browser, and also the SVG file itself trombone.svg
  4. With metal hardware acceleration activated on an Apple Silicon Mac with Retina display, using a masked gradation curve inside a layer containing transparent areas, the transparency seems to be reduced on parts of that layer, even if the gradation curves mask doesn't should alter anything in that area. This problem only appears, if an image is present in the background. Without having a background image, the wrong transparency alteration does not happen. This seems to be a bug in metal hardware acceleration, because deactivating it solves the problem.
  5. So run into this problem where the head and tail offsets for a brush don’t seem to work for closed shapes (broken since 2017 btw). Outside of converting to curves and breaking the line, which creates other issues, the only way I see to fix this is to modify the brush texture image so there are no gaps on the ends and making the endpoints so they can be tiled. The question is, how do I export a textured brush’s source image (like from the default brushes) so that I can modify the the texture so there’s no gaps - since it seems that in 3 years Serif hasn’t bothered to fix this.
  6. A few issues I have seen in this version and the previous: 1. Backspace doesn't backspace. It just returns to the previously used paragraph style. 2. Text seems to randomly resize itself. Example attached. When I finally resized the text on the left, the text on the right resized itself. Suggestions for improvements: 1. On the pages panel, maybe consider using the pages numbers of the book, and not the project, Eg : the document might say page11, but the book page numbering is only on page 5. 2. In the section manager, take away 'Section 1, Section 2,' etc. naming. It can be confusing when the book has chapters. 3. Please create an 'Indesign book' like workflow. It makes working on chapters MUCH easier.
  7. Hi, I can't assign my hotkeys in Designer, I'm using the most current version 1.9.2.1035, the problem has been reported some times before in the forum since 2016. This is a problem that I only encounter on Designer, in the Windows version. Hope you can fix it since shortcuts are essential for professional workflow. In other subject, I would like to know if there's a way to know what is the currently brush selected. I've switch to other apps to paint because is easier to organize my brushes and actually know what is the brush that is being used since once you change the default it just keeps that configuration and would like to know what tipbrush I'm using and avoid losing the config in case I want to switch it for other one. Cheers.
  8. Hi, I am working on an iMac running Big Sur version 11.3.1 with the Affinity Photo Desktop version 1.9.3 and am having a problem with Focus Merge. I ran a few different Focus Merges on RAW image files earlier today with no problems. Then I ran a focus merge of 35 raw images of 43MB each and this time I am getting a blur on the left side and bottom of the output composite. When I look at the source files (where the left side of the original image is in focus) the source images show a weird corruption of the left and bottom edges just where the composite is blurred. There is nothing wrong in the original RAW image files that I used to generate the Focus Merge so the problem is created during the Focus Merge process. I have tried this particular Focus Merge (quitting AF in between trials and selecting the same RAW images) now 3 different times with the same result. I will include 3 screen grabs to illustrate the issue: one of one of the original RAW images I used, opened in Affinity Photo to show that there is nothing wrong with the file - one of the output of the Focus Merge showing the composite with blurred edges - and the last revealing one of the source images with the strange corruption. I hope you can fix whatever bug caused this problem. Many thanks, Sandi PS - out of curiosity, once I had the Focus Merge output, I wanted to open one of the original image files in Affinity Photo in a second tab to see that that file was fine but once I did, clicking back on the tab where the Focus Merge output was, I lost access to the panel with the source images. I could not find out how to bring that window of the source images back.
  9. First of, stating the obvious, everything was working right until the latest update on March 5th. Running an Acer 5 laptop. 16 gb of RAM, i7, 7th generation CPU, 1050ti GPU. Here's what my image is supposed to look like. Then I try to export it as any image file. JPEG, PNG, etc. I also tried with the Export persona. I tried by fusing all the visible layers into a single pixelated one. Regardless, it turns into this corrupted mess. And every time I do it, the corrupted bits are placed differently. I've tried a couple documents with the same background elements, still does it. I tried copying the layers into a new document, still does it. HOWEVER, I've opened the Photo file into Affinity Designer, and exported it from there, and there was no corruption at all. So at least I've got this temporary fix. Here's what my background layers look like. They have various layer effects and transparency, nothing out of the ordinary. Has anyone experienced a similar bug? Have you fixed it? Is the Affinity team aware of its existence? Is it just me? 😂 Thanks in advance for the help, and I'll give any other details you guys may ask for.
  10. Since one of the most recent updates there is a lot of unnecessary low-res rendering going on when Affinity Designer vector objects are copied. Earlier, some of these issues could be fixed by pasting into Preview and copying from there but now there is no fix other than exporting to a bitmap. Please fix soon, this is incredibly annoying.
  11. https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/77178-vectors-not-preserved-in-several-export-formats/ I have the same issue... trying to export my logo as vector but, it doesn't work... tried to expand and substract but the button is greyed... It is only vectors... If someone can help, it would be appreciated Varsity.afdesign
  12. Is there a reason that this happens at the end of a stroke when using the (Vector) Pencil Tool with tablet pressure in Designer? I often use the Pencil Tool because it's fully vector and super straight forward - no textures, clean look, and always has the option to expand strokes. But I've been noticing these weird ends where they should just be a round edge like the examples I made using the Pen Tool with pressure profiles (on the right). When I expand the strokes made with the Pencil Tool those weird edges actually expand too, leaving me with a bunch of messy stroke ends that are baked into the curve. Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?
  13. I make some projects on Affinity Designer and worked very well. Now i can't save or export in any format and after try save or export i can't select any layer of the project like the archive is "corrupted" or something. When i try to export, the archive is not created and any massage of error show on screen. I tried to restart the PC and Reinstall the program but nothing seems to solve this problem...
  14. I created a custom brush using New Brush from Selection. It's fine if i paint on a regular pixel layer but if I use it on a mask, it paints as a block with the shape inside, almost like it's been inverted. Steps I used to create the brush: Create a new pixel layer Create an outline with the freehand lasso Fill selection with black Brush Panel > New Brush from Selection (both with an active selection and without) Edited brush dynamics (also tried without editing) AP: 1.9.3 Mac:
  15. hi all , can someone plz let me know why my healing tool is getting black every time??! if i hold some some time it will get darker and darker and when release it turns black ! also i set my brush to 100% hardness but still im getting soft/halo effect every time ! is it a BUG or ...? (mac air m1 chip, ios 11.2.3 affinity photo latest version) i did reinstall but same issue ... thank you
  16. Locked pixel layer at the bottom of layer hierarchy is selectable by clicking or dragging. If it's not at the bottom, it's not selectable.
  17. Very odd bug... The first part you can see my mouse draw the wiggle... Then I try with my WACOM Intuos 5 Tablet... I've gone through the settings and tried to find anything... Turned off the two monitors etc... cannot figure it out... The tablet worked perfectly with Photoshop, and I tried it with other programs just now and they all work fine too... Any help would be stellar... Cheers! 2021-04-13_16-44-46.mp4
  18. I'm trying to make a drop shadow for a rounded square In affinity designer on ipad when I toggle the Outer shadow in FX not much happens. It does get a tiiiiiny edge but there are no editing options . I though the options would show up in the bottom? but this is all I see
  19. When exporting vector graphics to PNG and JPG from Affinity Designer, better anti-aliasing of the contours would be appropriate. The contours do not look as smooth as when exported from Adobe Illustrator. Zoom 100%.
  20. Windows 10 All updates installed Affinity photo version 1.9.2 Zenbook UX482 with latest drivers Affinity crashes while drawing with pencil tool. Happens often like three times in hour. Just simple sketching nothing more. If affinity dumps logs during crash please inform me where I will add them to post.
  21. I have a document (attached) which is a simple (but random) collection of small rectangles with total of 4 grays. Using the fill bucket (6%, not contiguous) it will never complete (or at least nothing for several minutes before force quitting). I have filled far more complex and larger images with widely spread out areas of same color without issue. This image does not work. Your fill algorithm is clearly suffering from degenerate edge cases. I tried several cases (1) starting from 75x75 image I resized to 6000x6000 with nearest neighbor (2) saved that image first and restarted the app. Both cases repeatedly result in the same behavior. I also used the original 75x75 image which supports fills without issue. The report based on the first instance of killing the app was sent to Apple so you should be able to see it. Also selection (Magic Wand) has the same issue - endless beachball. If I start from the source image, a 4500x4500 noise image of rectangles from which the 75x75 image was taken, fill works correctly and instantly. Perhaps something in creating the attached document is broken. Mac 11.2.3, AP 1.9.2, iMac 5K, 16GB, Radeon Pro 580 8 GB wip4.afphoto
  22. Hi. Something strange happens to me with affinity photo, which doesn't happen to me in any other artistic program, or not. The problem is that the background, flickers or changes color, becoming a little darker or lighter with certain actions (it is possible that even the canvas does, but where it really shows is in the background), I would say that what does is darken for half a second and then regain normal lighting.It happens in two ways. The first is done randomly when I press the alt, control, or shift modifier keys. The other, always happens in the same way, and it is curious because it does so depending on the tool you have selected. It occurs in two cases when it does. The first, when you move the cursor from the canvas to the background or from the background to the canvas. This only happens with the following selected tools: brush tool, mix brush tool, rubber tool, overexposure brush, all blur tools, except the finger tool. The second case occurs when you go from the background to the toolbar but not when you go to the canvas. This occurs with the following tools. Gradient tool, pen tool, geometric shapes tool and text tool. The color variation is not much, I did not notice it on my external monitor, until I changed the configuration to one with high light (presentation on my Benq monitor), but with this configuration it is very remarkable. I also could not make a video for a curious reason. As soon as I open OBS studio (my recording program), this flickering stops happening. I don't even have to record, just by opening the program this problem stops happening. In this designer forum they talk about something that seems similar . I have verified that changing to WARP as it is said there the problem stops happening, but unfortunately the brushes become unusable due to their slowness, since Intel UHD 620 is the option that my card should use. My computer. HP Notebook, 16g ram, I7, Intel UHD 620 integrated graphics card. I use windows 10. Hope this problem can be solved. Thank you very much for your attention and greetings.
  23. If you use a layer with an object that has transparent pixels on the layer, like copied areas, then add a layer effect (fx) like gaussian blur, or another one, and then blend range do not work. If you reduce the layer effect to 0 % then the Blend range is active. When you change to only 1% the lend range is deactivated. Regrads erdi12
  24. Hi, I have Affinity 1.9.7 running on iPad Pro 9.7” and the top left menus (arrow back, document and ...) are very unresponsive to touch. I have to press many times to be able to open them. Is this known? Any solution? thank you
