  1. We are pleased to announce an update for the Windows release of Affinity Photo, version 1.9.1 The changes in Affinity Photo for Windows 1.9.1 (made since the last release Affinity Photo for Windows 1.9.0) are as follows: Fixes & Improvements: Fixed Crashes and errors when using the My Account option Fixed crash at start-up due to broken OpenCL drivers ( potential startup crashes are detected, and hardware acceleration is prevented.) Disabled hardware acceleration for AMD Radeon RX 5000 series and later cards (awaiting response to bug filed with AMD) Fixed asset dragging performance for some assets Fixed some documents failing to load (hanging) Fixed JPEG and TIFF filter descriptions (was "Affinity Files") Fixed performance problems when Paragraph Panel was visible Fixed the inability to save some files originally opened as read only Updated image metadata parsing Updated lens data (see here) Fixed hardware acceleration performance and quality for: Patch Tool, Shadows & Highlights, Healing Brush, Channel Mixer, Focus Merge, Remove Lens Vignette (Develop Persona), Shear Filter, Posterise Liquify Turbulence Tool, Haze Removal Filter, Panorama Improved content syncing Fixed scaled text frame increasing text size when grouped Added .fts extension support Improved Astrophotography to detect bad pixels before inspecting light frames Improved Astrophotography to use the bad pixel map, if any, when loading images for alignment.

  5. Hi, I'm macOs user and the performance of the application sometimes becomes slow, I have an Intel graphics card of 6000 and 8 gb of ram I would like that in the person tab you can include a raw editor easier to use and more complete with radial filter, I have to use adjustment layers to edit and is a very slow and annoying process, thank you
  6. Please, you could add a hint/tooltip to the "+" button to see what it causes (that will add current/entered settings to My Presets). Of course it would be good for all other items as well. Thank you Edit:
  7. Hi. Disaster release 1.9 contains another bug: Select a layer (inside a group) in a layer stack, have an object in clipboard, click Insert at the top of the layer button, it gets highlighted, but on paste the object appears at the top of the layer stack. It worked flawlessly in all other previous releases I can think of since like version 1.5. Same goes when the same button is selected and one clicks New Layer icon.
  8. Hello. I searched for delayed typing and couldn't see any other postings in 3 pages. I'm just starting to learn Publisher and I noticed that when I type there is a large delay in the text coming out and I can't record with OBS to show. I have to type and wait for the letters to display for about 3 to 5 seconds after I type them. I only have been doing a few words at a time with the delay and it is severely slowing me down. My document isn't complicated and I only have a single image. I have to wait about five seconds for this to finish typing itself out: "This sentence takes about five seconds to fill in after I stop typing." I noticed that Publisher and Photo use a very large percent of CPU even when they were both minimized and hadn't been used in a few minutes, and Publisher was the same once when I had it open but wasn't interacting with it. I should have plenty of horsepower, and haven't installed any fonts yet. Thank you for your help. System: Dell XPS 15 9570, Windows 10 Pro v10.0.17134 Build 17134, Core i& 8750H, 32GB RAM
  9. Hi, I'm getting confused how Affinity Photo handles "Color Formats" like RGB8, RGB16, RGB32. Question 1: How many colors are displayed for and RGB8 Color Format? To test how many colors are visible, i created a very simple test document: Create new 3840x2160 document with RGB8 and P3 profile Create a procedural text filter which creates the smoothest possible gradient from black to white. This will create steps of 1/3840 create a second procedural text filter which creates steps of 1 /256 (and is adjustable by the slides for later steps) Now the fun part begins. If you disable / enable the top layer you will see visible changes - meaning Photo will display a gradient with smaller steps than possible in 8 bit. Changing the blend mode of the top layer to "difference" will confirm both layers are different. This is a surprise for me. You may need a levels adjustment to emphasize the difference. Actually it seems like Photo is rendering a much higher color channel depth than 8 bit - even if the pixel layer is restricted to 8 bit. Is there a good explanation for this observation? My assumption is that RGB8 layers are strictly limited to 8 bit depth for each color channel, and only 256 different gray scales are possible. But the observations above prove it wrong.
  10. I am trying to make this layer consistent for all angles with the 3D layer effect. Notice the outer obtuse angles (right) go inward on a straight line, but the inner acute angles (left) are rounded. I want them to be straight lines as well. I have adjusted the layer effect in every way I can see and have made a custom profile but as far as I can tell the 3D effect does the same thing to any acute angles on a layer. Is there a way to make all angles go in at a straight line?

  13. Down loaded latest version for windows yesterday 4th Feb 21, working on photo and whole system keeps shutting down off current workload while editing photos. reopen and lost selection of open files. Has now done it four time.
  14. Can we please have the option of these buttons for PHOTO? They are in DESIGNER as in the picture attached. They are would be most useful in photo as well. Thank you Gary
  15. The 1.9 upgrades look fantastic. Question. After registration you can download some of the free packs, like the snow in PHOTO. Where are they downloaded to? no path showing. Can you change the path? I don't have my affinity software on my C drive. Just the OS, so I would like to choose where they go and know where they are. Right now i can't even find them. Gary
  16. Good moring. Since version 1.9 I cannot export to .jpg formats anymore. Does anybody have the same experience?
  17. Hi all. When I updated designer from 1.8.5 to 19.0.932, after loading I see only startup screen with name and version of product. I updated intel drivers (620), .NET Framework is 4.8 version (latest), C++ redistibutable 2019. Windows 10 64bit. i5-7200 graphics 620 NVIDIA 940MX With version 1.8.5 I have no problems. I greet everyone.
  18. Hi from Austria I have the same problem with the focus merge function since updating to 1.9, like Freixas and Hank Schoch --> forum.affinity - All focus stacks are the same: the bottom fourth of the screen is black. Will our problem be solved soon? When? I bought the app on 08.08.2020 and I use Windows 10 Thanks a lot. Jolanta P.
  19. I have two objects in a document (below), a green rectangle and a pink ellipse. And I have a document palette. If I right-click on the pink ellipse and choose Add to Swatches > From Fill as Global, the color is added to the document palette. However, if I right-click on the green rectangle and choose Add to Swatches > From Fill as Global, the color is not added to the document palette. Why not? I can right-click on the green rectangle and choose Add to Swatches > From Fill, and it is added to the document palette. I can then right-click on that swatch and choose Make Global, and it becomes Global. Why can't I add it directly? (In case it matters, the two objects were created from Assets. The assets are also embedded in the document. I don't remember doing anything special or odd when creating the assets, but I don't really remember how I created them a few weeks ago.)

  20. 'Export' from Photo - png and gifs are fine, but jpgs only want to 'save as' affinity files. Same problem with Designer.
  21. I thought I had downloaded the programmes last night, and received an email with Product Keys. However, if I click on the programs which I expected would launch them, I get a message from Windows to download more safely through their Store. This doesn't seem to offer a Free Trial, just an outright purchase. How do I proceed from here, please?
  22. Hello Affinity Team, GREAT UPDATE! Request! ( for all the programs , designer, photo, and publisher ) when i downloading content from the account window, I and probably other really need the option to where its downloaded to. My C drive is OS only. I have all my programs and content on D drive. I need the ability to save or move these downloads off my C drive as there is limited space for the OS only. Is there a way now to move them and re add the assests manually? Perhaps a option for downloads later release? Gary
  23. Contour Clone with ALT not working Is there something wrong with THE CONTOUR TOOL? It says holding down ALT will clone it , it doesn't? Thank you Gary
  24. I've been using Affinity Photo more lately and there are a few things I'm still trying to figure out. One thing I use often in Photoshop is the crop to pixels feature, you just make a selection and click the crop tool, the crop tool then automatically snaps to the outer most pixels around the selection then you just apply the crop for a pixel-perfect alignment. I have tried this in Affinity Photo as well as manually cropping and it doesn't seem to be able to do this. In some cases it's easy enough to manually crop, but this is not ideal for anything with semi-opaque pixels or glowing effects where clipping may occur if it is not cropped accurately. Is there a way to do this in Affinity Photo?
  25. Hi, i got a corrupted file while using the patch tool. The file is private, if you can provide a private upload link i can share it with affinity staff only. Used 5 TIF files with perspective filter and masks used a pixel layer atop for final tweaking with patch tool when the beta stumbled. Luccily, a have a stored version before and after the crash. As soon as i swicth from pacth tool to hand/move tool the file ets corrupted.
