Please unify the function and control of Flood tools. Flood Fill Tool: (why doesn't Blend Mode label like Tolerance and Source?) Flood Select Tool: I understand that the Mode is important for the Select Tool and therefore comes first - but why isn't the order of the other controls the same as the Flood Fill Tool? Why is the Source before the Tolerance, and in the Fill tool is at the end? Flood Erase Tool: Why Erase doesn't have Contiguous and Antialias options? I understand that it is possible to use the Flood Select Tool and then press Delete, but if the Erase function is already there, why can't it have the same options and thus the same function? Thank you.

Hi there, I'm running the latest AP 1.10.1 and noticed a glitch when using the erase tool. 1. normal settings for erase tool = good performance. 2. using the stabilizer with the erase tool causes weird performance issues ( see attached) 3. once these weird performance issues show up then the history undo function doesn't appear to work. 4. Help 5. Thanks for your help. I am using an 2 year old iMac with lots of Ram ... Greg CJ

I'm testing the Affinity Photo Trial and when I use the erase tool it stays a grey mesh background, how can have a clean background?

I am still learning this app. I have a gif file, I created a new pixel layer from the background and am trying to use the erase tool. I have the circle showing but it does nothing. afaics I do the same thing on a png or jpg and it erases as I expect. Does it not work with gif?

Day before yesterday I was able to open a JPEG and then go to Pixel Persona, then Erase Brush Tool, and then use the tool and pixels were easily enlarged and removed with the erase. This tool is not working. Please help. Is there someone I could speak to verbally. I have good computer skills and can be walked through the issue I'm sure. I've also tried to use the Pen tool to mark the outline of the object and it doesn't seem to work properly for me either. I suspect I have some tool enabled or disabled that needs to be reset. I've reviewed many Vimeo and YouTube tutorials I did see where I found I could use rasterize assistance and easily trace around the object I'm trying to crop (remove the background) and then I cannot figure out how to eliminate the background or make it 'clear'. If you have a link to a tutorial that would walk me through these issues, as listed above, then I'm happy to try those too. Do you have a telephone help line? I promise not to misuse it. As you can see I've been trying to resolve this for two days on my own. The instructions you sent did allow me to see pixels, however the Erase Brush Tool is doing nothing to my JPEG. Do I need Affinity Photo to make this process easier? Thank you, Becky
