Nev Mac Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 I am used to seeing Before on the left side of a split (preview) screen and After on the right. Is the a way to change to this layout in Affinity Photo Ron P. 1
Dan C Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 Hi Nev Mac, Welcome to the forums Unfortunately there's no way to change the order of Split Preview in Affinity apps currently, my apologies. I'll move this thread to our Feedback section of the forums for our devs to see and consider!

Is the a way to change to this layout in Affinity Photo I'm still not used to this after a few years of using the application. I imagine if you surveyed every English-speaking designer, editor, photo-retoucher in the world you'd struggle to find one who would want the "after" result displayed "before" the "before" result. Our very language suggests the order - "before/after", "left/right", "source/destination". Ron P. 1 Windows 7 & 10 64-bit, Dual Xeon workstation(s) 64gb RAM, and single i7 laptop 32gb RAM

Agreed, this has been confusing the hell out of me for years and it's disappointing to see that it has been raised in the forums five years ago now and still not been addressed by the developers.

Becklo Posted November 29, 2024 Posted November 29, 2024 I just signed up for a free trial of Affinity Photo 2 and have been using it for approximately 20 minutes. This is my first time using the software and am impressed, but the split view arrangement was annoying enough for me to stop what I'm doing to look up how to change it. Y'all. This should be a simple fix. I want the version I'm editing to be next to the panel with the adjustments I'm making. I don't understand the decision to not make it that way to begin with, but I really don't understand the decision to not let people change which side they want for the before and after images.
