[SillyWalk 44]

Hi,
I found some blurred UI icons in the top banner and in the New Document Dialog (with templates).

I'm on Catalina with Metal enabled.

I have no such issue.

Not seeing it on Mojave with Metal.

Metal is enabled AfP restarted, result is still the same for me.

maybe it has to do with retina/non-retina?

for me, some ui-texts (the same) are blurry, on my non-retina monitor

I am seeing the same, slightly blurred items too.

We have this logged, it only happens on non-retina screens, thanks for the reports

Same beta, different computer, iMac with Retina display, macOS Catalina, everything looks fine.

@Jon P I think, you meant: "only on NON-retina screens"

[Jon P 369]

I did indeed

I am sorry to say, but this is also present on my non-retina iMac 2011. I am using El Capitan and I see the same blurred UI, especially on the New Document screen

edit: sorry I missed your correction

I have this issue too. I keep thinking my eyesight is going! I have Mac (27-inch, Late 2013).

P.S I couldn’t seem to upload the screenshot, I got a message saying please contact us for assistance...?

Hi all! I'm following this post and reading that the issue was related to non-retinas? Well Im on a retina and the ui seems ever so slightly enlarged/blurred. Definitely no issue with Designer.

That appears to be a problem indeed. In your screenshot, it looks like the Affinity interface is running as though it were not a retina display, because the interface appears to be half the resolution compared to that of the About This Mac window in front.

Do you happen to have a second monitor also connected to your Mac, and is it retina capable? Also, that screenshot is of Photo, and this is the Publisher forum. Do you have the problem in Publisher? What version of Photo are you running?

I don't have another monitor that is retina but I do have another iMac (24 inch early 2009) that is running Affinity Photo(1.8.2). I just updated the application. The UI seems fine to me on that older iMac.

Very sorry about posting here. I googled and one of the results led me to this page. I will post in that topic area.

I am running the Photo (1.8.2) on both machines.

While there seems to be an issue going on. It's not so much that I cannot get work done.
