Nic727 Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 Hi, I’m trying the trial version of Affinity Photo and I don’t find how to create layers? I thought Affinity Photo was non-destructive? currently trying to add lens blur or depth of field blue on a photo, but it doesn’t create mask. thank you for helping. Quote
v_kyr Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 See: Using live filters About the lens blur filter Blur filters Quote About filters In Affinity Photo, filters are available in both non-destructive and destructive forms. A variety of filters are available as Live Filters which are non-destructive. For destructive filters, it's a great idea to make a duplicate layer of the layer you planned to work on. By applying a filter to the duplicated layer, you preserve the original layer's contents, with the option to hide the 'filter' layer as needed.

Old Bruce Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 Go to View > Studio > Layers to make sure it is ticked. Toggle it on and off in order to see it. The non-destructive layers you probably want are accessed through the icons at the bottom of the layers panel. You can also do so with the Layers Menu.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
