Keyboard shortcut not "visible" ?


Recommended Posts

Affinity Photo 1.7.3.481/Windows 10

I was assigning the keyboard shortcut <ctrl>+<alt>+<f> (to New fill Layer) only to discover that it is duplicated.  It apparently clashes with <Repeat Last Filter> but I cannot find that command in the User>Preferences>Keyboard Shortcuts menu to remove.  The newly assinged shortcut works successfully as it overrides the <Repeat Last Filter> but it would be nice to be able to remove the pre-defined assingment (or assign that to another key combination).

Interesting.

Logically it should be under the Photo Persona, Filters menu, in the Keyboard Shortcuts. But I don't see it there, either, in either 1.7 or the 1.8 beta.

"Repeat Last Filter" only appears after you use a filter that can be repeated.

You're right, it should!

Maybe the problem is that it actually says Repeat "whatever the last filter was" and that's difficult for the developers to put in the shortcut list. I don't know, but maybe you'd have to have an entry for every filter? Personally I think it would be easier if it just said "Repeat last filter" and was greyed out if not available.

We have made fixes/improvements to this area ('Repeat' shortcut is missing from Keyboard Shortcuts in Preferences [Windows]) of the program in the latest customer beta. If you would like to try these changes the beta software is available in the forum posts listed below.

The latest beta builds are downloadable from links at the top of each of these beta forum posts.

These betas install parallel, next to the release version (they do not overwrite your release) and so the fixes can be tried in the beta without affecting your normal workflow in the release version.

Once these programs have been through a full beta process the change will be released in a future free 1.8.1/1.8.2 update/patch to all customers.
