Eddy-2 Posted February 25, 2020 Posted February 25, 2020 New drawing. Draw rectangle. Draw ellipse. Right click on ellipse in layers panel > Mask to Below. Right click on ellipse mask thumbnail. From the menu, select Release Mask. This reverts to the original set up. Right click on ellipse in layers panel > Mask to Below. Click on the ellipse mask thumbnail to select its layer. Right click in the area to the right of the thumbnail. From the menu which appears, select Release. Both the rectangle and ellipse disappear. What's happening? Quote
Dan C Posted February 25, 2020 Posted February 25, 2020 Hi Eddy-2 Thanks for your report! I can confirm this is a known bug and is with our developers to be resolved - I'll bump the log with your thread now. Eddy-2 1 Quote
Eddy-2 Posted February 25, 2020 Author Posted February 25, 2020 Thanks Dan. I can now start putting back some of the hair that dropped out whilst scratching my head 🙃. Quote
Staff Patrick Connor Posted March 15, 2020 Staff Posted March 15, 2020 We have made fixes/improvements to this area (Releasing a mask by right clicking on the layer name and not the thumbnail deletes both the parent and the mask) 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. Affinity Photo 1.8.1.611 for Windows Affinity Designer 1.8.1.611 for Windows Affinity Publisher 1.8.2.619 for Windows 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.
