hollywinskell Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 is there any reason that white would stop working? It shows on the colour wheel yet when set to white on the wheel the item will turn black/ grey even though all other colours show as normal?? using affinity designer beta on mac. thanks!!

Staff MEB Posted March 2, 2020 Staff Share Posted March 2, 2020 Hi hollywinskell, Welcome to Affinity Forums Do you mind attaching a sample file with the offending object? You can delete all the other objects as long as the issue is still reproducible for you in the new file. Thanks.

Staff Sean P Posted March 2, 2020 Staff Share Posted March 2, 2020 A screenshot showing what you're seeing would also be helpful as well! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollywinskell Posted March 2, 2020 Author Share Posted March 2, 2020 its happening on ALL objects, text curves ect, on all files and does not change when shut down application and open it back up. Its like a setting somewhere?? As you can see objects change to any other colour?? Screen_Recording_2020-03-02_at_16_05_41.mov Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vonBusing Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Since it's an image (rather than a vector object) that you are recoloring, you could use the overlay layer effect to fill with an actual color, like white. Not sure how the fill property on an image is actually working, but it is some kind of tinting rather than fill that is occurring. Maybe someone will be able to explain the different color matematics between fill and color overlay on an image. They surely are different.

White is working correctly. Applying a fill colour to an Image object will result in the colour's hue and saturation (the H and S of the HSL representation of the colour) and the Image's luminosity (the L of the HSL representation of each pixel). Both white and black have no saturation, therefore the same greyscale image results when either white or black (or any grey) is applied as the fill colour. vonBusing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff MEB Posted August 26, 2021 Staff Share Posted August 26, 2021 Hi @yeoyaoyoyo, Welcome to Affinity Forums Can you post a screenshot of the app with the layers panel visible or a video of what you are doing so we have a reference to base our replies on? Thank you. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software | Affinity Quick Reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
