velarde Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Hello Using the latest version of Affinity Photo. and this is the first time this has happened to me. I open some images and they are upside down. In these last couple of days I've had it happen several times. Resetting the rotation fixes the issue, but not sure if this is a bug or why is it happening now. Thanks Quote ------------------------ Fernando Velarde www.velarde.com Instagram.com/soyfervelarde Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

velarde Posted April 17, 2020 Author Share Posted April 17, 2020 Hello. thanks for the response I don't have them... • I downloaded them from different sites. One was a SVG from flaticon.com. I download icons from there almost everyday. • Another was a png or jpg image I downloaded for reference from a WordPress website I built .. (saved from Affinity) When I opened them they appeared upside down in Affinity Photo... If I left them upside down and exported they looked ok... But if I rotated them 180 degrees in Affinity Photo and exported them they exported upside down.. For some reason Affinity Photo was opening them with a 180 degree rotation in the viewport. This has happened on these couple of files in these past weeks (never had this problem before) . The first one, the SVG I dismissed as a fluke but when a couple of days it happened to a jpg image I thought it may be a bug. If nobody is having this problem (which doesn't happen often) it may be on my end. Thanks, fjv Quote ------------------------ Fernando Velarde www.velarde.com Instagram.com/soyfervelarde Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geeknurse Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Hi all, I am experiencing the very same behaviour of Affinity Photo (1.8.4 on macOS 10.15.7). As it seems, the coordinate system of the window in which the file is opened is somehow messed up: Other than expected, the coordinate axes have unit vectors [-1,0] and [0,-1] instead of [1,0] and [0,1]. Pixels with positive coordinates are in the upper-left quadrant of the coordinate system, not the lower-left. The contents of the opened file appears as if rotated about 180°. Despite the erroneous display an export of the just opened file will be fine and oriented correctly. In the screenshots attached you can see that the window's set up is not ok. Also attached is the file that causes this behaviour. It seems that images of a small size in width and height will cause it.

geeknurse Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Worked, thanks! 🤗 Still a bug I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Blade Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 So peculiar, the way it looks fine in finder and Clickteam Fusion where the image came from, but in Affinity Photo it's upside down and back to front. I tried flipping it both vertically then horizontally which made it look fine in Affinity but then the wrong way everywhere else. So thanks for the tip about resetting rotation. Exported it after that and it looks fine everywhere now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
