thepictureguy Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 Paolo here. aka the picture guy. I bought the Affinity Photo app within the first 2 weeks of its release. I’ve been watching the tutorials and have been following along to learn..... But when they get to inpainting i noticed i do not have the brush on the right hand side. When i click on the bandaid, it doesn’t give any choices, and when i used help, it shows inpainting under edit, but it is not highlighted so it won’t turn on. This was one of the features i have been looking forward to most, and i don’t even have ! HELP!! Quote
crabtrem Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 Hello Paolo, I am just a novice, so I hesitate to ask. But I wanted to make sure you clicked on the little triangle at the bottom right corner, where the bandaid shows up? This should open up the multiple selections to the right, which includes the inpainting brush. Again, I am not with Affinity, and only a novice user, so my response may be way off. Good luck. jrlapides2 1 Quote
yakk Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 Hi Paolo Are you in Photo Persona (the leftmost icon on the top left of the main window) ? You have to click and not let go until you get five different options. Inpainting will be one of them. Quote OS X 10.12 - AP 1.6.6 - AD 1.6
crabtrem Posted August 6, 2015 Posted August 6, 2015 That is a really good point. If you are first loading a RAW image, you are in the Develop Persona, and you have to develop the RAW file first to get to the PHOTO PERSONA. This is where the bandaid you want is. That has the multiple selection window where the inpainting tool is. Quote
jROm Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Hi everybody, I have the same problem. I've looked for the inpainting brush in vain. I've tried to look for it in the settings. No way (See the link) Someone can explain why i can't see the icon please ? Tks GordonLejeune 1 Quote
Staff MEB Posted August 13, 2015 Staff Posted August 13, 2015 Hi jROm, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) Press and hold the Healing Brush Tool icon until a small menu appear, then select the Inpainting Brush Tool from there. See attached screenshot. It's already visible on your screenshot above the Pen Tool. jrlapides2 and Callum 2 Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software

No way (See the link) Someone can explain why i can't see the icon please ? Tks Hi jROm, The Inpainting tool is just in-between the Pen and Smudge tool on your screen shot. I have circled it just incase you still can't find it. Hope this helps :) C Quote Please tag me using @ in your reply so I can be sure to respond ASAP.
jROm Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Ok tks to both of you. I was searching the wrong icon seen on a video, and the wrong text (in french). It's ok for me now, i've tested and no boat on the water after select it :rolleyes: . Tks a lot jROm' Callum 1 Quote

SushantPanda Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 I have a problem on the next step. The brush does not work. Though it shows a message in History and another window also comes as soon as I release the mouse... I dont see the magical red colour :( Quote

Please see my reply to your later post here. In the default layout, the toolbar containing the Healing Brush Tool flyout (where you will also find the Inpainting Brush Tool) is down the left-hand side of the application window.

WJGlass3 Posted May 27, 2017 Posted May 27, 2017 OK it appears as though I have downloaded Affinity Designer but I clicked on the button on the website for Affinity photo. That seems to be the problem. So can I exchange this in any way? I was really wanting Affinity photo. It looks as though the website is confusing. Quote

WJGlass3 Posted May 27, 2017 Posted May 27, 2017 I am using Windows. I paid $49.99 for it so it is not the trial, Quote

marianne Posted December 9, 2018 Posted December 9, 2018 I had the same problem. Figured it out though. The inpainting brush is under the redeye removal tool on mine. Quote
patman Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 Every time you use the tool it leaves an icon of the last tool that you used. For example if you use the red eye removal tool then you would see the red eye icon where you might expect to see the band aid icon. I bit confusing methinks... Quote
