Affinity Photo crashes during the panorama stitching with TIFF files

[TyphoonDu]

Hi all,

My Affinity Photo crashes when I try to create a panorama using TIFF files. It crashes (without any message) instantly when I hit apply after it renders a panorama, or few seconds after I try to see rendered panorama with magnifier. My last attempt was with 5 TIFF (16-bit) files generated in Capture One 20 (Canon 6D). Each file is 114 MB. Before that I tried with few old TIFF files from 2007 (Olympus E-500). It crashes the same way. Everything works well with JPEG files. I tried with 8-bit TIFF files with ZIP compression (~32 Mb each file) as well and it still crashes instantly after I hit apply after the panorama is rendered.

I have the latest version of Affinity Photo (1.8.5.703) and bellow are my PC specifications:

 

Windows 10 64-bit PRO with latest updates

Intel i-7 4790 3.6 GHz CPU

32 Gb DDR3 RAM

GeForce GTX 1050 Ti

Samsung EVO 250 Gb SSD disc

Asus H97-PLUS MBO

My PC is clean from any malware software and works well.

UPDATE:  I set GPU to WARP and it's OK now, no crashes so far.
