Flock17 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I'm have some issues using these tools. I am working on a project and try to use the blur tool and my PC starts revving loudly and takes close to 10 minutes to catch up after making one stroke. Is this a PC issue or an Affinity issue? Does anyone have a recommendation/solution? Is there a change I can make in performance settings? I am running with Affinity Photo 1.8.5.703 on an HP Pavilion AMD A-12-9800 Radeon R7, 3.8 GHz, 16 GB RAM, XP-Pen Artist 22E Pro. The project is 11"x 8.5" 300 dpi. Thank you in advance.

Staff stokerg Posted November 10, 2020 Staff Share Posted November 10, 2020 Hi @Flock17, Could you take a screenshot of the Performance settings in Preferences and post it here? Also what size brush are you using and does it happen if you use a really small brush, say 1 pixel in size? Also does the same happen with the latest beta which you can download from here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flock17 Posted November 10, 2020 Author Share Posted November 10, 2020 Hi @stokerg, Thank you for the reply. I have attached a screenshot of my preferences and the last brush size using the blur tool. I did not try to use it any smaller than that, though I will to see if there is a difference, though I know the effect will not be what I'm looking for. I will also try the latest beta to see if the same thing happens.
