Space between tiled layers on Affinity Photo

[DavidTh]

Hi

I'm a fabric designer who used to work on Photoshop and recently switched to Affinity Photo.

To make repeating patterns, I need to be sure that cropped edges fit together with no space between them.

I have found repeatedly that on Affinity Photo there is a 1 pixel line that separates my cropped tiles. It's as if the cropped line is not absolutely sharp, and has a pixel or so of fuzz to it.

This means that any fabric pattern I send to be printed will not repeat perfectly.

 

Does anyone have any suggestions for how I can fix this? is there something I have enabled/disabled that I am not aware of?

If I can't find a solution I'll have to revert to Photoshop, which I don't really want to do otherwise.

Thanks to anyone who helps, I hope my description makes the issue clear.

Attached is an image as an example - you can see the flaw below the guide.

Hi Davidth,

Welcome to the forums

If possible could you provide the sample file so I can try some different things and get back to you?

Thanks
