Chris26 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Hallo, welcome to the forum, go to "View" > "Studio"> "Layers" As a side note, when you start a topic, simply call the topic by the nature of your question, for example, in this instance I would write: "Layers Panel disappeared" Or can not find my layers panel for example. jmwellborn 1 Quote Microsoft - Like entering your home and opening the stainless steel kitchen door, with a Popup: 'Do you really want to open this door'? Then looking for the dishwasher and finding it stored in the living room where you have to download a water supply from the app store, then you have to buy microsoft compliant soap, remove the carpet only to be told that it is glued to the floor.. Don't forget to make multiple copies of your front door key and post them to all who demand access to all the doors inside your home including the windows and outside shed. Apple - Like entering your home and opening the oak framed Kitchen door and finding the dishwasher right in front you ready to be switched on, soap supplied, and water that comes through a water softener. Ah the front door key is yours and it only needs to open the front door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walt.farrell Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 A screenshot showing your Affinity Photo window would help, @peter hayward. But in the meantime... Is anything else missing (Toolbar, Context Toolbar, Tools panel, all the studio on right/left)? If all of that is missing, you hid your UI, and to get it back you just press Tab or View > Toggle UI. If you have all of the non-Studio stuff, but you're missing the entire studio, then View > Studio > Show Right Studio or possibly View > Studio > Hide Studio. If you have the right-side studio showing, perhaps the Layers panel is not the currently active panel, and the panel name is abbreviated, e.g. to Lyr and you're just not seeing it. If you have multiple monitors, perhaps you moved the Layers panel to a different monitor than you're looking at, possibly one that is not currently connected. Or, if all else fails, you could try View > Studio > Reset Studio.
