Affinity photo Brush delay (windows version 1.85)

[John Li]

Hi,

I bought affinity photo on windows Microsoft Store recently. I found out some of the brushes other than basic brushes always have a huge delay when I use a high resolution(300 ppi)artboard. I read about similar problems that have been discussed in this forums. I changed the spacing of brushes that delayed, but this solution is not working for my case.  There is no problem when I draw with Adobe Photoshop. I wonder if other people have this problem, or it is just my setting being  incorrect. My computer has an intel core i7 7th gen chip, a Nvidia GeForce gtx1060 graphic card, and 16g ram. This delay problem is really bugging me. I hope there is a way to fix it, or I can only going back to photoshop.

Hi @John Li,

Welcome to the forums and my sincerest apologies for the delayed response here!

Can you please confirm for me, what brush and brush size are you using exactly when you see this issue?

Please open Edit > Preferences > Performance and provide a screenshot of your settings here.

Are you using a drawing tablet at all, or only a mouse?

Many thanks in advance

Hi Dan,

Quite amount of brushes have this issue. almost every brushes under acrylics(brush size128px) except grainy acrylic have the delay issue. I only use mouse. I attached my document setting, the delaying brush, and performance screenshots. Thank you for helping me on this.
