Ron P. Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Welcome to the forums, @Andy Bennett, @Cosmopolish, @Phil Jackson Each of you need to provide more information so someone can provide meaningful help. OS, Mac or Windows, and versions Using a designated video card? IF so what (Nvidia, Intel...)? Do you have Hardware Acceleration, OpenCL active? If so, have you tried to deactivate it? (Preferences>Performance) Without being able to look over your shoulder, no one can see just how the patch tool is not working as you expect it to. So either provide a detailed description of what your doing, what it's doing or not doing, or upload screenshots or a short video clip showing this behavior. Thank you.

Cosmopolish Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Hi, Windows 10 Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Hardware acceleration was active on default and the patch tool didn't work. When disabled, the patch tool works. I had 3 different issues with the patch tool: 1. When selecting the area and clicking away to confirm I get lines across the selection and some strange noise in the histogram. 2. When selecting the area and clicking away to confirm I get a black patch in place of the selection. 3. The patch tool works more like a hard stamp tool. I hope it's visible on the screens attached.

Staff Patrick Connor Posted February 10, 2021 Staff Share Posted February 10, 2021 @Andy Bennett Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums To all in this thread: This issue in 1.9.0 when hardware acceleration is enabled has been addressed in the latest beta released yesterday You can install the beta in parallel with the release version if you want to try this fix for us. This problem will therefore be addressed in the 1.9.1 update that will follow soon.

renoskostopoulos Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Hello. This is open cl problem from perfomance preferences tab. Disable open cl solves the problem but affinity becomes a bit lagier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
