Carlos2021 Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Hi, I've been using unsharp mask without a problem until today, now when i duplicate the layer, open the unsharp box and adjust the settings to how i want it, when I click apply, it goes back to the original blured image. Don't know if this has been since the upgrade? It works perfectly if I do a blur but not when i use unsharp mask Please help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstdefence Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Which Operating System are you using? Does this also happen with the Live Unsharp Mask Adjustment filter? The Live Unsharp Mask Adjustment filter is a non destructive alternative found on the layers panel Quote iMac 27" 2019 Somona 14.4.1, iMac 27" Affinity Designer, Photo & Publisher V1 & V2, Adobe, Inkscape, Vectorstyler, Blender, C4D, Sketchup + more...

If you're unsure how to take a screen recording, please check out our FAQ linked below - If you're using Windows, this may be due to the new OpenCL Hardware Acceleration. A few users are experiencing issues with this enabled, the number one cause of which is outdated Graphics Card drivers. Please visit the manufactures link below to download the latest driver available - - Intel: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/detect.html - Nvidia: https://www.geforce.com/drivers - AMD: https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/faq/gpu-driver-autodetect Note: you may need to go direct to your PC manufactures website for a driver, if you see a warning regarding 'OEM drivers' when trying to install one from the above sites. Once downloaded and installed, please restart your computer and then launch the Affinity app again. Does this resolve any issues with your filters and masks please?
