JeffreyWalther Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Hello Affinity, I don't know what happened from the last version 1.8 to 1.9, but a massive performance issue was introduced that makes it difficult to work. Even though I'm using a GTX card, the whole condition has become very, very sluggish. Settings are not updated immediately on the canvas. Also, when working with Canon Raw 2, I noticed that the canvas is not always completely redrawn and even after development, areas are missing. I have been using Affinity for many years now for high-end image processing for the industry and am extremely unhappy with V1.9. 😞 Jeff Quote Affinity Photo/Designer/Publisher V2 Windows 10 Pro, 64 GB RAM AMD Ryzen 9 3900X (12x 3.8 GHz), MSI X570 Unify GeForce RTX 2070 Super 8 GB, NVIDIA driver version 471.41 (Studio) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Chris B Posted February 9, 2021 Staff Share Posted February 9, 2021 Hi Jeff, As mentioned in your other thread, turn off OpenCL or close the Paragraph Panel if it is open.

JeffreyWalther Posted February 9, 2021 Author Share Posted February 9, 2021 For the moment and my short edits, it seems that unchecking the Hardware Acceleration helps to improve performance.

Staff Chris B Posted February 10, 2021 Staff Share Posted February 10, 2021 Interesting. As long as your graphics drivers are up to date I can't see why performance would be worse with OpenCL on as your GTX 1050 should be absolutely fine. I'd suggest leaving it off for now in the retail version and consider installing the beta which runs alongside to check the progress and fixes for OpenCL related issues. This is the recent one, however some customers are reporting it isn't running up so you might want to hold off: Quote How to format a bug report | Learning Resources | List of V2 FAQs | YouTube Tutorials Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
