Ron P. Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Welcome to the forums @FETTESfrettchen, What OS, Mac or Windows? What Graphics Card are you using? Since there's been problems with the new Hardware Acceleration, OpenCL Compute, I'm guessing it may be your problem. Go to Preferences>Performance, then down at the bottom there's a box beside the Hardware Acceleration Option. It's enabled (checked) by default. Uncheck it. Restart Designer, see if that corrected your problems. Without knowing what OS you're using, I'm not sure on which forum to refer you to download a Beta version. They have fixed some of the Hardware Acceleration issues in the Beta version. The Beta versions can run alongside the retail versions, so you do not need to uninstall it. Here's where you can find the Beta Forums. Select the appropriate one. https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/forum/60-affinity-designer-beta-forums/ FETTESfrettchen 1 Quote Affinity Photo 2.5..; Affinity Designer 2.5..; Affinity Publisher 2.5..; Affinity2 Beta versions.
