globesessions Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Since version 1.9 of Affinity Photo I have strange green dots when using the repair brush. At first thought it was just a display mistake, but the dots are actually saved in the image. Unfortunately, the current update didn't bring anything either.

firstdefence Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 In English that tool is called the Healing Brush Tool.

firstdefence Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Do you have a particular brush set for the healing brush tool, maybe a texture or spray brush? If you select the healing brush tool, on the context menu there is a More button, click on it to check what brush settings you have selected.

Staff Dan C Posted June 16, 2021 Staff Share Posted June 16, 2021 Hi @globesessions, Our sincerest apologies for the delayed response here, we're currently working through a backlog of tickets, so many thanks for your patience and understanding. If this is happening in Windows 1.9/.1/.2 then it may be caused by Hardware Acceleration. If you navigate to Edit > Preferences > Performance is this option ticked for you? If you untick this option, does this resolve the green colour you're seeing being added by this brush? Many thanks in advance Quote Please note - I am currently out of the office for a short while whilst recovering from surgery (nothing serious!), therefore will not be available on the Forums during this time. Should you require a response from the team in a thread I have previously replied in - please Create a New Thread and our team will be sure to reply as soon as possible. Many thanks!

iconoclast Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 Could be caused by the brushhead you use (as firstdefence already suggested). Have you tried to use a simple one, without any texture? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
