Some seriously weird stuff going on on live guasian blur filter.


Recommended Posts

I'm blaming the hardware acceleration again in combination with running out of Video RAM..

It's not as bad as the first 1.9.0 release but this is in 1.9.1.979.

Save document, restart affinity photo and reopen document and it's normal again so it's not exactly major but it is annoying and shouldn't happen.

Hey Xzenor,

Sorry if you've been asked this before but what graphics card and driver do you have? 

I would keep OpenCL off for now until further improvements have been made and perhaps consider installing the beta to keep up with the changes that are being applied to OpenCL.

Nvidia GTX 980.
Latest driver 461.92. 

Honestly, this is workable for me. I don't lose work because of it. It's an annoyance but that's all.

I'm just reporting the bug because, well that's what you do with bugs. Report'm or else the devs don't know the problem exists.

If it's no longer necessary for OpenCL related issues then just let me know and I'll stop reporting them until the next release. I've not seen a 'please! stop reporting this!' post yet like the one for the Unsplash bug 😅

😂

The OpenCL stuff is a bit more varied and it's causing numerous... 'annoyances'. I think we'd always want to hear about them.

You're also on the recent driver so I doubt it's that. Do you havean Intel card running as well or is this disabled in Device Manager? Check to see if that needs updating. Also, can you post a Benchmark?

Hi, sorry for the late reply... I forgot about it 😳

I do have some onboard Intel thingy but it's disabled in the bios. It doesn't show up in the Device Manager anymore.
I have not seen the issue anymore after this and we're at 1.9.2 now so maybe it's fixed.

I am curious about what kind of Benchmark you're referring to though. Something like 3DMark? Or one less gaming-related?

The Affinity own benchmark. It is visible after starting Affinity, without opening any file, in the right-most menu

Special interest into procedural texture filter, edit alpha channel, RGB/16 and RGB/32 color formats, stacking, finding root causes for misbehaving files, finding creative solutions for unsolvable tasks, finding bugs in Apps.

My posts focus on technical aspects and leave out most of social grease like „maybe“, „in my opinion“, „I might be wrong“ etc. just add copy/paste all these softeners from this signature to make reading more comfortable for you. Otherwise I’m a fine person which respects you and everyone and wants to be respected.
