alexbet Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 This is the first time I am running into this problem where I do NOT see photos in the PSD file (see screenshot) in Affinity Photo. In my screenshot, the photos need to be where the transparent parts are. At first, I thought something is wrong with the PSD or that the images were linked, but then I opened it in Pixelmator (I don't have Photoshop installed), and I see that the photos are there (see second screenshot). So, I guess this is an Affinity problem, probably with the newest version of Photoshop files. Here is my system info: Affinity Photo v1.9.2 Mac OS v11.2.3 Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

alexbet Posted March 31, 2021 Author Share Posted March 31, 2021 Hi @walt.farrell, thanks for your reply. The image layer is missing in Affinity Photo for some reason, but it is there in Pixelmator. See screenshots to see the layer missing. VERY weird! I really don't like working in Pixelmator because I am used to Affinity products, but this is a real problem because I can't do anything. Thanks!
