Superclipping Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 A clipping path is a vector path which allows part of an image to show while hiding the rest. For example, if you apply a oval clipping path to a photo, the image will be visible inside the oval. Everything that is "left over," or outside the oval "frame" will disappear.

Staff MEB Posted October 16, 2015 Staff Share Posted October 16, 2015 Hi Superclipping, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) Affinity apps already support clipping paths. Drag an image/layer over a shape or closed path - the clipping path - in the Layers panel.

Staff Ben Posted October 19, 2015 Staff Share Posted October 19, 2015 If you are referring to clipping paths in exported/imported raster formats, such as jpeg. We don't currently support them.

anon1 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 You can also create the path and then hit the mask button and then export the picture as a png. Maybe this helps in some situations? I guess you'll be adding them at some point anyway right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
