Mario Torre Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Hi all, I have a problem with Photos when using the blend mode on a layer where the blend mode preview doesn't work at all. I attach a screencast to better explain the issue. I appreciate if there is any workaround possible. My machine is an iMac late 2015 with MacOS 10.15.7, Everything is up to date, including Photo (version 1.9.3).

Staff MEB Posted May 4, 2021 Staff Share Posted May 4, 2021 Hi @Mario Torre, Welcome to Affinity Forums Doe it happens with other images after you restart the application? If so can you please go to Affinity Photo Preferences > Performance section, untick/disable Enable Metal compute acceleration then restart the app and check again? Does it still bah the same way?

Mario Torre Posted May 4, 2021 Author Share Posted May 4, 2021 Hi! Metal acceleration was enabled. I disabled it and restarted and this fixes the problem. Interestingly I just tried setting metal acceleration back on and it seems to still work correctly now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted May 4, 2021 Staff Share Posted May 4, 2021 That's why i suggested to restart the app first - to check if it was a casual glitch -a simple restart would fix it. Seems it was indeed the case. Let us know if you experience the issue again.
