'Alt' Clipping Indication for Curves and Levels adjustments?

[Matt Padden]

Hi,

 

Just starting out evaluating the AP trial against my current editor (PS CS6). Very impressed so far; hugely impressed with your work.

 

I primarily use Curves and Levels adjustment masks in my work. Using a Levels adjustment mask in PS CS6 and adjusting the Black and White levels, I can see a full-image clipping indication mask if I hold down ALT while adjusting. This is a really helpful tool. Is there an equivalent for this in AP? I tried holding down ALT while adjusting black/white sliders but there was no effect. I also tried the other modifier keys (Shift, Cmd etc), but also no effect.

 

I'm using AP Trial v1.3.5 on a late 2012 Mac Mini running OS X 10.10.5.

 

Many thanks,

Matt

Hi Matt,

Welcome to Affinity Forums :)

Currently this is not available in the Trial/Mac App Store version however the "clipping preview” function was already integrated in the Betas although only available for the Levels Adjustment for now (pressing ⌥ (option/alt) while dragging the sliders).

Hi MEB,

 

Thanks for your reply. Is the plan to reintroduce the clipping preview feature into the full version?

 

Many thanks,

Matt

I´d love to have that also indeed, probably because it´s so useful and I´m using the same tool (CS6)!

Same for anything sharpening related is dearly missed as well.

It'll be in the next MAS version update but I also requested this for the sharpening tool but somehow the devs are not so much around the feature request forum at the moment. Lots of bugs though, they might have a busy time in the office.

I think they know about the sharpening masking issue though - just haven't had time yet I guess

Hi Matt,

All features introduced in the Beta (for testing and feedback purposes) will be then implemented in the Mac App Store version.

Hi MEB,

 

Great news, many thanks for clarifying.

 

Cheers,

Matt
