Original image in history

[mck]

I open a png image in Affinity Photo.

Then I do a resize operation as: 
300 dpi
inches
10" width
I click the "resize" button.  It works fine.

But then the history palette only shows the resize operation.  The original image is not shown in the history palette.  I could do a (ctrl + z) to undo the resize to return to the original image size but I don't want to delete the resize operation.  Especially if I did 10 operations and if I have 10 steps listed in history.  How do I return to the original image by clicking in the history palette?

I don't really understand what it is you want to do

But there is a snapshot panel from which you can reload the original image and its dimension or you can also create a new document from the snapshot if you just want to reference the original dimensions rather than restore the document to its original state

Hi @mck,

Welcome to the Affinity Forums 

Unfortunately I too am unsure what you're looking to achieve here, as you mention you don't want to 'delete' the resize operation, but you do want to undo it?

Returning the image to 'original' would remove any resizing that you have made to the image.

Could you please provide further explanation here, or perhaps some screenshots showing what you want to achieve?

Many thanks in advance!

Carl123 and Dan C,

Thanks for your responses.  I'm a Photoshop user for many years and just started with Affinity Photo.  

I was confusing Affinity's history palette with the layers palette since the default position of the history palette is at the bottom where Photoshop's layers palette normally is.  It's the layers palette that lists the original image as the first item in the list and what I wanted.

So please disregard this thread.

Thanks,
mck
