Ukkiwi Posted August 10, 2021 Posted August 10, 2021 Why when I make an adjustment to an image, even something as simple as contrast, is there so much lag, when the exact same action on the same image, on the same lap top, in photo shop is super smooth. Bought affinity to try as an alternative to photo shop, starting to regret my decision. Quote
Dan C Posted August 11, 2021 Posted August 11, 2021 Hi @Ukkiwi, Sorry to hear you're having trouble in Affinity! Can you please open Affinity Photo > Preferences > Performance and provide a screenshot of your settings here for me? Many thanks in advance Quote
Dan C Posted August 12, 2021 Posted August 12, 2021 Many thanks for your screenshot! Can you please try changing the following settings - Display - set this to Metal (If avaliable) Retina Rendering - set this to Low Quality (fastest) Hardware Acceleration - enable this option. Restart the app as prompted and try editing your images once again - does this improve the responsiveness of the app? If you're still having trouble, try disabling Hardware Acceleration again, but leave the other settings as above. Please do let me know if this helps Quote
