gumbo23 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 I seem to have a vanilla setup in Designer, but there is no sign of any selection tools. And there is no help in the help menu - it does not tell me where to find them, only how to use them. So where/how do I find them? Thanks. Update: In case anyone else is lost on this - I found that you have to hit pixel persona in the top left, next to Designer persona, which is next to the traffic light buttons for Mac. It would be very helpful if Affinity could put this location info right at the top of the Help section. Alfred 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would indeed. It’s perhaps fairly obvious with hindsight that pixel selections are made in the Pixel Persona, but hindsight is a wonderful thing!

If you type selection tools into the Search bar in the Help (on Windows, or online; Mac may be different) you get a list including, e.g., Marquee Selection Tools. At the top of that entry, you see the icons for the tool, and for the Persona you need to be in. Here's a screenshot of a similar entry for the Selection Brush Tool: Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.
