Hi @Narwhal,

Sorry to hear you're having trouble! Can you please navigate to Affinity Photo > Preferences > Performance and provide a screenshot of your settings here for me?

It would also help to see a screen recording of the behaviour you're experiencing, could you please attach a video showing the workflow you're following?

If you're unsure how to take a screen recording, please check out our FAQ linked below - 

Many thanks in advance :)

Hi @Narwhal, we're currently investigating an issue with Monterey and the way the Affinity apps create some of the interface elements. One issue at the moment is the Channels panel, where the thumbnails are constantly being redrawn. You will probably find that other tools such as adjustments and filters will cause hitching with it open.

The temporary solution is to switch across to another panel, e.g. Navigator, History etc so that the Channels panel is not being viewed. You will probably find your Selection Brush now behaves without any lagginess.

Hope that helps and rest assured we are trying to communicate this issue directly to Apple for a potential OS fix.
