Image/layer appearing pixelated when reopening an .afphoto file


Recommended Posts

Hey, guys!

I'm new at Affinity Photo, and begun experiencing this problem recently. I start my editing process in Lightroom. I then select the option to open the image in Affinity Photo, and thus Lightroom creates a compressed Tiff (Adobe RGB, 16 bits, resolution of 300). Affinity then automatically opens the Zip, and creates a new .afphoto file. Everything is working perfectly until I close the program and reopen it the other day. The original base layer somehow becomes quite pixelated, and the only way to solve this is by importing the original Tiff file, to replace the pixelated one).

Does anyone have any clue to why this is happening?

Hi @João Vítor Martins,
Thanks for the files. I've replicated the issue here and I'm logging it to be looked at. Although this doesn't help much, if you perform some actions - for example paint a dot in the background layer then undo this step - it eventually will force the redraw of the layer "fixing" the pixelated look. In any case this shouldn't be happening. I'm passing the file to the dev team for further inspection. Thanks for raising this up.
