NotMyFault Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 16 minutes ago, EvgenyI said: @NotMyFault, I’m talking about an application for ipad, I don’t understand why you are testing it on a program for desktop computers, look at the same file in Designer, there is no such error, and yes it’s a BUG!) THE TASK is to merge seamlessly layers that were originally merged seamlessly! If you open this file in the designer, then this bug is not there and all images are combined seamlessly. and if you try to repeat this in Photo, then a seam appears! I did not add these images manually, I take the finished file, where these images were merged seamlessly, you know what I'm talking about? It seems my answers don’t find your open ear. Designer will show the same “non-bug” if you set the view mode to pixel. I already mentioned this in my very first post in this thread. If you export the file from designer as raster format (jpeg, tiff, png), the issue will be visible in the exported file, even if designer does not show it (in vector view mode) i will now step out of the discussion for good as it became a bit heated, and deviated from the actual issue, its probable cause, and options to avoid the cause. I have done my best to identify the root cause. I wish all the best for you, maybe others are more capable to explain this in a way which suits you better. Sorry to disappoint you.

I don’t understand why I have to explain this simple thing several times) Maybe walt and all others already perfectly understood what is going on, do not require any more repetition, and only one single person refuses to listen. We don’t know who stretched the images, and it actually doesn’t matter, its a simple fact that there are stretched. And that this causes or increases the problem.

I don’t understand why I have to explain this simple thing several times) Yes, but where did that file come from? It is a multi-layer file with some vector shapes and some Image layers. How did you create the file? How did you Place the image layers there? Where did the image layers come from? From what we can see using the desktop applications, the Image layers are not at their original image sizes, and @NotMyFault has theorized that this is the cause of the problem. The fact that the file displays differently in Photo and in Designer does not mean that there is a bug, because Photo and Designer use different display technologies. Without more explanation, it is merely a difference. ---- However, thank you for insisting that we look using Designer. I have done that (again, on the desktop) and whether I use the Vector view mode or the Pixel view mode I cannot see the transparent border pixel in Designer, though I can clearly see it in Photo. I do not have an explanation for that, but perhaps @NotMyFault will have some further thoughts on that.

I'm just talking about this translucent frame! this file is a print screen of the page from the safari browser, the images on the page fit snugly, there is no transparent border, but this border appears in Affinity Photo! and I don't know why, it just shouldn't be there, and it shouldn't require any actions with layers.

NotMyFault Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 (edited) There is actually a point that designer and photo render files differently, but as explained this is only with regard to anti-aliasing, and according to Affinity mods by design. You can read more about this here: I exported the file as png both by designer and photo on iPad, and the exports actually differ: the partial transparent line is visible only in Photo There is some noise across the complete file delta amplified.afphoto Edited November 17, 2021 by NotMyFault Added files walt.farrell 1 Quote Mac mini M1 A2348 | Windows 10 - AMD Ryzen 9 5900x - 32 GB RAM - Nvidia GTX 1080 LG34WK950U-W, calibrated to DCI-P3 with LG Calibration Studio / Spider 5 iPad Air Gen 5 (2022) A2589 Special interest into procedural texture filter, edit alpha channel, RGB/16 and RGB/32 color formats, stacking, finding root causes for misbehaving files, finding creative solutions for unsolvable tasks, finding bugs in Apps.

If the file was from a simple printscreen, it would not have those layers. It would be 1 layer, or possibly 2. It could be a file you created from multiple printscreen operations, where you used File > Place to put each printscreen file into a new Designer or Photo document as an Image layer. Or one created by copying from a safari page and Pasting into a document in Designer or Photo, multiple times.

Desktop and iPad differ in some aspects. IPad cannot Modify view quality and rendering mode (probably fixed to “best” and Bilinear) Deactivate Metal acceleration Cannot use anti-aliasing profiles (did not test if able to use if already present). On Desktop, profiles are totally broken, so nothing to really miss on iPad. Not to forget: Windows / Mac have some unfixed platform specific bugs which play into the game. walt.farrell 1 Quote Mac mini M1 A2348 | Windows 10 - AMD Ryzen 9 5900x - 32 GB RAM - Nvidia GTX 1080 LG34WK950U-W, calibrated to DCI-P3 with LG Calibration Studio / Spider 5 iPad Air Gen 5 (2022) A2589 Special interest into procedural texture filter, edit alpha channel, RGB/16 and RGB/32 color formats, stacking, finding root causes for misbehaving files, finding creative solutions for unsolvable tasks, finding bugs in Apps.
