walt.farrell Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums, @Barbora Pachmannova. If you're referring to those fine white lines, try disabling Hardware Acceleration (OpenCL) in Photo. Edit > Preferences, then switch to the Performance section, and you'll find that option near the bottom of the list.

Barbora Pachmannova Posted January 23, 2022 Author Share Posted January 23, 2022 @walt.farrell thank you for the advice. Unfortunately, nothing has changed. Furthermore, it's even worse. walt.farrell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Dan C Posted January 24, 2022 Staff Share Posted January 24, 2022 Hi @Barbora Pachmannova, Welcome to the Affinity Forums & I'm sorry to see you're having trouble! Usually disabling Hardware Acceleration would resolve this issue, so I'm going to need more information here. Can you please navigate to Edit > Preferences > Performance and provide a screenshot of your settings? What GPU is your system using, and what version of GPU driver is currently in use? Many thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Dan C Posted January 25, 2022 Staff Share Posted January 25, 2022 Many thanks for the screenshots and information provided! Please try downloading the latest driver from the following link - https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19344/intel-graphics-windows-dch-drivers.html?wapkw=i5-1135G7 With this downloaded, follow Intels' instructions for performing a 'clean install' - https://www.intel.co.uk/content/www/uk/en/support/articles/000057389/graphics.html Once these are installed, restart your device then open AP and try exporting once again, does this resolve the error for you please?

Barbora Pachmannova Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 Hi Dan C, Many thanks, it's working (for now 😁). I really appreciate it. Dan C 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbora Pachmannova Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 Dan C, I have another problem 😆with colour change. When opening in Affinity pic has changed colour. Please see attachments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron P. Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 The color was not changed, it's just duller and flatter because no Exposure or Tone Curve was automatically applied. This is set in the Assistant Manager. In the Develop Persona, you have the ability to develop your RAW images without or with Affinity Photo's applying these. What you're seeing before is a JPEG embedded in the RAW file, and has various adjustments applied. So if you choose to have your RAW file start with those adjustments, just click on the Assistant Manger and check boxes beside them. My personal choice is not to. I want to make all the decisions on how I want my images to look. Dan C 1 Quote Affinity Photo 2.4..; Affinity Designer 2.4..; Affinity Publisher 2.4..; Affinity2 Beta versions.

Staff Dan C Posted January 26, 2022 Staff Share Posted January 26, 2022 Although the above changes may help alleviate this issue, there is a known bug with certain blue tones in RAW files being rendered with a purple cast and I believe this issue is also appearing here - this bug is logged with our developers, so I'll be sure to 'bump' the report now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peach1200 Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Sorry if I revive an old thread. I'm experiencing glitches (same as in the image posted here) when exporting images to JPGs on a laptop with a new Intel 13th gen processor. I've already tried disabling OpenCL acceleration and updating graphic drivers to the latest release but I can't get rid of those glitches. Anyone else experiencing the same issue on these new cpus? Any suggestion how to fix it? ...should I switch to v2 Affinity programs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Dan C Posted June 29, 2023 Staff Share Posted June 29, 2023 Sorry to hear you're having trouble @Peach1200! I am surprised that disabling Hardware Acceleration has not resolved this issue for you, as this usually resolves the issue for other users. After disabling Hardware Acceleration, did you restart the Affinity app before exporting the image once again? 3 hours ago, Peach1200 said: on a laptop with a new Intel 13th gen processor 3 hours ago, Peach1200 said: should I switch to v2 Affinity programs? We are aware of issues in Affinity V1 when using Intel Xe/Iris Graphics, which your laptop may be using. These have been resolved within V2, so you may want to try a free trial of V2 to see if this issue is resolved for you, alongside trying the new and improved features -https://store.serif.com/get/universal-licence-2/trial/ I hope this helps Peach1200 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peach1200 Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 hi @Dan C thank you for your prompt reply. I had a look again at what was happening and noticed that my starting image already had glitches in it! I guess it's from an initial batch of images I resized without disabling hw acceleration.. my fault! I still have to make a few tests but I think you're right: disabling Hardware Acceleration should indeed solve this issue! thank you for your help Dan C 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
