Strange Artifacts in Panorama - Horizontal Lines


Recommended Posts

I recently downloaded the newest version of Affinity Photo (1.10.5) and I'm experiencing an issue when stitching panoramas together.  I use the File>New Panorama path to select my images and then create the panorama.  Everything looks great within Affinity, however upon export I'm seeing horizontal lines with what appears to be missing data.  Here is a screenshot of the same area in Affinity and in a photo viewer after exporting (I've tried exporting as a PNG, JPG and TIFF and the results are the same).

I thought it had to do with the images, so I tried a new pano with a different set of images with the same result.  I think opened the exported file in Affinity and cleaned up the lines using the inpainting tool.  Everything looked good.  Upon resaving, brand new artifacts appeared in different spots.  I'm unsure what's causing it or how to resolve it.

 

OS: Windows 11

RAM: 32 GB

CPU: i7-12700K

Hardware Acceleration is enabled.  Rendering through my Geforce RTX 3070 card.

 

Thank you

*Facepalm* I can't believe I didn't try that myself.  I even took the step to disable, restart, then re-enable in case it was a problem.  I didn't just leave it off and try.  But that did indeed work.  Thanks very much for the speedy response.

Thank You both for the question & response I was having the same exact issue and couldn't figure out what was going on. Thanks for the answer!
