krikor Posted May 27, 2022 Author Share Posted May 27, 2022 I transfer the file to a different M1 computer and I'm still getting the artifact. I also notice that layer FX do not get exported as seen on the last two images. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krikor Posted May 27, 2022 Author Share Posted May 27, 2022 when turning off Metal in the graphic preferences it seems I don't get the artifacts. But then the app becomes pretty unresponsive. If I choose integrated GPU and OpenGL it seems to be ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedvedMinis Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Hello @krikor, I have been recently dealing with the same issue and it has been bugging me for quite a while. I have found a temporary solution to start up the app via Rosetta (Finder > Affinity App *right click* > Information > Open via Rosetta). This is not the best solution, however, the artefacts on the export are gone. There might be a few program lags but it does what it is supposed to do. Let me know! Take care.

Take care. actually it might be better than taking the metal acceleration off. I'm gonna look into it MedvedMinis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
