DarkLightRach Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Hoping someone can help me, I'm teaching myself how to use both Affinity programs. I have managed to merge layers by "Merge Visible", now I need to unmerge them to fix a mistake I made, can anyone tell me how I do this? Thanks!

Staff MEB Posted December 21, 2015 Staff Share Posted December 21, 2015 Hi DarkLightRach, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) Go to the History panel on the bottom right of the interface and drag the slider back until you undo the Merge step.

DarkLightRach Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 Thanks, but I accidentally closed it down and saved, now I only have "Set current selection" in the history? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted December 21, 2015 Staff Share Posted December 21, 2015 If you saved and closed the file, there's no way to revert to a previous state unless you have enabled/checked File ▸ Save History With Document, which doesn't seem to be the case if you only have that step in the History panel.

A_B_C Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Unfortunately, you won’t be able to get back to your original state now … :( (But here’s a hint for future accidents: you can save the history with the document (File > Save History With Document), if you are prepared to deal with larger file sizes … :)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_B_C Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Oops, MEB was faster … ;) (But here’s another idea … do you have a mobile Mac with local backups enabled? Perhaps you are lucky and find a previous version there …) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkLightRach Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 Thanks for your help guys, I really appreciate it. Sadly my mac didn't save any previous versions but it was easy enough to take down and redo! Thanks again! DLR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
