Affinity Photo Trial Other than that, if you are sure it's always due to the "Apple wide color sharing profile", then exchange that profile with the "sRGB IEC61966-2.1" color profile for such iPhone images.

What if you have an according user account on our wife's mac + use your Apple ID?

Since the issue is … 1) caused by an Apple colour profile, … 2) created on an Apple device and … 3) you are able to demonstrate its effect in three different apps differently (APh, Photoshop Elements, XnView) it might be worth to check which of the apps uses what GPU and if the affected apps have the GPU in common then make an appointment in an Apple Store at least to let them see what's going on. Nothing to loose but time. Another idea: let Apple check online the hardware via boot in Hardware Test mode (press cmd-D when booting): https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202731 Quote macOS 10.14.6 | MacBookPro Retina 15" | Eizo 27" | Affinity V1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gianni Becattini Posted August 27, 2022 Author Share Posted August 27, 2022 I could not succeed with neither. In the first case, there is not the edit option, in the second nothing happens when I click and hold.

adoyle Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 (edited) I just found this topic. I've been having the same problem, see the topic at Whole image flickers on M2 Macbook Air Apple Wide Color Sharing Profile seems to the the problem. It's possible that there's some software problem that's only become apparent with the new M2. Edited October 23, 2022 by adoyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gianni Becattini Posted December 28, 2023 Author Share Posted December 28, 2023 Maybe is still not in the production version currently? The problem seems to be still there.

Gianni Becattini Posted December 28, 2023 Author Share Posted December 28, 2023 @Serif Info Bot @Serif Info Bot About the M2 Mac flashing workspace - when using Apple Wide Colour Gamut" (REF: AF-473) I still have the same problem but not always. Maybe that the old files created with the previous versions have still the problem when opened in the last AP version? I have many files with this problem.

(But that's OK in this case as I had tagged it earlier.) Compare the plain text you used with the form I used. To tag a user, you: Type the @ sign; then Start typing the name of the user; then Select the user's name from the dropdown list that is displayed while you're typing. When it works, you get the highlighted field, such as @Gianni Becattini rather than plain text @Gianni Becattini.

Staff Gabe Posted January 4 Staff Share Posted January 4 This fix was specifically for Apple Wide Colour. Are you using a different colour profile? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gianni Becattini Posted January 4 Author Share Posted January 4 No, or better, when AP goes mad, I change the Apple profile to Image P3 and all returns normal. With the new AP version, I didn't note the problem again, but it seems to be still present on old files with Apple color profile, which I created time ago on the Intel platform, where this problem is not present.
