App crashes when trying to duplicate layer


Recommended Posts

When I use the Smart Selection tool with or without refining the selection, if I try to duplicate the selection, the app crashes. Selection also will not allow to cut image away from background. App was working perfectly with initial install but now it is not wanting to cooperate for the selection which was one of the main selling points for me to purchase the app

You did remember to rasterise any image layer before trying to do a pixel selection? The assistant is normally set up to do this for you but perhaps it was disabled. 

 

My dad always told me, a bad workman always blames their tools….

Just waiting for Ronny Pickering…..

Still, it shouldn’t crash but give an error message

Hi @titaniathorne

Welcome to the forum.

I've not been able to replicate this behaviour, could you first try to force restart your ipad. https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/ipad/ipad9955c007/ipados
If the issue persists then please could you advise of your system specifications and attach a screen recording of this issue in action. 

Could you also attach your crash report if present.
