stznsa Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I am new to any type of photo editing and I bought Affinity Photo but I can't seem to figure it out. I've watched some of the basic tutorials but they even seem advanced. I can't even figure out how to get a pic from iPhotos to the app. Any help;p would be appreciated....

JFisher Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Hi stznsaWelcome to the forums! :)You can open an image from Photo's via the Media Browser (View > Media Browser)The video's are probably the best way to learn the app's features, you also have a lot of in built help and you can always ask a question here on the support forums should you need any help :)J stznsa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uuiop Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Hi stznsa It may help to use the keyboard spacebar to pause the tutorial videos, and the progress slider to move forward or back a bit to focus on a section of the soundtrack or to see which menus, layers, masks etc. are being clicked on. The tutorials are excellent, but sometimes studying small moments will bring wonderful enlightenment. These Aahh! moments are vital to progress. stznsa and JFisher 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stznsa Posted January 11, 2016 Author Share Posted January 11, 2016 So would I open Affinity then go to Media Browser (View > Media Browser) to get the pic to affinity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFisher Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Hi stznsa,Yes that would be if you wish to open an image from the Photo's app. if you want to open an image from any where else just use File > Open :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
