jpg strange layer path on opening image in photo


Recommended Posts

I received image from tech who did some image manipulation, I don't know what program they used but when I open jpg in Affinity Photo there are path layers and the image is incomplete, only seems to render one image layer they were working on to get affect.  see attached screenshot of how image appears in file manager view and how it appears in affinity photo with layers expanded. any ideas?

Try turning on some of the masking layers, the various Path 1, 2 3 etc. They appear to be clipping masks.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 
Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

why would jpg be storing that information

Because JPG files can contain clipping paths. And some applications (Photoshop, for one?) make use of that.

why would affinity interpret it

Because it's a legitimate part of JPG files, and because it's there.
