srg Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 I believe this a bug since it annoys me very much. When I use a brush to go over e mask and I move the mouse with the released button of the mouse to reposition it (I use a Logitech MX Master 3, the circle around the brush disappears. In order to see the circle again the mouse has to be clicked and moved. So if the mouse is over an already passed area, I see nothing that can tell where the brush is. This is annoying since the circle indicates the edges of the brush and not having them allows for bad positioning of the brush itself.

Not the same few bot-like users replying to everything, a wider representation of users, fewer fanboys, more qualified users. In short, better! 3) I was here to report bugs and submit improvement requests for professional work professionally in a large setup and to bring a lot of knowledge from the world, i.e. professional product development, web- and software development, usability, user experience design and accessibility. I actually know what I am talking about! BUT! We are phasing out Designer and Affinity in 2022 Q1 - and replacing it with feature complete and algorithmically competent alternatives. Publisher is unsuitable for serious use, and was never adopted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killzen Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 this happens to me while using a mouse in Windows 10, Affinity Photo V2. the circle denoting size of brush disappears and only the cross hairs are left leaving me unable to determine the size of the area being painted etc. Any fixes?

Staff MEB Posted December 8, 2022 Staff Share Posted December 8, 2022 Hi @srg, It should also display the circle again if you zoom in/out. This however was already fixed in Photo Beta 2.0.3.3 which you can download from here.
