ClipStudio's reference layer function in Photo?


Recommended Posts

ClipStudio has a neat function that let's you define a layer as a reference layer. This allows you, for example, to select flat color areas on that reference layer while being another layer. It saves a lot of time (of switching back and forth between layers).

Is there a similar function or way to get that in Affinity Photo?

Unfortunately not.

Affinity has the similar concept of „global sources“, but only for tools like clone, patch.

But you may open additional views to show one file in 2 windows.

Special interest into procedural texture filter, edit alpha channel, RGB/16 and RGB/32 color formats, stacking, finding root causes for misbehaving files, finding creative solutions for unsolvable tasks, finding bugs in Apps.
