Clicking "Selection Brush Tool" crashes Affinity Photo


Recommended Posts

In Affinity Photo, every time I click "Selection Brush Tool", I get apples spinnign wheel of death, Affinity crashes.

 

Using:

- MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2019)

- 2.3 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i9

- 32 GB 2400 MHz DDR4

- Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB

 

Tried:

- Restarting computer

- Closing every other programme running

- Unticked "Hardware Acceleration" in Performance Preferences

- Deleting then reinstalling Affinity Photo

 

I am interested to know which of my resolution methods are stupid or worthwhile for bug fixing in future.

 

Thankyou.

Hi @R Seventeen,
Welcome to Affinity Forums :)
Is it crashing when you are working with a specific file, or crashes with any file (even a blank document)?
If you can reproduce the crash, please do so, then in the crash report window (the last screenshot right above this post) press Alt and drag the icon from the crash report title bar to the desktop to generate a copy of the crash report. Please attach the crash report file to your reply. Thanks.

I have the same issue. I create a new file, place one image, click selection brush tool - all freezes (I am using also on Macbook Pro 2021). Including new files.

This renders Affinity Photo unusable. Any ideas what to do?
