Hi, as a fun exercise I created the Conway's Game of live in Affinity Photo.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway's_Game_of_Life

It uses black as background/dead cell and white as living cell.

 

The macro does all the steps for one iteration.

It has 2 simple steps:

  1. Use a custom filter with selected values to have "living" cells within certain grey values
  2. use a PT filter to select living cells and make them "white"

Ensure you have some spare batteries for the mouse (one click - one step)

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.

I use iPad screenshots and videos even in the Desktop section of the forum when I expect no relevant difference.
