Cannot make the "Command Hide" keyboard shortcut work within Affinity Photo


Recommended Posts

Hi, I have tried unsuccessfully to use the "command + hide" to hide a selection within my affinity photo window and all I get is that the affinity application itself hides. I have tried reprogramming the command for hiding within affinity with other options but it does not work. I have even tried to reprogram the OS X command hide shortcut so it does not mean hide and I still can't make it work within affinity. I happen to use a hispanic keyboard and I have tried switching to an English keyboard layout and it doesn't work. Am I missing something? All I want to do is find a way to create a keyboard shortcut for hiding the current selection (for example, the selection brush tool within affinity when I need to). Any suggestions??

This has already been discussed in the Marching Ants topic.

 

Short answer: there is no provision currently in Affinity to hide the selection.

cmd+h selects the move tool.

CMD+H hides the app. H by itself selects the Pan (Hand) tool.
