Adjustment Layers

[trevj1]

Hi I've Downloaded the the latest version of Affinity Photo 2.1, but when I try to use an adjustment layer the dialogue box won't stay open when I try to edit a pasted layer. I don't know if it's a bug or I'm missing something. I didn't have this problem in v2. Hope someone can help. trevj.

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums.

What OS do you use?

I'm not sure what you mean by editing a pasted layer? Can you provide a more detailed set of steps, and possibly a screenshot or screen recording showing the problem?

Possible means either an embedded file, linked file or an image layer.

Hi again I'm on windows 11 and its the exe version. When I copy and paste an image onto another main picture the adjustment layer dialogue box wont stay open so you can't make the adjustments.  trevj.

What specifically do you mean when you say you pasted an image onto "another main picture"? Is this "main picture" a layer on a different document & if so what kind of layer is it?

It might help if you gave us a screenshot of the application window, with the Layers panel included. Also, a sample .afphoto document might help.

If I understand your description, i do not have this problem, but on this system I have the MSIX version, not the EXE version.
