Puck Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 Hi there, when I open Gaussian Blur a second time, "Preserve Alpha" has disappeared. (see Video) It also happens in Retail version 2.1.1 Best regards Puck Bildschirmaufnahme 2023-08-06 um 10.42.34.mov Quote iMac 2017, 16 GB RAM, Intel Iris Plus Graphics 640 1536 MB, MacOS Ventura 13.6.6 (22G630) - Affinity V2-Universallizenz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron P. Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 I'm not able to replicate this on Windows. So possibly a Mac issue?

lepr Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 In case a Mac user reading this thread wishes to work around the bug: click the live filter's thumbnail an additional two times to make the Preserve Alpha box appear. j3rry 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's a workaround ... and it doesn't work (at least not for me). Photo Beta 2.2.1931 and Retail version 2.1.1 - Sorry.

Hangman Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 This affects all Live Filters with a Preserve Alpha option as mentioned above both in the Retail Version 2.1.1 and the current Beta 2.2.0 (1931).

Staff Affinity Info Bot Posted October 18, 2023 Staff Share Posted October 18, 2023 The issue "[macOS] Preserve Alpha box and label vanishes after calling dialog a 2nd time" (REF: AF-61) has been fixed by the developers in internal build "2.3.0.2083". This fix should soon be available as a customer beta and is planned for inclusion in the next customer release. Customer beta builds are announced here and you can participate by following these instructions. If you still experience this problem once you are using that build version (or later) please reply to this thread including @Serif Info Bot to notify us.
