What happened to my photos in affinity pub? Object filter?


Recommended Posts

I am not sure what I did unwittingly but I am not sure what happened to the photographs on the attached page.  It looks like an object style got applied? If so, I am not sure how to undo it.  If I replace the photo it still looks the same.  And my history does not have anything related noted because it must have happened during another working session.  What do I do other than to delete the frames and start over? Thanks.  (Affinity Pub 1 on a Mac)

It might help to examine the Layers panel, and to show us a screenshot of it.

The kinds of things you've mentioned don't just spontaneously happen on their own, though. Perhaps you've had different versions of the project, and have opened the wrong one?

There was a recolor adjustment. (…)  I unchecked it and now it is fine.

Apart from that the displayed stripe pattern wouldn't be caused by a Recolour adjustment (unless there was an additional layer creating stripes). This look reminds me rather to a hardware issue (while I think in that case it would occur on the entire screen, possibly affecting all layout items and the interface).

Have you enabled hardware acceleration in Affinity Settings > Performance?

I can only guess that there is a fill of some sort applied to the Picutre Frames. Try replacing one with a new, no stroke no fill applied Picture Frame.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

Note that the pink pattern occurs on top of the images (which would require manipulation to the nested images, too, e.g. via blend mode) and on the frame borders, too, + that also text is affected, including the page number (which is quite likely on a master page).
