Adjustment dialog hidden behind floating window


Recommended Posts

When editing an image in a floating window using APhoto 2.3.1 , clicking on any adjustment will display the adjustment dialog for only an instant before the dialog disappears behind the active window.

In APhoto 1.10.6, the dialog opens on top of the active floating window and stays there as I expect it should.

I couldn't find this reported previously, yet it is such an obvious bug that I can't believe it hasn't been reported before. Then again, this is the first time I have used floating windows for editing multiple photos in the 6 years I've been using APhoto. Perhaps others don't use floating windows much either.

Affinity Photo 2.4.2 (MSI) and 1.10.6; Affinity Publisher 2.4.2 (MSI) and 1.10.6. Windows 10 Home x64 version 22H2.

For what it is worth I am not seeing this with Mac OS 12.7.2

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 
Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear.

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

I don't use Floating document windows very much, either. But I can confirm that on Windows I see the same behavior. An Adjustment panel appears briefly and then quickly hides behind the Floating document window, in both Photo 2.3.1 and 2.4.0.2222 Beta.

The issue "[Win] Adjustment windows pop up behind floated documents instead of above." (REF: AF-335) has been fixed by the developers in internal build "2.4.0.2279".
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.
