SushantPanda Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 I can select the brush from the left panel. Then when I drag on the object no red stroke appears. In the history it does show that I am using the inpainting brush After I release the pad, a progress bar appears but nothing happens in the picture! Ithis is the case with all the other brushes, they dont work cant select anytihng on the picture Have I messed up a setting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted April 14, 2016 Staff Share Posted April 14, 2016 Hi SushantPanda, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) Make sure you have the correct layer selected (not an adjustment layer or a mask) and that it's a Pixel layer. You can identify the type of layer looking at the label between parenthesis after the layer's name. If it's identified as an (Image) layer, right-click on it in the Layers panel and select Rasterise to convert it to a (Pixel) layer. You need to do this to be able to edit the layer at a pixel level (changing pixels), rather than only edit it globally (rotate skew, scale etc) which you can do with Image and Pixel layers layers. You can then use the brushes normally. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manu schwendener Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 As a test: open a picture you haven't worked on yet at all, use the inpainting brush as the first thing you do - still no red line? If in this case you _do_ get the inpainting brush to work, maybe this screenshot will help for the other cases: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/16678-inpainting-brush-tool/&p=75620 Quote manuschwendener.ch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
