TorstenSven Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Hey all! I am having a problem with a shuriken I designed. I made a star and omitted sections by masking with other shapes. The only problem is that the whole outline is rendered with the image when I try to export. How can I be rid of those lines so that only the shuriken is rendered, not the whole star in outline form?

Staff MEB Posted April 20, 2016 Staff Share Posted April 20, 2016 Hi TorstenSven, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) Go to Affinity Photo/Designer ▸ Preferences, Performance tab and check Use precise clipping.

TorstenSven Posted April 20, 2016 Author Share Posted April 20, 2016 Thanks MEB! I did that, and even restarted the application. It still exports with a faint outline in black outlining the hidden portions of the star. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TorstenSven Posted April 20, 2016 Author Share Posted April 20, 2016 Thanks! It's uploaded. I misread the instructions though... The name is Shuriken w/Knob, but I can upload again if you'd like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted April 20, 2016 Staff Share Posted April 20, 2016 Thanks for the files TorstenSven. There's a rendering issue with objects placed inside groups with the Blend mode set to Erase. I'm logging this to be looked at. Meanwhile to fix your design do the following: move/drag all objects that are inside groups to the Star layer in the Layers panel (so no more groups), then select all objects and set their Blend mode to Erase and delete the empty groups. I've sent you a PM with a link to the file with those changes applied.
