Brushes and Assets locked in Affinity 2


Recommended Posts

I've just moved up to Affinity Photo 2, also purchased a couple of add-ons at the same time. All the default brushes and the new assets and brushes I've bought are locked (have a little chain icon next to them). I imported my old brushes and assets from v1. and they are all fine.

Please can you tell me how to unlock them?

The icon represents a "link" as opposed to a lock.

The "link" icon indicates that those brush categories are "linked" between all Affinity applications (so if you make changes to a brush in, for example, Affinity Photo, your changes will be reflected in Affinity Designer and Affinity Publisher).

This behaviour was introduced in v2.
