Affinity-Inspiration Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 (edited) M2 Mac. Affinity Photo the latest build. #2437 I believe it should be removing the blacks and just leaving a colour map. However - I discovered by accident, that if I open Blend Options from the Gear Wheel, it immediately started working. Is it 'fixed' or not? I don't know. .... and it does the same in the Release version. Making adjustments in the Blend Options seems to kick start it. Edited May 8 by Affinity-Inspiration found a fix? part two NotMyFault 1 Quote iPad Mini 6. 256GB. My GoTo design platform. M2 Mac Mini. 24GB. LG 4K Monitor. + Samsung Monitor 2. Windows 10 Toshiba.

Staff stokerg Posted May 9 Staff Share Posted May 9 Hi @Affinity-Inspiration, Can you try going into Settings for Affinity and on the Performance section, set the Display to openGL and disable hardware acceleration and close Settings, restart Affinity when prompted and try this again, does it then work straight away?

Paul Mudditt Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Yes I again agree with Robert, something strange happening here but only in Photo, the other apps are ok.

Staff stokerg Posted May 9 Staff Share Posted May 9 Hi @Affinity-Inspirationand @Paul Mudditt, This appears to be a Metal/Hardware Acceleration issue and I know Designer uses of Metal/Hardware Acceleration in a different way to Photo. @Lee Dhas just got this logged with the Developers and I've added a report to it so the Affinity Info Bot can update here when it's been resolved Affinity-Inspiration 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff stokerg Posted May 9 Staff Share Posted May 9 Just now, Paul Mudditt said: Ok, I did try changing those settings but it didn't have any affect on my M1 but appreciate what you are saying. I'm on an Intel Mac and i believe @Lee Dis on an M1 Mac, but changing those settings did make it work straight away for both of us. I'll poke it some more when I have my M1 MacBook with me and update the report as needed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tried altering the settings here on my M2 Mac Mini and the HSV process worked. So it's not an ideal situation, but it's being fixed so I just thought I'd add that in to the discussion as well for clarity. Paul Mudditt 1 Quote iPad Mini 6. 256GB. My GoTo design platform.
