Traveling Dragon Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Hello! I have a few photos I'm touching up that are larger than my cropped space. They are 16:9 while my crop is 1:1. Every time I make an edit to the photo like using the healing brush, it auto-rasterizes it and then crops the photo to the 1:1 canvas. I'd like to retain the entirety of the photo so I can readjust placement if needed. Lightroom allowed the original resolution to be untouched while making edits.

NotMyFault Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 The Assistent settings allow you to change the behavior so that Affinity does not rasterize images when you use brush strokes on them. a better way would be to work non-destructively: add a new pixel layer above the image layer set the repair tools to „current layer and below“ mode Quote Mac mini M1 A2348 | Windows 10 - AMD Ryzen 9 5900x - 32 GB RAM - Nvidia GTX 1080 LG34WK950U-W, calibrated to DCI-P3 with LG Calibration Studio / Spider 5 iPad Air Gen 5 (2022) A2589 Special interest into procedural texture filter, edit alpha channel, RGB/16 and RGB/32 color formats, stacking, finding root causes for misbehaving files, finding creative solutions for unsolvable tasks, finding bugs in Apps. My posts focus on technical aspects and leave out most of social grease like „maybe“, „in my opinion“, „I might be wrong“ etc. just add copy/paste all these softeners from this signature to make reading more comfortable for you. Otherwise I’m a fine person which respects you and everyone and wants to be respected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotMyFault Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Another way would be to use „rasterize“ (without trim) before starting to use a brush.
