JulianVen Posted October 21 Share Posted October 21 I don't know if this has already been commented in another post (I searched and found nothing directly related with this). Currently (in Affinity Photo V2.5.5) when you create a curve with the pen tool and click on the [Selection] button the curve is lost. I think it would be interesting to have an option to preserve the curve. Most of the time it's necessary to re-use the curves to make new or alternative selections or to generate another type of effects. An easy way to preserve a curve would be by Alt + clicking the [Selection] button. Every time I need to make a selection from a curve, I have to go through the extra steps of duplicating the curve first, but I often forget, lose the curve and then have to recreate it.

"Select Menu > Selection from Layer (CTRL + Shift + O)" or "CTRL+click the Curve" Thank you @NotMyFault Quote • Windows 11 • Intel Core i7-10700 @ 2.90GHz • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER • 16GB RAM Learning Affinity Photo and Design after 27 years of Adobe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
