Paint Brush Keeps Crashing Photo 2


Recommended Posts

Whenever I apply a stroke with the paint brush in Affinity Photo 2, it slows down almost to a complete halt. Either that or it crashes the program completely. Even selecting the paint brush slows it down until the program is practically unusable. 

Erasing a stroke is just as slow, and has the highest likelihood of crashing. This wasn't an issue just a couple of months ago. Now it seems like I can't use the brush at all. 

Any troubleshooting available?

Welcome to the Affinity forums, @Kalzoner.

What are the pixel dimensions of your document? What is the width of your brush? What brush are you using?

Does this happen in other documents (especially new/empty ones), or with other brushes?

Are you using a mouse to draw, or some kind of tablet/stylus?

What OS do you use?
