sonicvision Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 UPDATED: Solved, tool was automatically on side bar, had to add from 'Customize Tools' I heard about the new Machine Learning Object / Subject Selection today so promptly updated all the apps. Dove into Photo, installed the Machine Learning but no tool for the Object Selection appeared. Tried restarting Photo and restarting computer with no difference. Then opened Designer. No Object Selection there (maybe by design) then tried Publisher and, clicking on the Photo tab, the new Object Selection tool is there and working (as far as I tried it quickly so far). Why is it not showing up in the stand alone Photo? Also, the "Subject Selection" under Select menu in Photo didn't work at all but in Publisher, Photo tab, it does, but not well, yet. It picked things that were clearly not the main subject. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Affinity-Inspiration Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 I just tried it in Publisher. Selected an object, but when I tried to copy and paste it it crashed the app. M2 Mac Mini. Sequoia.

So rasterising is the key. Perhaps. Although actually Crashing if it gets it wrong is a bit drastic. Quote iPad Mini 6. 256GB. My GoTo design platform. M2 Mac Mini. 24GB.

Oh, and not actually in Publisher unless you select the Photo persona... Quote iPad Mini 6. 256GB. My GoTo design platform. M2 Mac Mini. 24GB. LG 4K Monitor. + Samsung Monitor 2. Windows 10 Toshiba.

Possibly you have modified your Tools layout in Photo, but didn't do that in the Photo Persona of Publisher? If you have modified the Tools layout (View > Customize Tools) perhaps they don't add the Tool automatically to avoid disrupting your layout. sonicvision 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

It picked things that were clearly not the main subject. it just showed up naturally in Publisher -> Photo, an I had to download the engine that goes with it. It then worked. When I went to stand alone Photo it was there and worked. Although I’m not sure what use it is. I’ll reserve judgement on that. Quote iPad Mini 6. 256GB. My GoTo design platform. M2 Mac Mini. 24GB.

jos Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 Now, that’s a nice surprise! I didn’t expected that, did a quick test and it works nice for a beta. Can’t wait to see it grow in quality! sonicvision 1 Quote Blog: https://jostakesphotos.blogspot.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I don't recall modifying my Tools layout, the tool was in the Customize Tools option. Thanks again, I should have thought of that.
