I am trying to "Acquire Image" in Affinity Photo for Mac, but I just get this screen. How do I change it back to the correct screen, in which I mistakenly clicked the wrong item in Acquire Image? This has most likely been covered before, but I haven't had any success locating this topic. Thanks in advance!Screenshot2025-01-09at4_46_38PM.png.db82398251be261fa567581574c61a85.thumb.png.24696ac4d84357adaf74a4f8700b8261.png

Hi @Captain Maniac,

Press 'Show Details' at the bottom right hand corner. It should then run an overview scan and preview the contents of the scanner bed, and then press ‘Scan’ to select the area of the image you wish to scan into the app.

However, I would advise using the default 'Image capture' app on MacOS which should save the scanned contents to a JPEG file, and then open this JPEG in Affinity Photo after, as these is a known issue with Image artefact/corrupted scan results in app with certain scanners.
