Irrgeist Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Hi, I just downloaded Affinity Photo (and also bought Affinity Designer), hopefully a good replacement for the horrible PP Pro and Inkscape :) I would like to know if it's possible to turn off the brush preview, I just need the outlines of my brush tool (its annoying that I can't see what's underneath my brush, especially while using my Cintiq 13HD with pressure controlled brush sizes). Using the pressure controlled brush always shows a full black circle, then, upon drawing with minimal pressure, I can draw a thin line, but upon releasing my pen, the preview for my brush tool is the whole size again (especially bad, when using biiiiig brushes). Another question: I tried to make a screenshot with the print key. How do I paste the result from the clipboard into Affinity Photo (as a new image). CTRL+P is disabled. Tried another photo software and it works just as expected. And finally: As of now the software works great with my Cintiq, unlike the other double P painting software ... awesome :) Regards, Irrgeist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello Irrgeist, welcome to the forum. Look for 'File > New from Clipboard'. That should do the trick :) d.

Go to 'Edit > Preferences... > User Interface' and clear the 'Show brush previews' checkbox. :) Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.4.1 (iPad 7th gen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
