Teeser Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Is there a fade tool, where you can fade the last action - form 0% -100%? (Like in Photoshop?) Also is there a history brush tool? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted December 20, 2016 Staff Share Posted December 20, 2016 Hi Tesser, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) 1. [EDITED] Go to menu Layer ▸ Fade. You can also change the opacity (fade) the effects/filters/adjustments directly in the respective dialogs (and also change their Blend modes there). Since they are all live (non-destructive) you can (re) adjust them whenever you need. 2. Yes, There's an "history" brush tool. It's called Undo Brush Tool in Affinity Photo and it lets you paint from a specific history step/state or from a saved snapshot.

picardmyhero Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Hi, I'm not sure that you answered the user's question, so let's make sure we're all on the same page. In Photoshop when your draw a line with the Brush Tool, the Edit menu suddenly has a new option called: "Fade xxx" where xxx = the context sensitive / name of the tool you just used. So in this example the Edit menu would now have: "Fade Brush tool..." This is VERY different from the standard opacity level of an Adjustment, Layer, Effect, etc. These are 2 completely different options. I use this dynamic / context sensitive Fade tool A LOT in photoshop. Is there any change this missing tool can be added? Thanks, Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted June 13, 2017 Staff Share Posted June 13, 2017 Hi Tim, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) You are right. I will correct the first post to avoid more confusion. Affinity Photo also has this: go to menu Layer ▸ Fade. Thanks for the heads up.

lavere Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Ha ha! I only just downloaded Affinity Photo yesterday and haven't had a lot of time on it yet, but.... I was a pro photographer and retoucher for years, and frankly am blown away at how powerful and how like my familiar Photoshop this app is. But I keep expecting some kind of let down, where I will lose some capability that I have grown accustomed to. The Fade "last action" option is something I use repeatedly in almost any session and with lots of different approaches. SO HAPPY to see it is available in Affinity too now. You guys absolutely ROCK! I am ditching every Adobe application I have. First they assassinated Flash on Apple's orders, then they began this whole cloud app approach... goodbye Adobe. I won't miss you!
