ospear Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Hi, In Photoshop I used to be able to apply FX to a layer i.e a drop shadow then if I wanted to I could right click on the layer with the FX applied and select "Create Layer". This would create / convert the non destructive FX on that layer to pixels using clipping masks and layers. I found this feature really useful as I could remove parts of the drop shadow layer using masks giving me complete control of the FX. Can i request this feature to be added or do you have plans to add feature to Affinity Photo already? See screen shots attached as to where this feature is in Photoshop.

Toffelpuffer Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 As a workaround for applying fx to a (pixel) layer: 1. create a second layer 2. draw a single pixel on it 3. select both layers 4. from the Layer menu, select 'Merge Selected' (5. delete the pixel) For me the FX got applied onto the pixel layer...
