mnsac5000 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 In photoshop, you can take a photo image and apply it into a layer mask, then adjust it to create the desired tshirt graphic worn texture look. (see images) Can this be done in Affinity Photo? I have been playing around with the masks and haven't yet figured it out. Thanks for the help.

Staff MEB Posted August 1, 2017 Staff Share Posted August 1, 2017 Hi mnsac5000, Welcome to Affinity Forums Select the texture layer in the Layers panel, then go to menu Layer ▸ Rasterise To Mask to convert it to a mask. If you need to invert the mask, select it in the Layers panel then go to menu Layer ▸ Invert. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toltec Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 There is another interesting technique Photo offers. Slightly more complicated but lots of control over the result. Remove the white from the texture by going Filter > Layers > Remove White Paper. Change the Layer Blend Mode to Erase. All the black in the texture will now erase the pixels in the image layer. It looks initially the same as a mask but you have full opacity control which selectively applies the "erasing". Quote Windows PCs. Photo and Designer, latest non-beta versions.
