Each Affinity app includes built-in help. I suggest reading the first two sections, "Introduction," & "Getting Started."

All 3 1.10.8, & all 3 V2.4.1 Mac apps; 2020 iMac 27"; 3.8GHz i7, Radeon Pro 5700, 32GB RAM; macOS 10.15.7
Affinity Photo

I've created some explanations regarding basic naming/ operations here 

and further reading/ really getting into affinity

please reply in that thread if you find something missing/ not easy to grasp 

 

there are links to official and unofficial video tutorials where apropriate in both of them so you should quickly find your way around

here is a recent thread about editing in Capture One 

https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/46203-editing-with-affinity-photo-from-capture-one-pro-10/#comment-231232

 

additionally you can check out round tripping using layered TIFFs to store the Affinity Layer information.

https://affinity.help/photo/English.lproj/pages/Sharing/export.html

 

For TIFF file formats:

  • Save Affinity Layers—Layers in the document are preserved in the exported TIFF image.

 

cheers

I'm studying & it looks like I have to have the aero theme in win 7. I don't think I have it & instructions sound complicated. can I use Affinity without Aero? Thank you.
