Affinity Photo 'Focus Area' tool equivalent

[Sabapepe]

Hello, I am new to Affinity Photo (just installed the trial version today)

 

I want to select/isolate from a shallow depth of field photo, the in-focus subject of the photo from the out of focus background and copy and paste the selection into another image. To do this in Photoshop CC, I use the 'Focus Area' Tool.

 

Is there a 'Focus Area' Tool equivalent in Affinity Photo and how do I access it?

 

Thank you very much?

Hi Sabapepe,

Welcome to Affinity Forums

No, currently there's no similar tool/feature in Affinity Photo. You have to use the existing/regular selection tools to create the selection manually.

I'm moving this thread to the Feature Requests section.
