HELP! Cannot "merge all windows" anymore


Recommended Posts

AffinityPhoto 1.6.6 no longer permits me to select Windows -> Merge all windows anymore. The option is in black (not greyed out), but when selecting it nothing happens. Tried quitting, tried restarting computer (AP 1.6.6 MacPro 2013 OS10.10.5). Accordingly, many of the tool options are no longer available either. How do I fix this? Try not to loose all prefs and macros again.

Hi Daniel, 

Have you selected Separated Mode? 

;)

I know how to toggle between separated and toggled mode. The issue is, that AP is stuck in Separated mode. I select Merge all Windows, but it will not do that. It just stays in Separated mode. Tried quit, open without image open and select Merge All Windows, with image open, but it just is stuck in Separated Mode.

 

I am seriously thinking about deleting AP and re-installing it fresh. Is that really what I need to do? Seems extreme.

Just figured it out. When Separated mode is checked, one does NOT select Merge all Windows to get to that mode, but you select Separated Mode again! That must be a bug.

Not a bug at all. It is a typical checkmark-type menu choice, one that serves as a status indicator and is either on (indicated by the check) or off (indicated by the lack of a check).
