Masking Detail Refinement + Your Sharpening Workflow

[dwhh]

Hi there,

 

I love using Affinity photo, but I am missing one point with Details Refinement.

In Lightroom it is possible to press the ALT-key while changing the masking slider. This gives you a masking / kind of high pass view of the sharpening that is applyed.

 

I can't find a method to do that in Affinity Photo.

Is that function missing or am I missing something?

 

Any plans for a feature like that.

 

Besides that, what's your workflow with Detail Refinement (RAW development)? What values are you set fixed, what is variable afterwards? What are your indications for sharpening the image appropriately?

Any tips are highly appreciated!

 

Thanks and best,

David

Hi Dwhh,

 

Welcome to the forums

 

There is a way to do this in Affinity but it might be a little different to the way your other apps might have done this. Please see the below video it should show what you are looking for!
