Affinity iPad Student Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 I attached photo. How? Trying to make photo and it’s canvas appear as if manifesting from the ethereal plane into our existence. Thus, no edges at all, kind of like a *phasing* into reality look.

Paul Mudditt Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 I guess it depends on the background you want, if it’s fade to black have you just tried using a soft texture brush all around the edges? Or you could use a gradient tool but I had more success with a paint brush. Depends on the effect you are after in you minds eye.

Alfred Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 1. In the Selection Persona, choose the Rectangular Marquee Tool. 2. Set the amount of feathering you want. 3. Drag out a selection inside the pixel layer. 4. In the Pixel Persona, duplicate the selected region. 5. Hide the original pixel layer.

There doesn’t seem to be a brush called soft brush.

I think Paul simply meant any brush that doesn’t have a hard edge.

Affinity iPad Student Posted March 25, 2018 Author Share Posted March 25, 2018 Thank you. I’m registering what you are saying as, bring down the hard edge of the brush. I tried doing the technique you mentioned @Alfred unfortunately, I must be doing something, I still get the picture frame edges of the canvas itself showing. Stull working on on this one.

Assuming you haven't neglected to hide the original pixel layer at step 5, you can't have begun with a pixel layer (as assumed at step 3). If you used a 'Place' command (accessed via the Commands menu) you will have an 'Image' layer, not a 'Pixel' layer, and you will need to rasterize it before you can work on it at the pixel level (e.g. to duplicate selected pixels rather than the entire layer). Go to the Commands menu and choose 'Rasterize > Rasterize' to perform the required conversion.
