small things that annoy me in production


Recommended Posts

In my current workflow I seem to struggle with Affinity Photo compared to Adobe Photoshop:

 

- pen tool selection and getting the path selection (CMD + click on layer?)

- colour in general isn't clear to me. It's very hard and unnatural to me to get and add the colour I want for usage.

- CMD or ALT + BACKSPACE for filling selection doesn't work

- ALT + clicking for selecting the pipet tool for a quick colour reference?

- select with the marquee tool and reposition its begin point while holding SPACEBAR?
 

 

ps: Some shortcuts are different in Adobe Photoshop and I struggle each time, I hope to get used to them at some point...

Dieter,

 

You may want to check out the help and search for shortcuts.

As a spoiler... :-)

 

P toggles between the pen and node tool

Path selection from a layer is CMD+click on the layer thumbnail not the label (not in help until next Monday) 

Try SHIFT+F5 to fill a selection

The Colour Picker shows colour values under the pipette.

Not sure we have a shortcut for redefining a marquee selection from its origin.  

 

Have a great weekend..
