Andrew Page Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 I have been using photo editing software, on a casual basis, for many years and I tend to assume I'll be able to find my way around. But on Affinity I really can't. I sit at my computer and feel stupid because i have no idea what to do. My latest problem was trying to use the blemish repair tool (following from an HDR merge) and nothing happened at all. I had no idea what to do, but worked around it in some different way.

Welcome to the forum Andrew, ask away with questions there is always someone who can help, there are no dumb questions, all we ask is that you try to explain your problem in detail and add a few screenshots if relevant. Its also a good Idea to mention which Operating System you are using too. It might also be worth your while watching a few videos, see my sig for links. Lets get you up to speed eh!

DM1 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 I find many of my answers as to how to find or apply a tool are answered in Affinity Photos built in Help file. The forum is another great source of advice. Quote M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).

tttulio Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I have the same problem, using the standard language of Graphic User Interface in Affinity Photo takes me nowhere, looking at the help file or help videos on youtube tells us how it should work, but back on the software, it doesn't. Example, copy a new layer into a document and try to resize it, just like a did a million times in Photoshop, it doesn't work, try to click on the corner dot, and ... nope, it doesn't select the point, it deselects the layer and keep trying again for 5 minutes, give up, try resizing by using the numerical box, it works. Ok, we are good let me just crop this... hum, line up the crop tool at the top left, go move the lower line and It Moves the crop box up!!! WHY? Again the corner point doesn't work, I give up.
