Image streak effect in Affinity Photo


Recommended Posts

Hi @oO5Dynasty,

Welcome to the forums.

It's the exact same process. 

You make a marquee selection of your pixels, duplicate the selection (Layer > Duplicate). Select the new layer in the layer panel, switch to move tool ( v ) and stretch the pixel out. 

Thanks,

Gabe. 

That helped me out a lot, thank you very much.

This doesn't work as expected. When using the Move Tool on a Column/Row Marquee Selection, AD applies a transparent gradient/feather to the selected column/row. PS doesn't do this when using the Free Transform tool on the Column/Row Marquee Selection. Why is this?

The instructions are for Affinity Photo not Designer.

It doesn't work the same in both AP and AD. In AD you have to go to the Pixel Personal first in order to have access to the Column/Row Marquee tool. 

Interesting enough, I found a tut for GIMP and it does the exact same thing. Their instructions use the Scale tool but when pulling the single pixel column wide via the Scale tool it also creates a transparent, gradient box.

Attached screenshot after performing the following steps:

  1. Imported image from Unsplash
  2. Duplicate the Background layer and select new layer
  3. Column Marquee on the new layer in the middle of her eye
  4. Press CMD-J to duplicate the new Column Marquee as new Pixel layer
  5. Press CMD-D to remove the marquee
  6. Press V to activate the Move Tool
  7. Drag left to stretch the new Pixel layer

 

As others have reported in other threads, the resulting stretched Pixel layer is transparent and has a gradient that feathers to both left and right edges.
