hunterae Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 Pretty much whenever I attempt to use Brushes in pixel mode, I get major major lag in performance, like 5 or more seconds sometimes, between when I draw and when the results appear on the screen. The problem seems to be more severe when using custom brushes, or the default included brushes when the width is increased to very large. I also get performance issues when I switch the blend mode from "Normal" to something like "Multiply". As far as I know, I have a pretty good computer - I've attached a few screenshots of the specs. I've also tried changing the "Performance" configurations but have yet to improve this lag. I've also tried closing running processes and applications. Am I missing something here. My computer is super fast with regards to software development but I'm new to doing graphics related things so I'm uncertain if there's hardware that I'm lacking. Thanks, Andrew Quote
R C-R Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 Am I correct in assuming you are running two external 1920X1080 px displays with your MBP? If so, what happens if at least the main workspace window is moved to the MBP's built-in display and/or you move everything to it & disconnect your external displays?

hunterae Posted June 20, 2018 Author Posted June 20, 2018 Hi, yes, I am using two external monitors (at work); however, I have the identical issue at home when I am just using the laptop screen. Quote
Staff Gabe Posted June 21, 2018 Staff Posted June 21, 2018 Hi @hunterae, Welcome to the forums. What's the size of the document and the size of the brush ( in PX ) Thanks, Gabe. Quote
Asheesh Posted May 8, 2020 Posted May 8, 2020 I had the same problem, but when I reset my affinity design settings, that pixel brush thing was solved. To reset you setting, keep pressing ctrl or command key(on mac) while opening the software. Then select all the boxes and continue.
