Toggle view of adjustments


Recommended Posts

It would be great to be able to quickly toggle view of adjustments on/off. In Photoshop, you can this by showing or hiding adjustment layers (or whatever). In Affinity Photo Beta, Adjustments are separate from Layers, and you have to switch palettes to toggle view. A simple n'off switch in the adjustment dialogue, or in the panel where its name resides, would be very helpful.

Aperture has a great keyboard toggle to show you the Master file, without any adjustments. It's a GREAT feature, just press m to turn it on, or off. it's a toggle

A simple click on the History panel will take you back to the start state of the image so you don't have to worry about the adjustment layers.

Mike, although that's useful in some scenarios, it's not enough... we need a way to quickly toggle ALL FX and Adjustments on and off, not just Undo the last changes to said FX or Adjustments...

Hi cadobir,

Welcome to Affinity Forums :)

You can quickly show/hide adjustments from the Layers panel. All adjustments have its own layer and can be turned on/off through its own checkbox. If you have attached an adjustment to a regular layer you can still access it clicking on the arrow on the left of the layer to expand its contents.

 

Also, you don't need to have the Adjustments panel visible. You can add and control all of them through the Layers panel (third icon counting from the left, on the bottom of Layers panel)

This is fine for adjustments... but how about filters? For instance I'd like to sharpen something and then change my mind? This may be the case for making all filters into layers as well.... :)
