I 'm not convinced that you are mask-nesting (not clip-nesting) the Curves adjustment in the Rectangle.

@Lonely Tears, if this is still not clear to you maybe watching the Affinity Photo - Clipping vs Masking video tutorial will help.

Thanks, I will give that a look. Masks and such are still very confusing to me.

My document now resembles owens but the curve is still only adding black pixels.

Mine?

Oh, I got it I think. This is so confusing and will take some getting used to. Thanks!

Another dummy question. I'm redrawing a cloud and have the fill option ticked, but it leaves out the center?

Is this option perhaps called something else for Affinity Photo?

The option seems to be missing from Affinity Photo. I can copy a ‘winding’ filled curve from Affinity Designer and paste it into APh, but I can’t ‘Paste Style’ to apply the winding attribute to another curve.

That's correct. Coverage map is not supposed to affect a raster image (a Pixel object or Image object). It adjusts the antialiasing of the edges of vector objects when they are being rasterised.

Weird. In other image editors with advanced layer blending options the simple solution in this case is just to target the gray channel and slide the gray top slider to the left to remove the anti-aliased edge pixels until the edges become aliased. Quick and easy. But in Photo the Blend options work differently, and won't allow me to do this.

I am somewhat surprised (not in a good way!) that this won't work in Photo. A gray channel target ought to be added in Photo too.

What specifically do you mean by "gray channel"?
