All the Affinity brushes seem missing - there are just white dots where the icons should be, and just the same round brush for each one when you paint. Anyone else having this?

yes see it too

Yes. For me also. The individual configurations for each Brush in the default sets have gone for a walk someplace. And trying to reconfigure them in the Brush panel doesn't work either.

Ditto all brushes gone, tried CNTRL click launch to reset, no joy but removes white dots!  Ran previous version (1.1.2.23003) thinking I could export/import brushes but that version has also lost all brushes.

Hi,

 

The Macro Persona is gone until further notice I'm afraid - it was disabled anyway and we'll be lucky to get it in a state where we would be happy to ship it before we launch the app. Photo, Liquify, Develop and Export Persona have priority - once they are done, we will go back to working on Macro.

 

Thanks,

 

Andy.

It'd be great to have these release notes either on the page the update is downloaded from or in the download (either as a standalone read me text file or as a one-time overlay on launch).

I'm sure you've heard this before but, as it's my first post, you've designed and built a terrific application. My reasons for missing Photoshop are primarily habit based.

Hi Andy,

 

 

- Develop supports import profile as well as output.
 

 

Looking promising thanks, however the "camera profile" selection box is only displaying ICC profiles of classes "output" and "display" rather than classes "input" and "display". The output profile list looks OK though.

 

Going to see if I can hack my camera input profile to change its class for now to test the rest of the functionality,

 

Jonathan
