View Pasteboard

It would be very handy to be able to place items on the pasteboard when working on photo comps.

I often create palates and swatches to draw from.

Also nice to have an image for reference sitting next to work space.

Like most image editing software, Affinity Photo doesn’t have a pasteboard. If you want a ‘scratch’ area around your photo, you can enlarge the canvas while you’re working on it and then shrink it back down again afterwards.

Thanks Alfred

I understand this is how other apps like Photoshop work, but Affinity Photo is better than just another Photoshop.

I just think it would be handy as a switchable view option like we have in Designer.

There is a lot of wasted real estate on screen, especially when working on a portrait design, that would be useful for reference materials.
