Leela747 Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Hi, I'm new to the Affinity Photo desktop app (and any photo editing app to be honest!) and not very technically savvy at all so apologies in advance! Recently I noticed the Inpainting Tool is missing from the vertical menu bar on the left and I can't seem to find it anywhere. I find this tool invaluable and am hoping for pointers on how to relocate it or perhaps how to 'reboot' the app back to factory settings, so to speak. Any suggestions/advice would be much appreciated. Again, I must remind you I'm an idiot so will need to be spoken to as such!! :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To get the fly-out @HVDB Photography shows in his reply, you can either click on that tiny little triangle or just click & hold on the icon & after a short delay the fly-out will open. You can also customize the tool panel by choosing "Customize Tools ..." (not "Customize Toolbar") on the View menu, so for example you could add the Inpainting tool to some location in the panel not shared by any other tool.

I used the 'Customise Tools' option to re-add the Inpainting tool to the panel. Appreciate you and @HVDB Photography taking the time to reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
