Przemysław 34 Posted December 16, 2018 Hi, I have cropped a photo to size. I have rasterised the layer, but when I'm using inpainting brush, it keeps taking data from outside the canvas, but as far as I know, it shouldn't, as the layer has been rasterised. The inpainting tool behaves as the layer has not been rasterised. Am I doing something wrong? APhoto Beta 1.7.0.188 I attach sample screenshots when I'm trying to inpaint building on the top right. pilcrow.euW10, i5 2.4GHz, 8GB RAM, nVidia GeForce 840A, Wacom Intuos + iPad Pro 2018 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haakoo 173 Posted December 16, 2018 That much doesn't work that well Try this: See video below,take a good look at the select alpha range and grow/shrink part at 1.36 min This will work also on a cut out part. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Win10(1809)Home / APhoto / ADesigner / APublisher / latest (beta) versions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Przemysław 34 Posted December 16, 2018 So you think the area is too big? I have completely erased the area after rasterising and then tried to inpaint, but it brings back the data from outside anyway (which should not exist in the document anymore as it's been rasterised). I'm confused. pilcrow.euW10, i5 2.4GHz, 8GB RAM, nVidia GeForce 840A, Wacom Intuos + iPad Pro 2018 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haakoo 173 Posted December 16, 2018 Better use the inpaint function from Menu>edit instead of the inpaint brush. For that part I'd rather use the clonetool,selecting from the left part of the picture Rasterize and then tidying up with the inpaint brush. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Win10(1809)Home / APhoto / ADesigner / APublisher / latest (beta) versions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Przemysław 34 Posted December 16, 2018 For some reason the inpaint function in Menu>Edit is always greyed-out (it's the same tool anyway?) and the keyboard shortcut Alt+Backspace doesn't work. The way around is to inpaint on a new pixel layer with Current Layer & Below function turned on. That works OK (but still the function in Menu is greyed-out and shortcut doesn't work). Still, I think it's a bug and it's not how inpaint tool should work (according to James' tutorials), because it doesn't recognise that a current layer has been rasterised - keeps getting information from outside the canvas. Also inpaint option in Menu>Edit is always greyed out and shortcut Alt+Backspace doesn't work. pilcrow.euW10, i5 2.4GHz, 8GB RAM, nVidia GeForce 840A, Wacom Intuos + iPad Pro 2018 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rick G 240 Posted December 16, 2018 The direct answer is that rasterizing no longer gets rid of the area outside of the canvas and i a know issue that will be fixed in the next beta. I have had the same issue with other tools and that was the answer Unlock the layer after rasterizing and move it around, you will see that the data is still there 1 Przemysław reacted to this Affinity Designer 1.6.5 & beta 1.7.0.243 Affinity Photo 1.6.5, beta 1.7.0.243 Affinity Publisher 1.7.0.238 Windows 10 Pro 64-bit 1709 CPU Intel Core i7 4770 @ 3.40GHz Haswell 22nm Technology RAM 32.0 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 798 MHz (11-11-11-28) Motherboard Gigabyte Technology Co.

I am not being difficult, I just don't get it as rasterizing was working correctly and matching wnat other MAINLINE photo editors are doing?

Chris B 1,052 Posted December 17, 2018 I will be happy to find out from the developers for you but I would guess that we want to give the users a choice as to what is deleted when they rasterise a layer. 1 Rick G reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you for looking into it. It just behaves differently than in other programs (or in 1.6.5.123) and not as it's mentioned in one or two tutorials made by James. I'm afraid it may cause problems with other tools such as Create Colour Palete from Document.

At you low priority convenience. I have found another cheesy change. I tyles some text then duplicated it via CONGROL J and shrunk it and moved it. The next Control J shrunk it and moved it in the same pastern as if I had used the Transform panel. Since I was working on a cheesy Meme, that was perfect but for the other 99.99% of the time that would have been horrendous ... right up there with copying and having the paste appear out there in the cabbage patch edit: Some of these toybox ideas would be great if they could be turned on and off via a check box Edited December 17, 2018 by Rick G I had another stroke of brilliance Affinity Designer 1.6.5 & beta 1.7.0.243 Affinity Photo 1.6.5, beta 1.7.0.243 Affinity Publisher 1.7.0.238 Windows 10 Pro 64-bit 1709 CPU Intel Core i7 4770 @ 3.40GHz Haswell 22nm Technology RAM 32.0 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 798 MHz (11-11-11-28) Motherboard Gigabyte Technology Co.

TEcHNOpls 64 Posted December 17, 2018 AFAIK that ctrl+j behaviour is there for a long time.

Alfred 3,231 Posted December 17, 2018 7 minutes ago, Rick G said: Control J has always duplicated the item in place or am I missing something? You’re missing something, Rick! Ctrl+J has always reapplied any transformations, so if you create a shape and duplicate it the new copy will be an ‘in place’ duplicate, but if you then move, resize and/or rotate that copy the next duplicate will also be moved, resized and/or rotated.

Odd. It will recreate whatever changes were made in place except rotation. Then it adds the rotation angles up replicating the duplications into a circle. I had similar the other day when I shrunk some text and each control J shrunk it further and moved the duplication down and to to the right, replication what I had done with the first duplication Affinity Designer 1.6.5 & beta 1.7.0.243 Affinity Photo 1.6.5, beta 1.7.0.243 Affinity Publisher 1.7.0.238 Windows 10 Pro 64-bit 1709 CPU Intel Core i7 4770 @ 3.40GHz Haswell 22nm Technology RAM 32.0 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 798 MHz (11-11-11-28) Motherboard Gigabyte Technology Co.
