Bruise71 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Hi, I am new to affinity, and whenever I choose an adjustment such as curves, the curves adjustment screen takes up a lot of computer screen. (See attached) Can I decrease the size if this as it impedes some photos I am working on. Also, I notice that some people have an affinity logo instead of "Affinity Photo Beta" next to file at the top of the screen. Can you tell me how to change this to the logo? Thanks.

Ron P. Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 I'm not aware of anyway to resize the Curves dialog window. We can only move it to the side out of the way. The only way to get the official release logo is to run the official release version. Quote Affinity Photo 2.4..; Affinity Designer 2.4..; Affinity Publisher 2.4..; Affinity2 Beta versions.

Bruise71 Posted February 8, 2019 Author Share Posted February 8, 2019 Thanks Ron, I thought they may have been the case with the dialog window. I'm not sure what you mean by the official release version. Are you saying the first ever affinity software brought to the market? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Rostron Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 If you are using the Affinity Customer Beta (1.7), then you must have an official release version, probably 1.6. If you don't, then how did you get a Customer Beta? John Quote Windows 10, Affinity Photo 1.10.5 Designer 1.10.5 and Publisher 1.10.5 (mainly Photo), now ex-Adobe CC CPU: AMD A6-3670.

Can you tell me how to change this to the logo? Windows puts a copy of the application icon on the top left, next to the main menu (File, Edit, ...). MacOS puts the application name there. I don't know if you can change that, but I suspect not. As you're running Affinity Photo Beta, that's the name you see (and its logo is below, in the Affinity Persona icons). If you were actively using Affinity Photo (not beta) you'd just see Affinity Photo in that field in the MacOS menus.

Not a big deal, it just looks better in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't, then how did you get a Customer Beta? John Bruise71 didn't answer this question. So as an Admin to Corel's Web forum, I decided to go see whom may be providing a link directly to the Beta, AND if they advise a product key is required. I did locate a website download82.com that does just that. I have not tried downloading and installing it from there, don't want to catch a virus. I did read a couple of comments, and while it's being advertised on that website as Free-Shareware, when they tried to install it, it does ask for a key.

I don't think that "they" is Serif, though. I think it's Apple that controls what displays there. But as I'm not a Mac user, I can't say for sure.
