kathe Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Hi, I am totally new with Affinity Photo - have now my 8th day of Free trial. I wonder why the Selection Brush Tool suddenly stopped working. I can not do anything with it. Hope this is the right forum to come with my silly problem. Many thanks for answering!

kathe Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 firstdefence dear I work with Mac desktop. I try to do a selection in a picture to use it as a part in another picture. The tool is dead, nothing happens if I use the icon on the toolbar. Shortcut W brings the other (fluid) selection tool active, but I don't want to use it. The right layer is choosed, of cource.

Staff MEB Posted February 20, 2019 Staff Share Posted February 20, 2019 Hi kathe, Welcome to Affinity Forums Make sure the Mode in the context toolbar for the Selection Brush Tool is set to Add and not Subtract. kathe 1 Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kathe Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Dear MEB That was a clever suggestion. That was it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
