VolkerMB Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Hi there! My goal is to use a master page with empty picture frames on it. Later these frames are supposed to be filled on regular pages. However, some of them need some treatment after beeing imported, be it a levels adjustment or something else. And here my problem starts. Lets have a closer look: Create a new document with any number of pages and use a default master page. Go to the master page and create two empty picture frames. Apply this master to all of your regular pages. Go to one oft he regular pages, select one of the picture frames and click on „replace image“. Choose an appropriate image from your disk. Repeat this for the second picture frame. Now select one of the images and apply any adjustment filter, e.g. „Brightness + Contrast“. Once applied I can’t remove the adjustment any more! I can’t even tweak the settings any more or switch off the adjustment - no matter what layer I select in the layers panel. Am I doing something wrong? I’ve attached a file to demonstrate the problem. Perhaps it’s just me… Best, Volker problem-with-pic-frames.afpub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typo998 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Hi @VolkerMB I've opened your file and change the filter without any problem. Do you use the version 1.7.0.238? Do you reset Affinity to the default holding the CTRL key when you start it? You have to double click on the filter you created to change the value. Hope that you will help you!

Staff MEB Posted February 20, 2019 Staff Share Posted February 20, 2019 Hi VolkerMB, Right-click the Master layer (the parent master layer not the objects inside it) in the Layers panel and select Edit Detached - you should then be able to edit and delete the adjustments. Click Finish in the top bar that will appear when you are done. A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VolkerMB Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Hi MEB, thanks for checking and your advice. I assumed that images placed on regular pages in empty picture frames from the master page would also remain on the regular page. But now it seems that these are taken over into the master page (but appear only on this specific page). Probably the missing orange line next to the image in the layers panel deceived me (or my experience with PPX9). But this irritates me: Why can I first adjust the image without clicking on "Edit Detached", but not change it later? Best, Volker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
