1.7.112 - Brightness/contrast issue on HDR images

[Alexander Sh 2]

Hi,

Caught brightness/contrast layer issue on hdr images.

Steps to reproduce issue:

1. Open properly exposed raw image as 32bit linear hdr without curve applied
2. Add exposure layer.
3. Add brightness/contrast layer with default adjustments above exposure layer.
4. Select exposure layer and set exposure +2..+3.

Overexposed areas are become corrupted with false colors (see screenshot). Once brightness layer is disabled — overexposed areas are back to normal.

Workaround: disabling Metal acceleration fixes this issue.

Hi stunpix,
Thanks for your report. Issue reproduced/logged to be looked at.

I saw this bug as well. My workaround was to use shadows/highlights filter, and place brightness/contrast below that.  I do not see this bug on every image. 

 

Thanks,

Hi stunpix, LevelB,
This should now be fixed in Affinity Photo Customer Beta 1.7.0.116.
