[AP] Issue adding a live gaussian blur adj. layer as a child to a mask layer


Recommended Posts

Two days ago I still was able to add a live Gaussian blur as a child to a layer mask (see attachment).
Since yesterday it's added on top of the layer stack.
I tested it with the 1.7.0.367 release, with the 1.7.0.380 update,
and with the beta 1.7.1.385.
Very strange !!

Similar behaviour here with various things but I haven't been able to say for certain what will cause this to happen. It is an occasional thing and I just assume I have done something different in the selecting or applying of the filter or adjustment. Annoying that I can't duplicate it on demand.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 
Affinity Designer 2.5.5 | Affinity Photo 2.5.5 | Affinity Publisher 2.5.5 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

For what very little it is worth, I have noticed several things in the 1.7.0 retail updates like that -- they work the way I expect them too some of the time & others not, but I have not yet used the new versions enough to be sure that I really understand how they should work.

Hi @HVDB Photography I've not been able to replicate this.  I've set the Assistant setting to add the Adjustment as a child layer and that's what i get on my Windows PC and also Mac.

If you spot anything that seems to be the cause please do update here or if you could share a .afphoto file where when you add an Adjustment and it goes to the top of the layers, i'll see if the same happens with your file on my PC :)
