Things are not going well at this end when using Affinity Photo :(

still have the big drama of images freezing --- that is; cannot  be moved with the hand tool and most other tools. . Doesn't matter how the images are loaded into Ap --- even new docs/blank pages have frozen so it certainly nothing to do with Lr 5 as thought last week 
As a way to fix the problem; and a few other things I requested a computer shop to reformat and reinstall; however the "reinstall" part was lost between the front desk and the work table  so I now I have an Acer laptop with just factory settings.  :( 
After  downloading Ap again and many hours of work  I'm now using the older ASUS laptop and the freeze problem is still happening .

This new problem as shown in the SS happens when  an outline border with FX -- the photo has been flatten, and opened from Lr5 as a tiff "with lightroom corrections''. Just tested exporting from Lr to the edit folder >opened with Ap and there are no dramas (only done once)

might help to upload the afphoto file but it looks like it's applying outline to clusters of pixels, if the outline is on it's own layer try erasing in those area's to see if the outline blocks disappear.

??? Is that somehow related?

It was a know issue that arose in earlier versions of APhoto, when applying an FX outline on a RGB/32 (HDR) image. 

But it's has been fixed. 

Did you update to the latest version  ?
