Nessx Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 By Isolating I mean encircling an object as if you want to cut it out but instead you just add an effect (e.g. color) to the encircled area. However the effect never applies to the chosen area. How it will? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean that the effect applies to the entire image instead of being restricted to the chosen area, or do you mean that the effect isn’t applied at all? Please tell us which Affinity app you’re using, and on what platform (Mac or Windows).

Nessx Posted July 27, 2019 Author Share Posted July 27, 2019 Oh hang on I tried it with adjustments and it is indeed restricted to the area. I misconstrued something because when I select an area with the selection tool and I type on fx (on the bottom right corner under layers) whatsoever none of this functions will apply to the selection. But glad I discovered that general adjustments do. Didn't try it after I noticed that functions fail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nessx Posted July 27, 2019 Author Share Posted July 27, 2019 But isolating an object by keeping the background comes in handy and really important when u just want to add the tone mapping persona to a certain object in a photo- Do u know how to achieve this?

Nessx Posted July 27, 2019 Author Share Posted July 27, 2019 Maybe ther're different approaches for my several asked question but I simply would rely on the isolating like in After effects ( ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nessx Posted July 27, 2019 Author Share Posted July 27, 2019 Photo and I'm designing it. My Mac is also at 10.14.3 but I'm just to lazy to upgrade to 10.14.5. just my setting. However it remains complicated. I just cut out the object and reattached it. the tone mapping on the general picture works but if I attempt it on the object it says it neesd a pixel layer in order to apply the effect. Any idea how I can convert the object to a layer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
