Detecting Edges in Affinity Photo

[nagoodman]

In my effort to totally switch to AP I am trying to recreate what I do in PS. So, I have an image which I duplicate layer and then under filter detect edges, which I desaturate and then change the blending mode to multiply and lower the opacity. What this does is give me something of a sketch around my image . Best description I can think of. But, I cannot get the same effect in AP. I can't seem to layer the detect edges over the layer below it. I've tried numerous different ways but just cannot get the same effect. If anyone has a suggestion I would be most appreciative. Thank you.

Woudn't it be in Filters > Detection > Detect edge | Detect vertical edges | Detect horizontal edges (or similar, since I'm using French version).

Yes, that is where it is but what I am saying I cannot get the same effect. When I change the blending mode, it does blend with the layer below it.

Hello @nagoodman,

Invert your Edges Layer, then you should get the same results as in Photoshop.

 

 

Invest your Edges

Edges invert in Affinity
