chippwalters Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Not sure what I'm doing wrong, but when I select a single row of pixels on a pixel layer, it won't allow me to fill with a color-- but rather a alpha aliased version of the color. My settings are: So AA is OFF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstdefence Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 This is to do with position, make sure the selection is aligned to the pixel grid, check in the transform panel that position is not, say, Y: 3.35px change it to 3 You can see the effect if you use the arrow keys up and down and hold the option key to move the selection by point .1 increments.

chippwalters Posted August 18, 2019 Author Share Posted August 18, 2019 Not sure that's the problem. Here's my snap settings: and pixel selection: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstdefence Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Don't have Move by whole pixels checked, if the selection isn't aligned to the pixel grid it will keep moving it offset from the pixel grid, i.e. 5.69px 6.69px, 7.69px etc Quote iMac 27" 2019 Somona 14.3.1, iMac 27" Affinity Designer, Photo & Publisher V1 & V2, Adobe, Inkscape, Vectorstyler, Blender, C4D, Sketchup + more...

R C-R Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Also, make sure in Preferences > User Interface the "Decimal Places for Unit Types" is set to at least 1 decimal place for pixel units. If it is set to zero the Transform panel numbers will be rounded to the nearest whole pixel values. Note that this setting only applies to the display of numeric values. Internally, everything is done at the maximum precision of the app, which is approximately to 8 decimal place precision. (It is an approximation because internally everything is done using binary rather than decimal numbers.)

chippwalters Posted August 19, 2019 Author Share Posted August 19, 2019 @R C-R Yep, it was already set to one. Any other ideas? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chippwalters Posted August 19, 2019 Author Share Posted August 19, 2019 Thanks everyone, for some reason today I can't replicate the problem. I'll file something here if I can replicate the recipe. Dan C 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
