Focus stack creates a halo

[srg]

Focus stacking of images creates a halo. It does not seem to be related a movement of the camera or the subject and I have never seen this in the earlier versions of AP.

You may have to watch it a few times to get the information regarding this problem, it is in the later part of the video.

I'm currently working through the Affinity Photo Workbook, I'm on the third attempt at the focus stack exercise; I'm not happy with the halo removal as the settings described in the book and the tutorial videos already posted here; were making things much worse. I've found that the brush is better set to 40% opacity 40% flow and 0% Hardness. Hope this helps.
