Staff Lee D Posted September 10, 2019 Staff Share Posted September 10, 2019 We don't have any dedicated tutorials on adjusting .HEIC files with Depth Maps included. You can rasterise the depth map to a mask by right clicking the layer in the Layers panel to then apply adjustments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markofrancisco Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Thanks Lee for the pointer. Of course, the cool thing would be to apply the lighting filter via the depth map for 3D lighting effects, as with the Apollo or Focos apps. They work, but are primitive. AP would be awesome...

BBCrayC Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Hi there, I have a similiar question. I imported the portrait to correct the depth map (Photos app forgot a little portion). What I lack is the knowledge to re-apply the edited depth map. Maybe I am also just searching for the wrong terms. Can you give me a hint please? Cheers, Bernd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaffeeundsalz Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 I would also like to know this. When I import a Portrait Mode photo from the iPhone, I get the Depth Map as a separate grayscale layer in Affinity Photo. I can then edit the Depth Map by e.g. painting on that layer. So far, so good. However, there are two things I cannot do: First, I couldn‘t find a way to actually preview the Depth Map layer as an applied depth of field effect on the image. Second, I couldn‘t figure out how to export the image with the edited depth map so that Apple Photos would recognise it as a Portait Mode photo. Any hint would be greatly appreciated.

Cricutuser Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 On the ipad, following the hint here, I copied the background layer then inverted the depth map layer in adjustments panel. Then I “rasterized to mask” and dragged the mask into the copied background layer. That gave me my blurred background. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
