dloewen4 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Hi, I'm enjoying Affinity Designer so far but have ran into a problem using a greyscale image as a mask. I have a white rectangle, and the image to mask with. When I drag the image over the rectangle so it shows the vertical bar and drop it I still see 100% white. It should be partially transparent at this point. In Photoshop this would be as simple as copying the image, creating a blank mask, then pasting it in. Here's a screencast showing the problem: http://quick.as/56A8h5gq9 Is this a bug, or is there a different way to do this? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted July 1, 2015 Staff Share Posted July 1, 2015 Hi dloewen4, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) To use the image as a mask, select it, the go to menu Layer ▹ Rasterise to Mask, only then you can drag it over your white rectangle in the Layers Panel. If your background is also white you may have trouble seeing it but it's there. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
