GarryP Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 (edited) Some of the filters are not available in 32-bit mode. Can you check the profile of your image? Select the Pan tool and have a look at the text as highlighted in my attached image, where my image is RGB 8-bit. Edited October 12, 2019 by GarryP Forgot to attach the image. Davide Galilei 1 Quote

GarryP Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 Davide, another thing worth checking for – which I still keep doing more often than I’d like – is to assume that you are working on a ‘normal’ layer rather than a mask layer. It’s so easy to have the wrong thing selected and wonder why nothing is happening. Davide Galilei 1 Quote
Davide Galilei Posted October 12, 2019 Author Posted October 12, 2019 I was working on a selection, i'm new with affinity photo ad I'm learning how to use it... Thanks for the answer Quote
GarryP Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 You’re welcome. Just one last thing on a similar issue to the filters not being available, I think I remember hearing in one of the official tutorial videos that some filters are sometimes not available under certain conditions but I can’t remember what those conditions were. The official videos are very informative so they are well worth watching anyway if you get a few minutes here and there. Davide Galilei 1 Quote
