Thank you for tutorial. I can not understand when I create vector shape, the background of it is transparent, but in the video it is black. how do you do it?
Photomator and soon Pixelmator is now far ahead for retouching and mainly for selections / masking then Affinity currently is. Like select object on Photoshop, Affinity even with the latest version is far far behind. Good they did fixed the Keyboard layout short cut switch after years at leat. AI should have been implemented in 2.0
You rock! And affinity rocks 🎉
Thanks for these tips. Btw what do you think affinity photo will do in comparison with Adobe's new generative fill
I really like trick N03 this is a great video, thanks so much look forward to the next one.
These are GREAT! Thanks for the video 👏
Very useful tips. Thanks
Something I've just find about.
Thank you for another interesting tutorial. In reality it is more than a tutorial about masking per se. It also demonstrates the power of grouping, globally and selectively, to achieve various interesting results. Also, the little trick of using the shapes to define the area of the mask is something that had not dawned on me. Thanks for that as well.
The first masking trick– grouping– I needed this morning. What did I do instead? I duplicated the same mask for each adjustment layer! 😆
Does this work in Affinity 1?
I understand more now. Thanks
Excellent tutorial Thankyou
Another gem (gems!) Ally – thank you. 🙂
This is a great video and many months ago I came up with a similar method (using erase) to have multiple vignettes. Think of putting a spotlight on a few people that are in a team photo. Darken the photo, then erase a few peoples adjustment. Having said that, Affinity Photo is still sensitive to the order of doing things to get to the same layer set up. Hard to repeat, but the sequence of actions seem to make a difference. I'm saying there are still bugs.
Those are amazing tips! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you Ally! Very interesting. Greetings from Vienna!
Great tips! Thank you!
Skvělá recenze ok👍👏
Thanks Ally, another cracker
Great tips! Thank you ☺️
Thank you so much for these tips, very helpful indeed!
Good Stuff!!!!! THanks for it!
Allways learning a Lot with you Ally. Thanks.
ooooo hiding the selection while dragging…..That is a game changer! I've been hiding it via the view menu for ages…such a pain!
Thank you! This tutorial demonstrates features a "once in a while" Affinity Photo user might actually find useful. There are many tutorials demonstrating advanced methods that I personally would never use, so when I find a tutorial such as this I "save" it to my Affinity library. 👍
