  • macmost.com/e-2257 You can use the brush selection tool in Affinity Photo to cut out a subject in a photo. With the subject on a separate layer, you can apply adjustments, filters and effects to just the subject or the background. You can also copy and paste the subject onto another background image.

    In less than 10 minutes I was able to understand all that I've struggled to grasp through lots of other videos. That "A-ha" moment. Your video also gave me so many ideas I can finally pull off. Thanks.

    Many thanks, Gary. Like others glad to see you're covering Affinity Photo which is my preferred app for photo editing. With regards to the bear image at 8:15 an even quicker way to erase the white background is to select Filters>Colours>Erase White Paper. I use this option frequently to create images with a transparent background.

    Thanks Gary, another great video. I would love to see additional videos regarding Affinity Photo. Just looking, it appears to be a lot of videos on RUclips (not sure of quality). Great cost effective option opposed to Adobe. Have you ever posted your preferred tools that you use on a regular basis? Thanks again for all that you do and for your talents.

    • @macmost
      @macmost  3 года назад +1

      I'm not sure which I really prefer. Acorn is great for making quick graphics. Affinity Photo seems best for editing photos. Pixelmator seems to combine the best of both for graphics with photo elements. I switch between the three all the time and really haven't settled for one. But I think most people don't need graphics as much as me (app+web developer) and are just looking to edit photos.

    I enjoyed your video very much. I agree with Bruno that it would benefit many affinity photo users if you did more tutorials on that app. I would like to see you also do some with Affinity designer. Thanks.

      @@macmost I figured it out almost immediately after commenting. All I had to do was deselect the background layer.
      I'm very new to editing, if i'm unable to find an affinity photo tutorial for a specific task, would it be possible to replicate that task using an adobe photoshop (or any other editing software) tutorial? or does Affinity photo pose limitations other editing softwares don't?
      Excuse me for asking so many questions

      You don't edit text on a PDF. A PDF is like a printed page. If you want to make changes, you go back to the original document (In Pages, Word, InDesign, etc) and change it there and export another PDF.

    When I cut out the image and place it on my other photo, the Move Tool doesn't select the image I pasted. What am I doing that is possibly wrong? I was following along so well until I got to that point! All I get is that hand that moves the whole photo around.

    • @macmost

      Make sure you have the Move tool selected, and also that you have that particular layer selected.

    EXPORT "just" the CUT-Out >> Could You show how to export out just the Cut-Out as a PNG for Futurre Use. NO ONE ever shows that. I guess you could save the FILE as an Affinity file, but I would Like to have the Cut out separate to use in Videos etc. Am I the only person in the world that would do this, I don't think so. People presume You immediately want to add a New Background . . .

    • @macmost
      @macmost  10 месяцев назад

      Yes, just save a file with only the cutout. Here another video where I talk about this, but not for Affinity specifically. ruclips.net/video/4vKCIWLEY2U/видео.html&t
