Excellent as usual,👏Thanks for this video and the macro!
I knew tho other methods for the orton effect, this one is interessant.
My pleasure!
Scott...You are amazing! Thank you so very much for the macro and the great explanation (as always).
Thank you Ann 😀
Hi I have tried to follow you until now everything good until I want to apply the blur layer. When I look at your screen the blur layer is at the same level as the bottom layer. But me if click on the blur filter it goes a bit to the right and is grouped with the background layer. If I tick it to the left then the effect of the blurr on the background layer does not apply. My question is why when I follow your exact move my blur filter regroups to my backround layer and when I seperate them the blur effect stops working.Is something with my settings wrong? thank you I have been here for 3 hours trying all kind of trick but to no avail helpppp. lol
The only thing I can think of is that you have adjustments being added as child layer. this can be set to add as new layer in the developer assistant.
please tell me what to open your downloads with/ Love your vids. cheers
Windows/mac
Macro shall have .afmacros in order to be loaded by the AP. The link goes to a .afmacro file that cannot be loaded
The macro can be loaded from the macro panel. Not the library panel. As shown in the video.
hi Scott. I just found your video for the Orton Effect but the download doesn't work in Affinity Photo V2. Will you be updating, or creating a new version for V2? Or should I create a macro from the video?
I have just tested it in v2 and it works fine.
@@ScottWilliamsPhotography For some reason it doesn't on my Mac. When I click on the download it doesn't even recognise Affinity Photo.
In the video there are 22 steps in the macro. In the downloaded version there are only 11. I use AP 1.8.4. The file size 1800 bytes. Maybe I missed something along the way?
You are correct. I accidentally uploaded a previous version of the macro that did not contain the sharpening stage. The correct file and link are now present. Thank you very much for taking the time to let me know 👍
Thanks again for a great tutorial and macro
Glad you liked it!
Orton effect made simple by Scott Williams on Affinity Photo. Excellent, thank you so much.
You're welcome!
Something's wrong with the link......... is seem's the macro is downloading but the file size is only 2KB
That is correct. The macro is just a small file.
Very helpful video and thanks for the macro and the "how-to-use-it" demo. At 2:00 I didn't totally understand the purpose for checking Preserve Alpha in the Gaussian Blur Live Filter Palette. Your comment was the blur would not go all the way to the image edges otherwise. I realize blurs are gradient-like but what does Preserve Alpha do to change that? I think the name is bothering me. Isn't Alpha the image pixel bits? How does preserving them make the blur wider? Would appreciate a "head-thump" here. 🔨
If you don't check preserve alpha then the blur fades away at the edges. That is the only way I can describe it.
Great explanations as usual!
Thank you very much. I hope you find it useful.
This is so helpful. I'm gonna try this out. Thank you for your help.
Glad it was helpful!
Thinking you Mr. Williams. Your Tutorials are great.
Thank you very much Marius.

You are very welcome Patrick.

Youa re welcome😊
Am not able to import this Macro.. am I missing something!
Be sure to use the macro panel for the import and not the library panel.
Nice one Scott 😎. Just subscribed!
Awesome, thank you!
How can I make two active selections in one photo using Pen tool in Affinity?
Good question. Create your curves with the pen tool. Select all the curve layers and go to layers->geometry and choose merge curves. Then choose selection on the pen toolbar. This will create a single active selection from multiple curves. Hope that helps. I think I will make a video about this as it will be useful information for others.
@@ScottWilliamsPhotography Thank you so much. If you can do a video it will save us beacuse Im a super beginner in Affinity Photo.
I have put it on the list 😀
So helpful! thank you
You are very welcome.
Thanks 👍😁good Job
Thank you very much.
