Brilliant Olivio...Thanks

you are welcome :)

[@davidpurple3698]

Perfet thanks.

[@bobprince1472]

I couldn't get it to work until I read in the comments that you need to change the picture from `image` to `pixel layer`. Perhaps that needs greater emphasis in the tutorial, or, a PS in your description above.

[@auralian1428]

Great video Olivio thank you.
I have a question. What does rasterise do? and why do we need to do it to an image?
To add, can we potentially get a tutorial on adding/ editing clothing on someone? Extending a dress, new sleeves etc.
Thanks!

[@teotrott6568]

Great Tutorial Olivio, thank you so much. ʘ‿ʘ greets Manuela

[@rolfhoekstra2237]

Hello Olivio, I learn a lot of all your tutorials, thank you for that, but can you give me a time what you need, to learn all of the ins and outs of Affinity Photo.

[@KainsTorment]

Thanks, but what I don’t understand is why does Affinity Photo need so many masks? Take the Spot Heal on the brick wall, I usually Spot Heal on the Layer because I find masks confusing... I come from Photoshop CS6 to Affinity Photo so there’s a massive jump, also in Photoshop CS6 I never needed Masks so I’m wondering is masks in Affinity Photo just making more layers and more work? After my image is done I merge layers down most of the time. Your wisdom will be appreciated here :)

[@kiranmistry919]

how did you create the mask so that it becomes part of the pixel layer and not a layer above it?

[@manuelremusstanca5539]

Hi Olivio, I am new to photo editing. It is a pure hobby to me. One question: what is the difference between layer and mask layer? Where I am supposed to use the former and where the latter? Thx

[@OlivioSarikas]

Hi Manuel, a layer can be many things, like a pixel layer, adjustment layer, mask layer. A mask layer on the other hand is a layer that defines what is visible or hidden (depending on if the mask layer is higher up than the over layers or a child of another layer)

[@janetaylor3462]

why am i erasing the bricks, there is something I am missing. done it several times, step by step

[@chefmikebenninger481]

can you attach the actual photos so we can follow along?

[@AhmedAli-zm2wy]

Thanks. Can you use architectural buildings as examples for future tutorials.

[@OlivioSarikas]

I'm not sure what you mean by that

[@AhmedAli-zm2wy]

@@OlivioSarikas I am an architecture student using the affinity softwares, and I use your tutorials to help me with some of my assignments. I was just asking to use some architectural images as examples for your tutorials in the future.

[@Carolingio]

👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@Carolingio]

@@OlivioSarikas Thanks Olivio for sharing your knowledge, since I met Affinity, I did not return to PS, and your tutorials have been the key, I would only ask one thing, if you can subtitle them in Spanish, it would be much more practical and I am sure that will increase your audience exponentially, many successes.👍

[@PierGiorgioZuccaro]

Are you Genio!

[@joham]

When I change to move tool, it works with the layer not the selection.

[@OlivioSarikas]

your layer probably says (image) instead of (pixel). right-click and rasterize that layer so it becomes a (pixel) layer
