This bloke was right: Augmented Reality is not just a bad name, it’s a complete misnomer, and is ripe for renaming. However, he can stick XXooming up his arse, or should I say, allow it to tumble down his hole, preferably with the flashlight to keep it in place.I was thinking more along the lines of Obscured Reality, or perhaps Poorly Implemented Overlay Tech, or even Over-Complicated Flat Alternative to Showing You Legible Information by Getting in the Way of Actual Reality.Let’s settle on Jittery Implementation of Shell Models. I look forward to ex-AR developers producing their JISM in front of audiences in future. Break out the screen-wipes. Serif has offered Windows-based alternatives to Adobe’s graphics and DTP software for as long as anyone can remember, but last year it broke into the Mac market with Affinity Designer, a very good new vector drawing app. The next part of its planned suite is Affinity Photo, now in public beta. New builds are being notified every few days, so you may not see exactly the same product featured here.

At around 500MB, Affinity is two-thirds lighter than Photoshop but feels comprehensive and extremely responsive. Photoshop plugins are supported and most Photoshop key shortcuts are matched, although I was thwarted by the square bracket shortcuts working only for brush size, not softness.Raw images are processed in Affinity Photo’s Develop module, which includes manual distortion corrections as well as a full range of tonal adjustments – click for a larger image Besides the main Photo mode there are three other ‘Personas’, toggled via buttons at the top left: Liquify, emulating Photoshop’s freehand distortion module of the same name; Export, which supports slicing; and Develop. The latter appears to allow pre-processing when you open a raw image, but will ultimately be available for general editing too.Layer support extends to adjustment layers and ‘live filters’, similar to Photoshop’s Smart Filters. Masks are applied as linked layers, and vector paths can be treated the same way. It’s an extremely versatile system once you get the hang of it. At the moment, Shadows/Highlights doesn’t work as well as the Photoshop equivalent. It’s impossible to know what will and won’t be fixed in the finished app, but the regularly updated public beta shows willing.
