JR Filter Gallery Macros v3 (Affinity Photo)
This macro pack adds a roster of completely non-destructive filter effects, similar to what you may find within ‘Filter Galleries’ from other image editing software.
These macros utilise some of Affinity Photo’s unique functionality, such as live procedural texture programming, to apply these effects in a layer-based, non-destructive manner, avoiding the need to use Merge Down/Merge Visible which results in redundant pixel layers.
The parameters of each filter effect are highly customisable, and in most cases you can change the strength of the effect simply by changing the opacity of either the group or the singular layer.

- Line Sketch Effect
