Re: Free image editing software

I know this was supposed to be 'free software', but I like Affinity Photo (Apple app of the year 2019) and it is only $25 US right now (1/2 off regular price) and you own it, no subscription. Beats PS at nearly that per month.

Re: How can I magnify the Card editor?

You can use the Windows magnifier by holding the Windows key and hitting the plus sign key. To close it use the Windows key and the Escape (Esc) key. Works fairly well.
