The Stock panel allows you to search various stock imagery websites to find images for your designs and then add them to the page.
When you add images from the Stock panel to your document, they are placed as watermarked versions. This allows you to use them in your design so you and your clients can visualize their use before you purchase them.


When the design is complete, the features within Affinity Photo allow you to quickly locate the image online (so you can purchase it) and then help you replace the placeholder with a purchased version.
On the Stock panel:
Thumbnails of all images matching the search criteria will display in the panel.
