thanks for prompt response and the clarification Walt , truly appreciated. FWIW I moved from CS5 to Affinity in 2018 and I continue to be a satisfied customer! -

Affinity Designer for macOS - 1.10.0

Hi, I'm running a MacPro w quad core intel xeon e5 and Mac OS 10.10.5 Yosemite. I have downloaded the Affinity 1.10.0 upgrade from my original Designer 1.9.3 . Prior to downloading I checked to ensure the upgrade was functional with OS 10.10.5. When I installed the upgrade I got a notice to upgrade to Mac Sierra 10.12 or newer. Is this Mac OS upgrade required or a suggestion. If I upgrade I lose MS Office for mac which has become an expensive subscription I don't want to purchase -

I currently am using Mac OS 10.10 and Affinity 1.6. I have not updated my Mac OS due to the loss of functionality of applications I currently have such as MS Office if I update my Mac OS. If I did I would have to 'repurchase' my existing software which is an expensive proposition. So I need to be sure the Affinity 1.9 update doesn't require a later Mac OS than 10.10 I have Publisher and Designer also and are fine products from Affinity. thanks! Jan

Hi First Defense, Stokeyh and mikerofoto, thanks for the feedback it's appreciated. FWIW initially I was a Light Room user along with PhotoShop. With my recent 'conversion' to a new enlightened path for photo management and editing I began with Camera bits. Initially I wasn't sure about this app but after a year I believe it's excellent and has been fast and accurate in all functions I require. Although I was initially reluctant I now I recommend it. Similarly I have been slowly moving over to Affinity from Photoshop and I'm now near the "tipping point". I've got Affinity set up as the default editor when using Camerabits/Photomechanic. It's very smooth between the two as long as I use other formats like jpg, png, tiff etc. for saving the file. However this means I have two files for each image a jpg and afphoto. I'd like to eliminate the intermediate step. I'll drop a note to Kirk Baker at photomechanic and let him know how I'm using Affinity. Frankly there's been a lot of discussion on various forums regarding opting out of Adobe and Affinity is one solution I recommend.

I have been to the Camerabits/Photomechanic forum and it appears as a user of that application the Affinity photofiles; afphoto cannot be read by Photomechanic which is a photo management application. Is there any update that permits me to review files stored as afphoto using Photomechanic? thanks all! Jan N
