Looking forward to seeing all your rainy photos ;)

this was done/ changed in 1.5 for VFX artist that use computer generated graphics with "too much" dynamic range they may need this huge range but for normal photographers, I'd second your request, I feel like the EV adj. became much less user-friendly

allright, hopefully I'll get this in my version, which is Mac, as well :D :D :ph34r:

thanks for the change log :wub: :) I'm not aware of ctrl start restoring anything rather than deleting something but anyway, this got me thinking could you add a button on the ctrl restart page like "export all" which would just take all files that were otherwise deleted and just put them in simple folder, zip that folder and another button to restore which would take such a zip as an argument and then restores them? This would make troubleshooting particularly less scary, both in development and stable versions here is one example where resetting led to a significant performance increase in the stable version but without such a "save" feature this is not particularly appealing option in a stable env, especially if one does not know in advance if it will succeed thanks :)

this thing is insane, really cool program and great demo! keep them coming please :) :wub: http://www.freehandforum.org/downloads-FreeHand-plugins-xtras.html here are actually the install files I guess, at least one can take a look at the manual and look at some of the features in there

yeah C1p + MediaPro, definitely targeting a different (pricing) range than AP ( + DAM) (for such a high price, I'd rather go with Adobe) after all bridge is free so no need to spend 189, just keep the Adobe Application Manager and Update Assistant and CC Account until Affinity has a DAM, yeeeeah

189€ fir browsing, yeah sure they offer that but in that case I'd rather go back to Adobe Express is pretty limited, but 50€ for the full version (with Sony limited RAW) support is okaaaay.... btw the new MacPro pricing is still a joke compared to the iMac pricing

If you want to process more than a dozen images at once you'll need another software package anyway. (Or wait for the affinity DAM to arrive and then develope/ manage your photos efficiently) Have you considered the XT20 btw? RAW conversion quality is overrated, C1 is always praised to be way better than LR but it just applies different presets (mainly) so als long as you are not 600% zoomed in you will never notice, even if you notice, the people that view your photos will not. No pun intended Cheers :)

149$? might just as well get Capture One Pro which is at least well established, a bit of a learning curve but get's the job done from tethering to batch export C1p is 50$ for Sony users btw. and if you just want a very fast/ the fastest browser without a catalog, you can use bridge for the interim for free https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/19003-free-fast-file-browser-bridge/?p=88124

but please with live preview :D :D

We'll make tutorials for you and answer your questions, promised :)

AP is like PS not like LR what you are looking for is this https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/13792-dam-affinity-lightroom-killer-request/?p=190084 cheers

no totally missed that but happily noticed that adobe announced to give an option for purchasing instead of renting :wub: :)

https://vimeo.com/affinitybyserif/videos/search:artboards/sort:date these are the official tutorials covering artboards

it does not really matter I would create a new document with the desired size, color stuff, bleed (if needed) etc and then just copy paste from the other document (just open the PDF in AD), that is the easiest and KISS way which is also recommended in some official tutorial if you choose to create the new document with or without dartboards does not really matter either because as described above you can change it later anyway (in one direction, non artboard >> artboard document at least) it really makes no difference, just two ways

thanks Sherlock :rolleyes: sure thing clipping and cropping and nesting, remembering the right terminology is just a time sink for me -_- this double-temrinology of cropping is nuts especially

well... like actually you can also get accurate results without a calibrated monitor you can either have specific values set that you want to match or you can have a book with printed examples, choose the ones you like and get their numbers out of the book in the end, even a calibrated monitor can not display CMYK color so doing color correction "by the numbers" is at least a good/ necessary addition Affinity has a nice feature called Softproof that does part of this job, shows you which (1)colors do not fit your printer https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/32516-soft-proof-in-practice/?p=158109 I tried to break color management down as much as possible here https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/33820-color-profiles-management/?p=165094 one advice I can give to reduce the error-possibilitys is to not work in CMYK If you work in a Colorspace that is covered by your monitor (use sRGB) and then convert into CMYK, you won't get the benefits of the larger gamut of CMYK, but you won't be surprised by (2)colors that you could not see on your screen. hope that is helpful :) * (1) (2) these are the reasons why your print does not look as desired

your document is not yet in "artboard mode" (1), you have to click "insert artboard" to convert it, this entry is located in the top bar where also "document setup" and such things reside (1) this depends on whether you check the "create artboard" option during document creation cheers

same happened to me that day in other places :D :D :D

I'm pretty sure youtube does that automatically and since all videos are now supposed to be on youtube...that should work just checked it out and it was like 100% accurate James just has the prototype kind of voice which googles speech recognition algorithms can just chew away like... :) he can probably ask google for some money for training their AI in such a way, teaching the AI proper English :D hope that helps cheers

yeah, coupled with the embedded gyroscope this will almost be like a virtual reality editing environment that adapts to your current working position :D

I think there is currently no way to dial this in exactly when you do this using just straight lines like 90degree angle, this makes very bad transitions but when you use nice curved shaped lines, you can not match shadow/ highlight/midtones really 100% that being said, it might not be needed at all to match them 100% I for myself would always just do them from scratch anyway as I see fit, it is just so fast in AP and one will just always tweak them layer anyway (that is what works for me) btw you can group layers already, but it is a hack / you create a layer / press cmd g / set up your assistant options in a way so that new adjustments are added on top, rather than nested, then you can build up an adjustment layer set inside a group and you can also rename the, it is just bit buggy but like macros should definitely support multiple selections so this will be improved, I'm sure :)

at first I wanted to write something about Dynamic Range myself but I just came across this article which is a really well done piece so I encourage you to take a look at it :) http://thephotofundamentalist.com/general-discussion/why-dynamic-range-is-important/ cheers :)
