  1. You'll always get beach balls st some time.
    But the apps sre very effective so it's also to say that you'll probably will get less beach balls than with any other software.

    So it just depends on your budget.

    I'd just advice you to go for 16GB RAM (you can also change this yourself after buying an iMac).
    And I'd choose a SSD or fusion drive. As a photographer I need more space so I choosed a fusion drive.

  2. Hikusai- no joke!

     

    I just visited a Lighrioom course and told the other people there about awesome AP.

    And then Inread this post and just had to freak out and tell everyone that you'll release a DAM in 2016 *_*

     

    So great :)

     

    I'll add some things I "learned" from the course and which I would consider to be very important.

     

    First off not every RAW format is garanteed to be supported till the end of the earth so would it be possible to use DNG as an format to convert the raw files to? They said it would be an open standard from Adobe. I hope it really is that open!

    That's important because DAM is not only about short terms but very important for long iterations.

     

    For example the consistent UI of Lightroom over all past versions was pointed out because it is almost completely the same as in V1. That's not important to me so much but to many others ....

    So in a DAM consistence is very important!

     

    And something that'll be easy to improve:

    The diashow and book options in Lightroom are very poor, I'd would be possible to just drop these things! (Publisher could probably do the book and web stuff anyway!)

     

     

    Last I want to add that there are some color sliders controlling luminance etc very detailed and they would still be awesome in AP, I'll post a picture of then when I'm home.

  3. Hoping for an explanation of use cases for the live stack modes, and they´ll be live like blend modes but I guess that´s for sure.

     

    Thank you very much Affinity Team!

     

    The Levels clipping thing is awesome and the Colorspace options for adjustments as well - but I´ll have to watch some videos about the exact use of them.

     

    Also the Perspective tool is awesome, I´d just make it the default when clicking on the icon in the tools section on the left side and make a checkbox in the toolbox to use it destructively.

  4. ok that´s sad because I use to create two or three sets of adjustments to compare them.

    this get´s my 4GHz Quadcore spinning at 100% and maybe grouping them would allow AP to do some pre rendering on the groups and so I could switch them on and off more fluidly...

     

    And it would be easier to create different "looks" and keep them organized.

     

    Or have you any other solution/ approach for that? 

  5. I know that this has been discussed some time ago and I'm pretty shure it is possible, I just coudn't figure out how to do it.

     

    Say you want to "erase" a power suply cable in a photo.

     

    One approach is to create a curve with the pen tool covering the cable and then turning it into a selection and use the impainting brush inside this selection.

     

    I just couldn't find how to create a selection with the thickness of the curve.....

    When pressing the "selection" bottom in the top bar it reduced a sort of area beneath the curve... (Like a f"fill")

     

    Thanks in advance!
