Corel Painter is PRIME example, $229/$179 upgrade from 2019 to 2020, dollar value of Serif products.

Corel, not Humble, provided be a new download DMG to load the Painter 2019 Free Trial. I was able to use the Product Key provided by Humble to load and register. I was not interested in the other products. Link that works for macOS 10.15: https://www.corel.com/akdlm/6763/downloads/free/trials/Painter/2019/CorelPainter2019.dmg

Walt, I checked before posting. If they did, it’s hidden from view, support or instructions.

As of yesterday, no.

I would had appreciated “fool” why did you purchase reply, thank you for your donation. I had a gut feeling this was wrong, my gut hurts, in so many ways.

MEB, consider redo: provide users in AP Preferences or if not preselected in Preferences, a pop up menu allowing users to designate folder for Save/Save apphoto format. Users would know or could change designated folder and of choice by specific project. Thank you, as always, for your guidance.

It’s it time for Affinity Photo to allow macOS users an option to Save/Save as to a designated folder of choice? Export you can select numerous formats, why can we not have this same workflow to Save/Save As to maintain afphotos format? It is clear macOS users are not able to save to Apple Photos, even using workaround, Edit in Affinity Photos. A simple post, from Serif, stating that macOS users (suspect Catalina) should be advised that is a problem and fix will be released in version1.7.? or until advise, not to use Apple Photos if one requires Saving in Apple Photos. Information is paramount in keeping customers informed and preventing repeated threads outlining same problem(s). I would prefer a choice, similar to Export function, offering a pre designated Save/Save as folder and/or option to select users folder of choice selection to Save/Save, even/after problem is fixed. Designated a Save folder in: pop up window or preferences, Folder of choice or Apple Photos. .

Next to Straighten, Overlay Dan C screen shot, see Thirds Grid? Click there to change settings.

BTW, I did get the same error notice you mention in your post. I just closed Photo, re-did the Apple Photos, doubled clicked on photo, Edit, Extension (...), Affinity Photo, picture opened in Affinity Photo, I made a few test adjustments, File, Save, File Affinity Photo, Close and it ask me if I wanted to Save, I clicked Ok. Location mentioned in above post. i don’t truly know if Apple or Serif is at fault but this is a top issue, so many different threads.

I also had a Wacom 3 and older version of Painter. They will not update driver to tablet to work on macOS, even Mojave did not work. I verified this with their support staff. Wacom and Corel both on my S list, that is the only reason I tried the Humble web link.

Nice comeback, I was referring to your “after which we gave up trying to get a good shot”.

Catalina 10.15, I sent them, Humble a message; however, no reply. Corel Painter 2019, on website is compabile, some issues with Sidecar and tablet. I will wait and see if they do reply. I purchased using the Amazon link, hoping if I had a problem, they could or would assist.

Check Finder, scroll down to Media, check to see if you have Affinity Photo, click and see if photo store in that location.

Some cameras have Rapid Fire or simply hold down shutter button to get multiple shots, one should give you a good shot.

Walt my $25 lesson, totally my fault.
