Is ADOBE logging (and phoning home?), that one has Affinity Photo installed??? This question came up in another thread (and I could not change that thread’s title later on, but find the question too interesting to be overlooked) see here https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/10868-useless-old-data-stuff-from-deleted-photo-beta-where-to-find-what-can-i-safely-delete/&p=46496

Hi Paul, thank you for the answer. So, you think, I can safely delete just everything that has the name affinityphoto.beta in it? The interesting thing with the finder-search is: when I search for „affinityphoto.beta“ a ) search in „This Mac“ —> there is just 1 result user-> Library -> GROUP Containers -> … 128 Byte I guess, that one can be deleted. ________ ________ b ) search ONLY in „Library“ there are MORE results !!! additionally found now: 1. a FILE called com.seriflabs.affinityphoto.beta that has 430 Byte in user-> Library -> Containers -> Can I delete THIS WHOLE FILE ??? (again: the app itself was deleted already and is not in the trash anymore) ________ 2. and now this gets interesting… CoreSync-… .log in user-> Library -> Application Support -> ADOBE -> CoreSync I really do wonder, what that means…??? Is ADOBE logging (and phoning home?), that I have Affinity Photo installed??? This CoreSync-…. .log can be opened with TextEdit and then a quick search for „affinity“ in that text indeed shows some gobbledegook with „com.seriflabs.affinityphoto.beta“ in it. I guess, I should not delete that one, but I really do wonder what it means… Can somebody shed some light on this, please? TIA :) P.S.: Mavericks 10.9.5

Could somebody please tell me, where I can find the „rests“ from the previously installed Affinity PHOTO version. I did drag the Photo-Beta from the Applications folder to the trash. And I do understand, that this will suffice to have a nicely working bought Photo version from MAS. However, I like to keep my system as „clean“ as possible. ;) @AFFINITY Could you please tell me the exact places (paths) in the Library etc. where there is data-stuff from the Photo-Beta, that can safely be deleted manually? Thank you very much ! :)

The table of contents for Affinity Photo that was posted in the thread’s start, is very, very helpful indeed! Thanks :) @Affinity I would strongly recommend to also put this table of contents (with the links) ON the very site with the video tutorials - that would help new or potential users a lot IMHO. ;) Also: please do add such a table of contents for Affinity DESIGNER too. ____ regarding the videos: - some video tutorials could be a bit longer to my mind. Of course that depends from person to person, but if a video was just 1-2 minutes longer, some things would become clearer more easily, I think. Thank you for listening :)

Thx! Will do so. :) I thought there would be some hidden Beta-stuff somewhere (in the Library…???) that should be manually deleted too…? :huh: If you know of such hidden rests of the Beta, please let me know and tell me the path(s) to it, if possible. TIA! :) OK, I got to go on now, to tell friends about Affinity Photo… let’s see, where A.P. will be in the MAS charts in 24 hrs… :-)) … very high, IMHO ^_^

CONGRATS on the release !!! Gosh… great, great, great ! :wub: The launch video is really cooool! :) And the tutorials are very, very helpful indeed - will there be even MORE tutorials coming…? :) https://affinity.serif.com/de/tutorials/photo/ __ Affinity Photo is SO impressive! Really, the only feature I’m missing is this „Video Frames to Layers“ thingy… :( Of course I do understand, that you can’t implement all wishes and features - and not at the very start. However, it would really, really help me A LOT, if I just knew, if you’re planning to add this feature - maybe in a year…??? :rolleyes: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/9510-„video-frames-to-layers“-image-sequence-from-a-video-pleeease/ Thank you very much! :)

I would like to buy it too, but I’m wondering, what to do _exactly_ with the installed Beta? I know from other apps, that there could be problems with 2 versions, so please tell me, what to do before buying & installing from MAS. Thank you ! :) And… CONGRATS on the release !!! :lol:

While I can see, that the new logos must have been a lot of hard work, I must say, that I personally like the „old“ logos much, much better. Why don’t you just use the „old“ logos (at least) until the whole suite is actually available? Like others wrote, the logo is not so important for existing users - the apps themselves count. :) For me it would be actually of much more importance to know, how your thoughts about feature requests are, than logos… (err, …giving a broad hint here… ;) „video-frames-to-layers“ feature: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/9510-„video-frames-to-layers“-image-sequence-from-a-video-pleeease/ P.S.: @ serif Maybe that’s interesting for you: I asked several people, who didn’t buy Affinity Designer yet, but who’d like to buy a nice, easy app to just use sporadically. They said, the old logos do look more: quote: „inviting“, „like a friendly app“, „welcoming“ etc.. Also everybody said, the differences, of what the 3 separate apps will do, are better represented with the old logos.

Please add the feature to import a VIDEO file to get single frames of that video as images on separate layers. = „Video Frames to Layers“ in Photoshop: „Video Frames to Layers“ File-> Import -> „Video Frames to Layers“ The Option „Limit to every _ n_ Frames“ is essential to have in this feature. This feature maybe was not sooo important for a long time, but now it has become a very interesting feature, esp. for web designers, as one can „fake“ a video-scroll effect with such an image sequence, without having the disadvantages of video on (mobile) websites. I hope, you get what I’m trying to describe here? ;) It would be very, very helpful just to KNOW, if you are planning to implement this feature. Thank you very much in advance! And thank you SO much for all the great work you do! I wish you best of luck with just everything!!! :) P.S.: http://www.muse-themes.com/products/frame-scrubber Here you can find a video (next to „Widget Highlights“) that will explain, why this feature would be so extremely nice to have… :)
