When i do not add layers: i do choose save , get asked for a location and will have a .afphoto file outside LR When i do add layers : i cannot choose save/flattened but will have only the save option, get asked for a location and will have a .afphoto file outside LR

Thank you for your Comments so far. For the moment, I would be ok if i could transfer a TIFF to Affinity as tiff and get it automatically back as (flattened) tiff. But as i wrote, i can transfer the tiff (ProPhotoRGB, 300 dpi, Tiff) into Affinity, but after Editing can´t get it back to LR. @strawberrymonkey: how do you (successful) return the image to LR? I get asked for a location to Save, and there will be a .afphoto File instead of a tiff, and nothing back in LR. I understand i could use the export to generate a tiff or PSD in a location and reimport this to LR. But in this Case i loose the connection from the original NEF to the edited tiff. So in the first place I still do not understand (even for a flattened tiff) how to setup a functional workflow. Is there a way to force affinity to give back the files as tiff or psd or jpeg? For later: Will then be the Layers been given back any time soon, too? peter

Hello everybody, I´m new to the forum and hope I will find the one or other solution for upcoming problems in using Affinity. My primary concern is the correct setup for the use of Affinity Photo in a workflow with Adobe Lightroom. I only shoot uncompressed raw (nef) Files an store/organize these in LR, tag them, edit them, an print them. I use other programs like NIK Collection and PS5 (and would like to switch here to Affinity). Now I included Affinity in the Settings as an "Edit in" tool, an correctly my LR edited NEF is opened in Affinity , and i can edit it there. My problem is how to get the edited File with all alterations back in LR. Finishing other editing tools ends up in returning the files back to LR as .tiff automatically an to include the files in the catalog an store the tiff in the same place as the Original. Affinity asks mit to Save the File, in a specified location, does it in .afphoto an gives nothing back to LR. How can i manage to make Affinity give back a tiff to LR when closing Affinity, preferred without asking back?. I ´m using LR 6 on 10.10.4, on a macPro with external RAID for the image files. peter :unsure:
