I already have and it was identified as a bug by and Chris B is reporting it to the bug list.

Hi Guys at Serif
Speaking of sticky things required I would also like to have the selections I make in Batch mode to be sticky so I don't have to select all of the settings each Time I want to batch process a bunch of images. Even the ability to save the settings until I change the save file would be a big help.
While this is not a bug it does pertains to PaulEC's and J3rry's comments above about having sticky settings to make work flows more user friendly.
If the devs could achieve this it would be great for all of those issues relating to multiple repeated key strokes required to achieve a simple task in other editing software.
Any improvements in this regard would be greatly appreciated as I have invested a lot of time and effort to stick with AP and want to continue if things can be made more streamlined. I have been seriously considering switching to Luminar Neo regardless of price and hope Serif is interested in retaining its user base.
Thanks, and fingers crossed.

Hi Len 96
I would also like to be able to Sync Develop Settings to multiple images for doing HDR Photos. Lightroom and PS allowed this for every adjustment the application could do. I affinity Photo you have to create develop presets for every phot you take, ridiculous.
There are more but I would have to think about it and make a list. There is no point creating a feature by copying Adobe unless you are going to improve on it, otherwise you are just creating a new problems
I have reported a problem regarding a 2 monitor setup where the the panels change size and position each time the app is opened. This again shpould have been fixed long ago as it wasn't present in Photo V1. Still Happening through all of the betas and three full releases.
I have spent most of my time since purchasing V1 trying to create work arounds for basic thing I used in LR and PS
Serif could review the basic requirements for features already existing and fix them for maximum workflow (least number of clicks. I would and others would really appreciate it.
 
Thanks,
 

Hi All
I have created a preset for the grid & axis setting but every time I close an image I have to select my short cut and then click show gris. This slows my work flow. I have tried this in 2.2.1 and 2.2.0 (1903).
Any way we can have a user settings so that I can set this a permanent selection to save steps? Only only use this one grid.
I am running on Mac Pro Ventura 3.4 12 core with 96GB of ram.

Yes Got it working.
Thanks All for the help

Yes Got it working.
Thanks All for the help

Thanks Walt
I will try this.
Thanks,
 

Hi Walt
I am using a MAC Pro running macOS Monterey 12.3.1. Sorry I sent the post before remembering to add the computer and OS specifics. I removed the 1769 and installed a previous version of the bet and the problem disappeared, so this issue is specific to the 1769 beta on Mac

Hi All
I downloaded AP V2 and was disappointed to see there was not sync feature. I shoot a lot of HDR and would like to simplify the the process of matching processing on numerous raw files before merging them.
In V1 this was a very look and cumbersome process in which I had to open multiple images process each individually, save them as tif reopen them and then perform the HDR merge. I couldn't just save them and do a merge of .afphoto files because HDR merge function doesn't work with native affinity Photo files? Dah?
Could we get this capability in V2 As in Adobe Light room. I would pay more for this feature as an add on or an update. The same is true when trying to do regular or focus stacks.
 
It would save me an enormous amount of time, frustration and storage costs. The alternative would be able to select multiple files simultaneously allow a raw processing macro to run on all, save as .afphoto files and then run the various stacks. This would save time and storage.
Everyone can earn more money but time is a lost currency to everyone.
Thanks for the hard work but could we see this soon in AP V2 please?
 
 

Great

Thanks EMT forgot about this

Hi Ash
This works great thanks

Hi Tom
No they are not thanks for making the change

Hi All
It would be really nice to automatically open the rename window when saving new selections. If this were to happen workflow would increase. As it is now I use a short cut Control C which saves the selection but then I have to click right click spare channel and then rename before the window comes up. This suggestion would eliminate time if you do a lot of selections.
Just a thought for the next release or beta.

Hi Jswagner
I agree although my grid setting might be different than yours so I agree a preference setting or group of same would improve workflow a great del.
Hope this gets to the developers. 
Were suffering from improvements
Hope this gets added on the next release
Regards

I agree with Andy
This is a pain and slows my workflow also.
Please fix I would like to make my grid the default.

I submitted another bug report. Sorry if I am Missing things up and confusing you.
Anyway enjoy the holidays and have a happy new year celebration.
Thanks again for all of your assistance and support.

Hi All
I too tried them yesterday and they seemed to work great.

Hi Twolane
I us a mac machine so these instructions are for that platform
You have to select the Luminosity mask, from the new Live layer Mask in the layer menu pull down menu.
Once this is open you go to the pull don menu (upper left corner of the live luminosity range mask, where you will find all of the preset luminosity curves. Just select one and you're off.
Hope this helps

Good luck
 
And send thanks to TV he created the curves, I just explained how to install and use them on a Mac

Hi TV
You're welcome thanks for making them

Hi TV
These are great. For those running mac this Propcol file goes into user/library/group containers/6LVTQB9699.com.seriflabs/V2/user folder
they are then available when selecting the layer, new live mask layer, luminosity range
I tried them and they are great.
Thanks TV

Hi ALL
I can confirm that as Dan advised this works
Great work you're the best and speedy too.

Hi Dan
Thanks for looking into this. I will try this in a bit and let you know the result.
Thanks for the quick response

Hi Walt
Yes there is a folder for preferences and I have copied it, but to no avail, so I will have to suggest it as an update feature
Thanks for your efforts
