I'd like to know too. +1 -
Window Close/Minimize/Zoom button positions wrong
Revanian replied to anthroid's topic in V1 Bugs found on macOS
It appears now (v2.2) that the glyphs have totally been removed on hover. Is this intended? -

Any word on this? It's a small bug but annoying. -
I agree and it would be cool to see Serif's implementation of such a product. I was in the same predicament trying to navigate away from the dual Lightroom versions Adobe pushed and settled on using Photos on Mac along with AP. The Photos app extensions made for a passable solution and now with Photomator released for Mac along with Pixelmator Pro/Affinity Photo it may have potential. Are you on Mac or Windows?

A.I. Selection Tool
Revanian replied to Balveda's topic in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products
While I don't care for Adobe's renting model, at least they are improving their products at a steady pace. I'm hopeful as well for Affinity though. -

A.I. Selection Tool
Revanian replied to Balveda's topic in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products
I agree as well. While advanced, I'm wondering if Serif views Affinity as a true professional tool or more for prosumers? Either way when consumer grade applications offer these kind of tools it makes me wonder. -

Photomator is releasing a Mac version soon that I've been interested in. It may be worth checking out. I am surprised though that there isn't more discussion around this topic in general seeing how prevalent AI/ML tools are in a wide assortment of graphics applications now. Even something as common as subject selection is absent in Affinity Photo. -
With any image loaded > close the main window > click the AP icon in the dock to open the main window again and the previous image layer and information will persist. Shouldn't closing the window also fully close the open document?

Thanks for the follow up. I'm using Apple Photos as my main DAM until I can find something better that works with iCloud photos (maybe Photomator) so having this integration/handoff work well is important.

What I meant was the dynamic range when editing akin to editing a RAW vs say a jpg file. The amount of detail you're able to recover is far less in the jpg. Where do you go to choose to edit in the Photo persona in 16 bit? To my knowledge this was only selected when outputting the file like a Tiff and at this point the edits would have already been made. I am trying to understand if it's still being handled like a RAW file in the Photo persona once I click develop using the embedded RAW option. Yes, but it's not as good imo.
-
When choosing to develop with an embedded RAW and then going back into the Photo Persona, are any edits made still respecting the increased dynamic range and other characteristics of the RAW file or are they developed into a compressed format to work with once in the Photo Persona regardless? I'm asking since recovering shadows, applying an HSL, etc. selectively could be done better with the Photo Persona's selection brush, which the Develop Persona lacks. However if I'm not able to have that same extended range that I would in the Develop Persona then it's not ideal.

Following up on this topic to see if there were any new developments with 2.1. Separately, with v1 there were many more AP extensions for Apple Photos, were they removed for a reason or will they be coming back later?

I agree, those recent updates have made me look at Lightroom again I just don't like renting the software. Affinity seems to be the odd duck out with these technologies as most do include ML/AI versions of these tools, like Pixelmator Pro/Photomator and Luminar. As unexpected as it sounds I get the feeling that photographers are underserved with Affinity Photo, comparatively speaking. I'd like to be proven wrong though.
