arifg got a reaction from Aammppaa in Suggestions for Primary / Secondary color
I have many suggestions to improve this little useful feature;
-Default color button; returns the primary/secondary colors to black and white.
-Change Appearance to stroke/fill mode in Pen,Rectangle and other Shape related tools and also in curve edit mode; Because I think this feature is acting like Affinity Designer's feature when I'm using pen mode. you don't need secondary color when using these tools and it confuses me most of the time.
-Change the appearance of the Color picker, somehow it looks like it doesn't belong there, maybe because the tip is not aligned with the circle next to it.
-Right click is empty so it can be binded to choose secondary color, and to choose stroke color in pen mode.
-Recent colors could be next to Color picker because there is enough space in every color selection panel( i.e. wheel based), for me this is important because it makes my workflow really faster. It's not visible in other slider modes. Also it could be added to Tools under the primary/secondary color viewer, for the tablets it could be really useful.

arifg reacted to JohnP in Presets in Develop Persona
I use presets all of the time but there are a few bugs in the 2.2.0 (1881) build.
After making adjustments to an image I create a preset to use with similar images. In this version, when I apply the preset it does take effect, but the categories below are not "checked" even though the effect is being applied. This makes it difficult to know what effects are actually being applied since they are, but it's not "checked".
Two exceptions to this is that the "Shadows &Highlights" section and "White Balance" ARE always checked, bit they are not doing anything. Which means that I have to "uncheck" them and then "check" them to see the effect. This is true even if I am NOT using presets. They do nothing until I un-check them and the re-check them.
Additionally, even when I "uncheck" and then "check" the White Balance section, I still have to click on one of the sliders (Temp or Tint) to cause the adjustment to take effect.
I am using a MacBook Pro, Apple M1 and running Mac OS Big Sur (11.4)
Thanks,
John P.
