[Leica Monochrom DNG Problem]

Can someone help with this issue ?

[Leica Monochrom DNG Problem]

I love using the AP software and am becoming more comfortable, though there is yet a lot to learn.

 

Loading my Leica Monochrom  (Typ 246) DNG files , will often (not always) bring up a strange issue-

 The screen gets split into 2 horizontally, and the bottom half is completely black. The upper half is split vertically in half with  the full uploaded image is seen as a duplicate - one in each half.

 

Don't know if this is some inadvertent setup error on my part or a software issue.

Strangely, it does not always happen, and I'm not sure of what -if anything - I'm doing differently. AFAIK, this has not occured with the Leica  M240 files.

Hope some can help figure this problem. Thanks in advance...

[Slow loading AP on iMac]

I wonder if the posters that say that AP/AD is slow in certain things like on startup, tasks, etc, that it doesn't have to do with how clean the mac is. Surely not everyone has the same hygiene as the everyone else but if one practices good mac hygiene to clear out junk, caches, trash, etc and keep an eye on their RAM use would many of the issues posted be resolved. I personally like my mac pretty clean. I use Onyx all the time, and a couple other apps for maintenance, keep my desktop clean, and my mac is silky smooth - 2012 Mac Pro 16GB RAM, ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB. nothing special in hardware.

 

I'm sure that is a consideration. I use Cleanmymac 3 (current version), but do have a somewhat cluttered desktop. I intend to clean up some of that - just wondered if there were any setup options in AP (memory usage etc.) that I was unaware of...

No, unfortunately that did not make it any faster.

[Slow loading AP on iMac]

I just bought Affinity Photo from the Apple Store, and love the program, even thought there is  a steep learning curve.

Everyone else seems to find it quick, but mine seems very slow to load pictures. On average  it takes  5 or more seconds for the Raw photos, and easily more than a minute for  a "stack" of 6 or 8 images.

Am I doing something wrong, or is there a way to improve speed by setting up differently ?

I have a 27" iMac, from 2010, with 2 drives, (one a Steady state), and 12 GB of RAM, running El Capitan 10.11.2

I would have thought this would be resource enough for the program. Could someone help, please ?
