About to get one but my question is what happens when there are updates in the software that would not be in the book?

Thanks.

Odd. Had to create a new account in the shop? It is different to the account I am using for the forum?

Still seeing the transition back to photo showing a previous edit after using the edit in affinity photo extension.

Should I be having a problem with the Beta extensions showing in Photo? Edit. Forget that. They have popped up some time later. So, give it 20 mins or so if they are not immediately there.

Not sure this has been covered.Shifted from the wrong beta thread. From Apple Photo, use the edit in affinity extension, edit away etc. Decide to leave the image alone and un altered and revert back to Photo by closing down Affinity and the Photo window retains a previous edit to action before continuing.

Edit. This beta 1. Not reading the title properly. Shifting to 5.

Ah fudge. OK, I am finding why I went away from Photos.......... :angry: Look at the edited in the main Photo viewer and the info says RAW. Look at it in the simple photo editor and it is JPEG. Click revert to original and it is back to RAW however the way Apple Photo works with RAW in its menus is frustrating. However. This extension is looking like it will do what I want. I can export from the Affinity editor then revert to original back in Photo and leave it as it was, or edited for the family etc. Might be getting there. But see now that it is as you said a few posts up. Canon Digital Photo Professional is quite good though and wonder now how to combine them. I pretty much use Affinity more than anything for editing but checking and some RAW on Canon, maybe that is an ask to link easily to or from? Will mess with the tiff options later.

Ah, so you now have me wondering if the info on my returned cropped was actually pointing to the original in the "masters" inside the photo library but the modified one was a JPEG in the main viewer but it did not show on the info (as it was pointing to the original)? After modifying the image in such a way it would stand out from the original, the crop, I searched for the file name. Still using the same one the camera had issued and it only showed up once. As a RAW. Must make not of the sizes then and compare again. More experimenting later I think. I deleted the images (they were a test). Personally I liked iPhoto for my humble needs but Photo went the wrong way but this extension may do what I want as I am wanting to iCloud stuff. At the moment I have no real DAM, Photoshop Elements is what I tried, but not 100% liking it. Tried the trial of Lightroom but not sold, tried DxO and missed the boat on the sale for the new one so fishing for another angle that ties my iThings together. Just a fussy sod really. Saying that I still use the Canon editor more often for getting started and fire that off to Affinity on occasion. That is quite handy for checking focus and deleting stuff quickly.

Think I managed to get one back as raw and replace the original. However when I dug in the "masters" folder, the original was there. The front pane preview on photos was showing the edited version. Need to play some more, any nots on this?

Maybe answered elsewhere, can I ask how the image is dealt with going to and from Apple Photos? I tried an app recently that created a copy of each image in the user library to preserve the original, which of course increases disk space usage on every use. Then there was format limitations.

OK, I have everything up to date. I can zoom in to at least 75% on the saved tiffX3 and it is there. Not seeing your attachment but see no reason to doubt it. Attached is a copy of what mine looks like. Edit. diving into my setting to see what I have wrong then? Edit 2. Stacked four or five of them and the displayed image is OK (as opposed to opening a single one). Save that stack as 8 bit tiffX3 and back to blocky.

HI Darren, has this link worked?

Yeah, I rejected that when looking for a backup option. :) I was looking for the option on this web site, I assumed there was a method here. I saw others could uplink files but I assume they are all images, the .cr2 is the issue I think? Just looking at my backup plan and there is a share room option. Never used it so looking to set it up. OK, this might work https://spideroak.com/browse/share/Jpics/Testpics
