I'm going through different setting for saving files on my hard drive, always saving as .tiff so I got more range of colours with whatever program to be use with.
now I'm having some issues and i've been trying many ways of saving with AP and came to that.
NEF file is = 69MB
save as .tiff 16bit from NEF = 272.7MB
open/modified and exporting from AP=
save as affinityphoto format 8bit = 482.4MB
clicking cmd/S for saving with layer 8bit = 546.7MB
export as .tiff without layer 8bit = 33.6MB
export as .tiff without layer 16bit = haven't tried that yet
-so the question is, why would saving with layer triple the file size?, and that's only using layers and mask, no added images finishing with merge visible.
-changing to 8bit from 16bit and deleting the background in snapshot before saving or exporting.
how can I save my files with layers without reaching the 500MB size?
thanks

here’s a link for supported plugin in AP, none of Macphun are compatible

is it worth updating to high sierra just for that?
that's my main concern, I use DxO lab now for camera / lens correction then send it from there to AP.

here’s an easy place to go, select your colour than click on mono or complement or triad etc.

just received mine in the mail, pretty fast shipping!

install the youtube app, you can find them all there too instead of vimeo

exporting dng to jpeg 8bit/16bit and colour profile like adobe 1998 or srgb make a difference.
can you give more info?

I am no geek on computer to figure out this but, how or what does it take to make those plugin working?

I have a D850. I really need support of the RAW files since Affinity photo is my only photo editing software.
you can always use NX-D to get the camera/lens correction then send it to AP. that’s the down part of owning a new camera body, its a matter of time before all software get the update.
-
-Lr, DxO and Capture One are the 3 that I know support D850, and Nikon software.
-coming with their next update, Luminar will support it.
-Picktorial are working on, the camera profile is done but they need some fine tuning to work on all Mac.

Does it not appear on the program's splash screen when you first run the new version? I'm on Windows but that's certainly what happened for me.

it won’t show you the welcome screen if its unchecked, so you don’t see it everytime you start AP
-
check “news and information”
you’ll find others had asked the same question.
open AP and top right menu click ”help” and you’ll see “welcome” which will open the screen to download the freebies.
Affinity forum and Affinity are two different login
-
to get the Welcome screen, open AP and to the top right menu click “help” and you’ll see “welcome” that will open it and you’ll have the screen so you can click geet free stuff.
reminder that forum login is different than Affinity login. just so people don’t get confused like I did this morning

I just updated to AP 1.6 and can't login..... well account not recognized.
problem solved, forum and Serif are two different account.
you guys can delete this thread, thanks for the help

in one they were working on for a release early 2016, in another they are working for a publisher replacement first, in a last one, they are not working on a DAM.
so best bet is to get photomechanic for fast culling and cataloging/viewing your images. maybe there will be one for 2020
Lr, ON1, Capture One has one and Luminar is coming with one as well, so these are also some option. Alienskin, Paintshop Pro and ACDSee have image browser?

There is no import option for the swatches for AP on the iPad, this has been asked for by other users on the Feature request section on our forum and it may be added to a future build of the app.
thanks, I guess I didn't find that tread

Nice! ....good job I didn't release all the brushes!
I like the 3D Minion glasses..I must get a pair....
well.... you keep me busy
found those glasses for 5$ in theatre when the movie was still playing.
-
well.... I renamed them, so instead of being pack1, pack2, pack3... until 12, I named them as on your pdf file, so the first 5,6,7,30,31 to 39 so they are easier to find than having to bring the pointer over for the name to show up.
the other pack are easy because they start with paintB instead of TB DOTS
like this screenshot.
and yes these 3D minion glass are terrific for protrait =)

nice job, now I'm soooo lost with all of them, just installed them but brush # don't match with the pdf # or maybe I'm missing something.
alors c'est la seul façon de la voir encore.

thanks, I know .tiff are big, I have quite a few around 1GB per image, I just wanted to see if there’s a way to save some space other than jpeg. I tried flatten, which really just turn to be about the same (+/-50MB) as exporting a 16bit .tiff without keeping layers.
