The issue is not stable. Sometimes the photoshop plugins have normal load times.
The reason might be the problem in this thread which I can confirm:
-
The productive Photo 2.04 (unsandboxed version) loads Topaz Sharpen AI in 9 seconds.
Photo beta 2.1.0.1709 (unsandboxed version) needs 35 seconds to load Topaz Sharpen AI.
It is similar with other Photoshop plugins.
My system is Windows 10 64 bit.

Aurora HDR is still working for me in the latest beta 1.10.5.1227.
It is normal that you get 'Unknown' for it but as you have checked 'allow "Unknown" plugins to be used' it should work.

In beta 1.9.1.943 the patch tool works with activated OpenCL acceleration. The developers did a good job 🙂

The problem is still present in beta 1.9.0.932.

In beta 1.9.0.923 the patch tool doesn't work for me too when opencl is activated. The patch tool works when opencl is deactivated.
I have a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 with driver 27.21.14.5671.

The slider to adjust the size of the restauration tool jumps from 1 px at once to 31 px in beta 1.9.0.885. It is not possible to select values between 1 and 31 with the slider. This works in the official version 1.8.5.703.

I can confirm the problem for nef files of my D7200. Show AF Focus is always greyed out in the latest beta and in the latest productive version too.

All exe files of the Nik plugins work standalone without color problems. The python script in Gimp for Viveza calls Viveza 2.exe instead of the plugin file Viveza2.8bf. That's the reason why there are no color problems with Viveza in Gimp.
-
With the free Google Nik plugin Viveza 2 I need 100% zoom to get correct colors for 16-bit tiff files. For 8-bit tiff files and jpeg files 33% zoom are sufficient to get correct colors.

Skylum Luminar Flex and Skylum Aurora 2019 (for single shot HDR images) are working now in AP beta 1.7.2.414. Thanks a lot.

That's not updated to reflect 1.7. Also, that's not an "official" list of supported plugins. It's one of our colleague's help website which, as you can see at the very top, it says
Where can I read which plugins are "officially supported" in 1.7?
Thanks, dke

Hi Gabe,
when I try to work with Nik Dfine2, Nik Sharpener pro 3 or Viveza I get always more or less corrupted preview images. In many cases it looks like an empty chess board. Sometimes the chess board is filled with image fragments. Other plugins (Topaz for example) show not the selection but the whole image which is no problem. Analog efex works as it should.

When you make a selection in affinity photo and call a plugin to work with it on that selection you get a corrupted preview inside the plugin.
This problem occurs in all versions of Affinity Photo (betas included).

Nothing happens when you try to load the plugin. You can see a plugin entry in the protocol. That is all.
In version 1.6.5.135 it was possible to create a single shot HDR with Aurora 2019.
It is a very useful plugin because it is very easy to get great results with Aurora.

Hi Chris,
the problem has nothing to do with bit depth.
In Affinity Photo you can use Skylum Aurora 2019 to create single shot HDR images from 16-bit or 8-bit images.
It is a very useful plugin because it is very easy to get great results with Aurora.
When you try to start Aurora 2019 in beta 1.7.0.367 nothing happens not even with small jpeg files as input. You see a plugin entry in the protocol and that is all.

The problem still exist in beta 1.7.0.367.
Nothing happens when you try to start Skylum Aurora 2019 or Skylum Luminar Flex.

My suggestions:
1. Implement an option to send files from Affinity Photo to other external editors.
2. Fix the following bug: When you make a selection in affinity photo and call a plugin to work with it on that selection you get a corrupted preview inside the plugin.
3. Solve incompatibilty problems with plugins. Many people complain about the color problems with Viveza.

Strange behaviour pefunk. For me every setting below 100% gives wrong colors in Viveza.

Photo beta 2.1.0.1709 (unsandboxed version) loads plugins extremely slow

Good suggestion.
When I disable Open CL I can set the RAM usage to 8192 by typing in the value (the slider still doesn't work) and this setting remains after restarting Photo.
The Photoshop plugins have normal load times then.
