Sorry MikeFromMesa but the Shadows & Highlights controls are not enough, It would definitely be great if one could add this feature. Jeffrey is definitely right, when the highlight is blown out, it is impossible to fix it properly.
Yes Leigh, in Preview, the highlight is blown out too. Toyotadesigner, it is not always possible when you have to take a picture quickly to check the histogram, and the viewer and the screen are to tiny to see such details. Sorry billtils and MikeFromMesa, but the information is ther and it is possible to reduce it in apps like Aperture and Lightroom. Aperture is dead, and only a 32 bit app, and I prefer not to use Adobe’s apps. I love Affinity Photo, it is a great app, and I would be very happy if I could do all my RAW development on it without using a third part app…
