Hi Cecil, Workflow was; select photo in Photos app, select edit, select edit in affinity photo from the extensions list photo opened in AP, did edits, Select file:close:save in AP switch to Apple Photos, select save changes Then back in the edit function of Apple Photos. Revert to original option was available so was able to toggle between original and modified (ctr+z). select done to go back to thumbnails. revert to original remained available when I went back into edit in Apple Photos. This is exactly as it was before Catalina for me.

Updated to V1.8 yesterday morning. The problem with edit with affinity photo not working since updating to Catalina appears to be fixed for me, Applied 1.81 this morning and tried editing from within the photos edit in AP extension option, all worked OK just closing and saving the AP document after editing. Came back into photos, got the flattening message, save changes and everything worked as normal, was able to revert back within photos as normal. Also worked using edit with from right click on thumbnail. Only difference is that it appears as if the metadata isn't passed through to AP and opens up straight into the photo persona even though it is an Olympus Raw File (.ORF). Return trip into photos worked fine. Seems like a very complex problem to solve though. I made sure that Photos was quit when I did the AP upgrade, don't know if that made a difference or not.

Hi, I'm very new to the forum so apologise if this has been covered somewhere else but I haven't been able to find anything on the forum that covers my problem. I have purchased Affinity Photo 1.6.11 (I think I'll love it when I get my head around how to use it efficiently, have immersed myself in the tutorials which are fantastic but I'm a slow learner) and installed it on my iMac running Mojave. All applications are up to date. I initially installed the trial version which worked fine before I purchased. Since installing the store bought version the Edit with Affinity Photo extension does not work, it fails to open the document, but the other extensions do work. I have run Affinity from the Admin account and the same problem exists there as well. I have unchecked the extensions from the system preferences panel and rechecked them after closing and reopening photos. I have also deleted the trial version of Affinity Photo using the Appcleaner application. Have attached image of the error message I get after selecting the Edit with Affinity Photo extension below. Any help greatly appreciated.
