It would be really, really, REALLY nice, if it was possible to work on one image (of many in a sequence), then select "Copy settings" (with the option to exclude some or not), which will preserve all operations, rotations, sizing, modifications and whatnot done to the original. Then enter batch mode or whatever could be agreed upon, select the images to be processed (one to many - in my most recent case 398 images), and "paste settings", whereafter each of the selected images in the sequence undergo the exact same process, as the "master" image. No problem at all in Lightroom. Typically a case of seconds or a few minutes at most. I often need to work on sequences of images - extracted from video - that need heavy processing (available light scenes) - or just modifications to create i.e. moving "filled outlines" or other even more elaborate effects. Currently I use Lightroom for "image cosmetics" working on "intermediate lossless formats" extracted via FFMPEG. A lot of things can be made via Lightroom (and videos initially lost due to quality issues have actually been salvaged that way). It's quick and dirty, but it works, and Lightroom is in some respects extremely powerfull as a multi-image/sequence/video editor. Regards

Hello Affinity team, it is great to finally being able to test Photo in Windows, thank you so much for providing an alternative to Photoshop! I have a question regarding the integration of Photo in my Lightroom workflow: I have added Photo as an external editor in Lightroom, and selected ProPhoto 16-bit TIFF as the file format. The picture opens up in Photo, but as soon as I want to save my picture (even if I did not make any changes), I can save it only as file type .afphoto. This is true no matter if I select Save or Save As. The same is true if I select PSD instead of TIFF as the file format. This means that currently I am unable to make any changes in Photo that would be recognized by Lightroom. I cannot imagine that Photo would not even me to save changes using the same file format the picture was opened in? Thank you very much in advance for the clarification on the file format for saving pictures. I would also appreciate some hints on how to best integrate Photo with Lightroom. Robert -
I edit my images with Lightroom- for further processing I change to affinity- Can i safe the picture and change to Lightroom without detours. Thank you for answers. -
I am making a determined effort to wean myself off of Adobe Creative Cloud, (Lightroom & Photoshop) and replace them with Affinity Photo but I am worried about losing the ability to use Photoshop plugins, (Nik & Topaz Collections) if I unsubscribe from Adobe Creative Cloud. Am I right to assume that if I do unsubscribe from CC it will not affect my usage of the plugins in Affinity Photo? Many thanks for advice. Andrew-Bede -
Hallo to everyone, i was wondering why i can open from lightroom in Affinity in PSD format, but after i can't have it back in lightroom, if i use a tif file or jpeg the is no problem... but not with PSD.. Missing something? -
Hello! I just this morning got a tip from some site about Affinity Photo. I'm tired of paying for the subscription I'm currently have with LR and PS CC. I'm importing and fixing the most of my pictures in LR. Some of them, portraits for example, I also edit in PS. LR is easy and fast but I'm feeling that I'm not using it enough to pay the subscription fees. I can buy two Affinity Photo for the same money as a year of LR + PS. Is there anyone who made the switch who had the same workflow as me? Is Affinity a good replacement if I use LR? Any tips for a good way of cataloguing my photos as LR? -
I am working with Affinity Photo and Lightroom. I would like to save layered tiff or psd dokuments in AP, so that i can find them and work on them back in Lightroom. AP is not able to do that. So i have to save my pictures in afphoto-format. But now there is no way to find my pictures again besides from the Finder. Even the AP-own Media Browser does not show afphoto-files!!! How can that be? Is there a media browser in the market, that let´s me find my afphoto-pictures again? Thanx.. -
Hi Guys, I Really like both AP and AD, I am however stumbling upon a problem using different colour profiles when roundtripping via tiff from lightroom (version 4). Simply put, when using sRGB and Adobe RGB the colours in LR (library module) and AP are consistent. Using the ProPhoto profile however, the colours are 'wrong'/different in AP as are the grey levels. I searched the forum but could not find a suitable answer. Any editing using this preferred profile is therefore pointless. I also checked the file in preview and Pixelmator, both were next to identical to the LR view leaving only AP different. I am attaching two screen shots; one from LR in library module, the other from AP. Same tiff file. Also a screenshot from the file information is attached. The ProPhoto icc is available on my system. System Information: 2013 Mac Pro, Dual D300 OS: El Capitan Lightroom 4.4 AP 1.4 Spyder 3 Color Calibration (also checked with the default profile from apple, no joy) Hope you can help or fix the problem. Wouter

I don't know if this is possible. Today i do all my Photo-Editing in Lightroom, only for heavy composing purposes i switch to Affinity Photo (previous Photoshop ;-). Now... my LR/Affinity/LR-Workflow goes like this: - open the raw as psd copy in Affinity-Photo (psd becomes visible in Lightroom). - Do my work on the opened psd-file in Affinity-Photo. - save the work does forces the .aphoto Format, which is saved beside the psd. - Now i export the work as psd - what overwrites the previous opened psd - (which is visible in LR). - I make some virtual copys of the psd to do variations for the finish (i use all that develop stuff in LR for that) - If i want to do some more work on the file, i klick in LR on the PSD, and do the "show in finder" command. There i locate the .aphoto file and open it in Affinity-Foto for additional work. After finishing my work i do step 4 and 5. It may be useful to have a LR-Plugin that can handle the .aphoto directly. What do you think? -
Will it soon be possible to be able to access Affinity Photo from within Lightroom...as we an currently for Photoshop CC as well as Photomatix and other photo editors? Thank you!! -
Hi, I am a new affinity user. Having come over from Adobe CC I would preview my images in LR before importing to PS for editing. What are the raw image preview options you recommend? I like affinity once I have the correct image selected to import, but it's finding the right image and evaluating/comparing them before import that's now the issue. Thanks, Bec -
What do you reckon should be the flatten image policy? . I am looking at exporting for fine art printing. It would be great publishing a comprehensive tutorial on layers and files . Seems to me that this the main difference from Photoshop and the main obstacle for photographers like me who wants to make the transition and use PSCC, LR and AP In the same workflow . The videos are great but they need to detail a complete workflow and its various options. Thank you! -
Hi, I have bought Affinity Photo last night after 2 days of searching on the net. I have been using Lightroom for 1 year, as hobby and semi-pro works. I really enjoy it but i feel that I should move forward and Lightroom is just a quick package edit tool limits you in some ways. I have never used Adobe PS, and I have to learn everything here with Affinity Photo. What would you offer me for the start for fast learning? Should I start to watch all of Affinity Tutorial videos with taking notes and ailing them on my photos? or would it be good to watch Adobe PS tutorials too, as it has more source to watch and read and not that different from Affinity Photo? Thank you' Oflatun -
I'm really enjoying affinity photo and designer software, and it will be great if affinity creates a program to manage the content and photos, like bridge, lightroom, aperture, iPhoto, Photos, etc...

Hi, I don't see a place to add metadata to an image. This would be an important feature especially to me as a professional photographer, thanks. Also, export to lightroom would also be a good feature to add. -
Hi there, I'm testing Affinity Photo, like what I currently see and what's on the roadmap. However, I don't care at all for Media Browser. Since I use Lightroom right now, any other options besides that? Open source? lower cost? Thanks in advance. -
Well the subject tells it all : Make chafing the brush size a very nifty and much more intuitive operation like Adobe Lightroom can do. J. -
Hi Would it be possible, and therefore perfect :-) to create just like in lightroom a brush inside the develop-mode to adjust for example exposure locally? thanks in advance Looking great!

So, first off sorry if posted somewhere else. I did spend a bit of time searching and didn't see an answer. I don't know that this falls under the RAW file load issues either. I am testing out 'Photo' with some .cr2 files that I have already processed through "Lightroom4". While the file I'm loading is the .cr2 file, it is also loading the sidecar information that was created when I made my corrections in Lightroom. Is there a way to turn this off and load the original .cr2? One a 2nd note for that, I am also seeing color shifts between the file that has been loaded, vs the file open in lightroom. Same working color profile of Prophoto RGB with the same calibrated monitor. Any thoughts here?

When you finish working on affinity photo then It would be great if you made simple app which replace lightroom and discontinued aperture. Also I think making that app in this year would be business wise decision because you can use all the fuss about photo editing programs on apple app market. -
One of the things that really bugged me about my PS / LR workflow is the way that Photos would get passed back and forth between the two apps. With a typical workflow you start with a Photo in LR and then need to send it to PS to do something that LR can't do. LR makes a copy of the photo so when you are done editing it you now have two similar photos in your library. If you decide you want to edit the photo again you now have three copies and then four etc. The way this operation should really work is you make an adjustment in Apple's upcoming Photos app, say move the brightness to 27, and then when you export the file to Affinity Photo it uses the same photo instead of a copy of the photo. You should then see your brightness adjustment of 27 in Affinity Photo and then be able to make an adjustment to the brightness again to 15 which should then show up in the settings to Apple's app as you return back to it. I can understand some of the reasons why Adobe's workflow was clumsy, they were trying to get a 17 year old app to work with a brand new app after all. But now that both Apple and Affinity are both starting out at version 1 and at essentially the exact same time let's try and get the way this works under control. I disagree with many people on this forum that Adobe's photo solution works pretty well I think there is a huge opportunity for taking on Adobe in this area.
