AP not working with Capture One Pro . . .

[AwesomeNature]

Downloaded Affinity Photo 1.3.4 last night and impressed so far . . . . one big problem though: I'm trying to do a ‘round trip’ with Capture One Pro 8.2.2 and they don’t seem to be talking to each other properly. Here's the process:

 

Edit a RAW file in Capture One

In CO, click 'File', 'Edit with', fill in the option boxes (choosing TIFF, etc) and select AP in the 'Open with' box

A TIFF thumbnail appears in the CO browser and AP opens up with the TIFF displayed

Edit the new TIFF with AP then hit 'save'

Back in CO I now have a dilaogue box open which says 'generating previews - Less than a minute left'

Wait, wait and wait - nothing. The TIFF thumbnail in CO is still showing the TIFF before editing in AP,

Try closing & reopenning CO - still no change to the TIFF thumbnail

 

I've tried various other ways, e.g. using 'save as' in AP to generate a complete new TIFF but CO then just shows a black box in the browser.

 

- all very frustrating as if I could get the two to talk together this could be a great combination - any ideas anyone??

 

thanks

I have this same problem with Affinity Photo 1.3.5 as well, with C1 8.2.3. Does anyone have it working?

Can you try to flatten the layers in Affinity hit Save and check if it updates the TIFF on Capture One?

I don't have Capture One so i'm just guessing here.

I have found that using the "Edit with..." feature now seems to work. I have round-tripped many images now and it works smoothly. I have the latest version of capture one.

I tested with a single layer in Affinity, so nothing to flatten. It just refuses to load in Capture One.

@senduran,

Thanks for letting me know.
