Assistant Options To change initial develop settings:

On the Toolbar, do the following:

  1. Click the Develop Assistant to open its settings dialog.
  2. Choose from the following settings:
    • RAW Engine: Provides a choice of RAW processing engines for you to use—Affinity's own Serif Labs engine or Apple's Core Image RAW engine.
    • Lens corrections: Enable or disable automatic lens correction for supported camera lens profiles. Lens profiles are installed with the app. If a camera is not included (perhaps a new model), you can include it by adding its profile (a downloaded xml file) in the database by using Preferences>General.
    • Noise reduction: Automatically enables either color noise reduction, color and luminance noise reduction, or disables any initial noise reduction. Color noise reduction is recommended for the vast majority of camera raw images.
    • RAW output format: Choose between RGB (16 bit) or RGB (32 bit HDR) output when developing a raw image. Choosing RGB (32 bit HDR) allows you to maintain a full 32-bit float environment from initial raw development to export and take advantage of extra precision.
    • Tone curve: If the default 'Apply tone curve' option is active, your raw image is adjusted using a suggested tone curve. The 'Take no action' option makes no tonal correction; the image can be altered within the Basic panel later.
    • Alert when assistant takes an action: When checked, a pop-up message appears on loading the RAW image to indicate that adjustments have been applied automatically.
    • Exposure bias: Choose whether to apply exposure bias value if stored in the raw image's EXIF data. Like Histogram stretch, both 'default' and 'initial' give the same results but reports zeroed or actual values, respectively. The 'Take no action' option ignores the exposure bias value.
    • Map default region: Sets the region that displays in the Location panel, if the raw image contains no GPS location data in its EXIF data.

If you choose not to apply initial develop settings, your images will not undergo any processing. They may look flat, dull in tone and lacking contrast, but you will have absolute control in how the image is processed.

Further you can make/adjust settings and define them as a named selectable spec ...
