MacGB Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 All of the extensions for Apple Photo's don't work. They fire up Affinity, but nothing can be applied. As a stand alone app. it runs fast. Update: They will work with jpeg, however not with RAW-files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacGB Posted November 17, 2020 Author Share Posted November 17, 2020 A small update deploying the RAW behavior further. When I use for instance the extension "Affinity Monochrome" Affinity fires up and shows just a full color picture. When I change the sliders nothing seems to happen, however when I save back the picture is monochrome, but in this way I just cannot see the effect in advance. However with the same procedure, after moving the picture down it wil show partly monochrome, and afterwards moving up it will show completely monochrome and I can use the sliders in realtime. So I will be able to see the edits "real-time" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacGB Posted November 17, 2020 Author Share Posted November 17, 2020 Similar things happen by using the other extensions like, Retouch, Liquify, Miniature etc. After opening Affinity from Photos using the extension, nothing seems to happen, but after scrolling th picture up and down in the Affinity window, I will be able to see what I am doing. Then again, only using RAW. It doesn't matter if I use the RAW engine from sherif or the one from Apple. It results in the same behavior. For jpegs it's ok. Is there a setting in Affinity that I need to modify, or is this indeed a "Bug" Thanks Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted November 20, 2020 Staff Share Posted November 20, 2020 Hi MacGB, Thanks for reporting this. I'm seeing the same behaviour here. Issue logged to be looked at. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacGB Posted November 23, 2020 Author Share Posted November 23, 2020 @MEB You're welcome, Hope for a "quick fix". It's quite cumbersome to work . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milohosi Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 I have a related problem when I use the "Edit in Affinity" extension. The file (JPG) opens in Affinity for editing. After editing, it is saved back to Photos, and the edits are visible in the Edit window of Photos. But when I click the "Save edits" button in Photos, I get an unexpected error message, so that the edits cannot be saved to the Photos library.

MacGB Posted December 9, 2020 Author Share Posted December 9, 2020 Want happens if you “flatten” the document before saving ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
