Digs Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Dear All, I am facing a issue when opening photo in Nik collection filter from Affinity photo. I have taken the photo in Vertical / portrait mode in camera. Photo appears correctly in Affinity photo in Vertical oritentation but when I open the same photo in any Nik Collection filter, it appears in landscape mode. May be I am missing few settings. Is there anything you can help? Kind Regards, Digambar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron P. Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 I tried searching the forums for why this might be happening, and came up empty. I did find where there is/was an issue with Iphone pics. Could you attach one of your images that's causing this issue so we can check to see if the problem might be in the image, your camera's formatting?

Spagz Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Same exact problem here. I just installed Affinity Photo 1.10.4 and the latest NIK collection on a two week old 16" MacPro M1 Max. Image files in Affinity photo will open rotated 90 degrees in the NIK collection apps, even if they are identified as (pixel) images in the layers palette in Affinity Photo. What you have to do, and I think this is kind of stupid, is right click on the (pixel) image, then in the pop-up menu look for "Rasterize Image", it's near the bottom, then click on that (Rasterize Image). Once you do that it will open correctly in any of the NIK plug-ins. Hope this helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Rostron Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 I recall seeing an explanation of this as being due to a flag in the Exif component of the image. You can alter this with suitable software, but appying Rasterise (either through right-click or Layer > Rasterise) seems to be the simplest workaround. As a matter of interest, if you explicitly rotate a (pixel) image (using Document > Document 90deg clockwise), then call a Nik plugin, the plugin shows the unrotated image. If you Rasterise first, then it shows it OK. The Topaz, and some other plugins also show the same behaviour (at least those that I have tried).
