I tried out the Software...But needs some more useful things...


Recommended Posts

Wow, 

First, off I'd like to thank you guys for letting me try this out. I was super excited to try this puppy out. I am an adobe fan Prior to their sill subscription I want to have no part of it. Hence my move to searching for new software to use, I love that there are plenty of similar functions that are used here that you can easily find in lightroom/photoshop/illustrator.  I'm not on a rant I just wanted to throw my two cents in on what would have made me purchase the software after the 5th day of using it. 

Last week I spent 5 days, throwing everything I had at this thing... but a couple of things fell short:

I'd like to see shortcuts bouncing back and forth from layers to brush is silly, unless there are shortcuts i don't know about, but on a GUI level doesn't make sense to click here and click there and click back .. too much click to get to a tool and jump back into an edit. 

Second, not a big deal .. but the buttons / GUI looks old not a deciding factor for me but just throwing it out there. 

third: I was super frustrated with the intuitive workflow of where the panels are, once again if this was a shortcut-friendly software prob wouldnt matter. 

Okay last but not least which is of huge importance .. that 90% would buy this software is... ability to tether your camera to it .. any camera for that matter or pay a small fee to add a camera ability to teather.

That's it. I hope someone sees this and when the version comes out. I would love to take it for another test drive. I will buy it if these changes are incorporated, along with plenty of others that are looking for ways to get out from Adobe's foot.

What does "ability to teather your camera to it" mean please?

If Serif augmented the software as asked, how would it be used and for what purpose could it be used and what results could be achieved, in particular what results could be achieved that could not be achieved already in some way please?
