NeonBean Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Hi everyone! I`m facing problem here with my my mockup file. So the file format is PSDT and this doesn´t open in Affinity Photo. To solve I tried to save this file in Photoshop as: Save as > PSD file, but it somehow saves it as PSD image file , even though it showed also its just regular PSD file. The problem here is that the smart object layer is not reacting as it should be and its showing it in AP as pixel layer, in PS it shows it as linked to down masked object, but in AP its just embedded layer and under it is no mask. Thats why mockup dont work at all, I dunno how to get smart objects form PS to AP correctly.... first 2 pics are Photoshop and other 2 Affinity Photo If anyone knows what I could try, it would be big help! Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff stokerg Posted July 19, 2022 Staff Share Posted July 19, 2022 Hi @NeonBean, As you've found out, we can't open PSDT files. But for the PSD file, have you enabled Import PSD Smart Objects (where supported) in Preferences for Affinity? If you enable that and reopen the PSD file, does it work?

Cheers! It seems that you are experiencing difficulties opening a PSDT file in Affinity Photo. Here are some suggestions to help you resolve this issue: File Format Compatibility: Affinity Photo may not support the PSDT file format. The PSDT format is not a standard Photoshop file format and may not be compatible with other image editing software. It is recommended to save the file in a standard PSD format instead. Saving as PSD: When saving the file in Photoshop as a PSD, make sure to select the correct file format. It should be saved as a regular PSD file, not a PSD image file. Double-check the file format options when saving to ensure it is saved correctly. Smart Object Conversion: Affinity Photo may handle smart objects differently compared to Photoshop. When opening a PSD file in Affinity Photo, the smart object may be converted to an embedded layer, which can affect its functionality. Try converting the smart object to a regular layer in Photoshop before saving and opening it in Affinity Photo. Layer Mask: If the smart object in Affinity Photo does not have a mask, it may be due to differences in how masks are handled between the two software. You can try recreating the mask in Affinity Photo manually to achieve the desired effect. Compatibility Issues: It is possible that certain features or functionalities of the PSD file may not be fully supported in Affinity Photo. This can result in differences in how the file is displayed or edited. In such cases, it may be necessary to make adjustments or find alternative methods to achieve the desired outcome in Affinity Photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
