DEVELOP Dialog Box in Photo

[Laura Ess]

OK, it's nice to have the DEVELOP Persona, but exiting it should be easier and less confusing than it is.

If you make a minor (or major) change in this, and then select another persona directly, the dialog box shown below pops up. Now clearly what it's trying to do is get the user to press either the DEVELOP or CANCEL button in the top left corner. However, why not just have those options - DEVELOP or CANCEL - in the dialog box itself? Then it's not a matter of double handling, the user commits or cancels and goes directly to the other persona.

I asked for this loooong ago.
Serif simply does not care about usability. Instead we got "normals adjustments" :-/

We also got a truly non-destructive RAW development process, which was something else we were asking for.

That´s true.
But on the other hand: that feature was long overdue...

And there's me not using RAW that much. Duh!

Pressing OK in the Dialog box will Develop the image and return you to the Photo Persona

Pressing Cancel will return you to where you were in the Develop persona. Having Cancel do the same thing as the Cancel button in the Develop persona would cause you to lose all the edits you had done so far and return you to the Photo persona. I don't think users would expect that to happen in that particular dialog box. Cancel should just cancel (close) that Dialog box not cancel all your edits so far.
