walt.farrell Posted January 10, 2023 Posted January 10, 2023 You must have the Develop Assistant set to use the Serif Labs RAW Engine in order to Develop to an Embedded or Linked RAW layer. If you're using the Apple Engine, you can only Develop to a Pixel layer.

Also note that if you have opened a RAW file while the Develop Assistant is set to the Apple Engine & then change it to the Serif Labs engine, you will have to cancel development, close the RAW file, & reopen it to be able to change to one of the RAW layer outputs. IOW, the assistant change will not take effect while the RAW file is open. walt.farrell 1 Quote All 3 1.10.8, & all 3 V2.6 Mac apps; 2020 iMac 27"; 3.8GHz i7, Radeon Pro 5700, 32GB RAM; macOS 10.15.7 All 3 V2 apps for iPad; 6th Generation iPad 32 GB; Apple Pencil; iPadOS 15.7
