saving work done AP2

[mikerofoto]

I'm trying AP2 now, of course there's difference from V1 but, after doing some work, cmd-s used to save within that tiff file im working on, now in V2 it's saving as .afphoto file or exporting a new file. what's going on, why can't i just save that tiff file with that i got, merged everything down so only background is left, even if i rasterize.

 

thanks

Just export as tiff!

There's a bug, so you'll have to Export instead.

(It doesn't seem to be logged as such yet. I'll check on that later.)

thanks for the answer guys. it just didn't make sense to me to save / export another tiff file, then delete the one i'm working on.

Why can't you just export to the same name/location as the original? You were going to overwrite it anyway.

i know at the end it's the same, just weird.

also even if i create an export preset, it doesn't save it like i never created one last night. and if i change the name of the file on export... when uploading online it reverse to original file name =/

Sorry, but I have no idea what you mean there.

you can create a preset for exporting, like 8bit / bicubic. i did saved this preset but it doesn't stick there like i never created one before. and for the file name, let say the initial name of the file was 345_678 and i rename that file on export for _345678, it doesn't seem to save it that way and revert it to original file name 345_678, maybe it rely on the file data and not the name you attribute during export? maybe it's a bug i don't know.
