neifp Posted October 2, 2024 Posted October 2, 2024 Hi, hoping this is a simple Duoh! one. When I used to use Lightroom, when I opened an image in Nik Color Efex Pro 5 it would ask if I wanted to edit using the image with the changes already made by Lightroom. In Affinty, Color Efex it seems to open the original image with no cropping or other adjustments. Any suggestions? Cheers Quote
walt.farrell Posted October 2, 2024 Posted October 2, 2024 Welcome to the Affinity forums. You can probably use Layer > Merge Visible to add a single merged pixel layer at the top of the stack for the plug-in to operate on. Other than that, I have no ideas.

JohnZeman Posted October 3, 2024 Posted October 3, 2024 FWIW after I've used Affinity Photo to develop a raw photo I next duplicate and rasterize the base layer in the Photo Persona. Then I create a snapshot before sending that rasterized layer to Efex Color pro and after that plug-in is done with it I do the rest of the processing in Photo. This workflow works great for me and I've never had any problems doing it this way. Quote
