MyEyeOnNature Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I have a major long term investment in managing images in Adobe Lightroom. One very useful feature of Lightroom is to be able to edit an image in another piece of software and update the image in Lightroom. Lightroom allows editing of an image in Photo but modifications are not registered in the Lightroom copy. Is this a glitch in my setup or is it a feature that could be added?

Staff MEB Posted November 23, 2016 Staff Share Posted November 23, 2016 MyEyeOnNature, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) Which format are you using to send the images from Lightroom? Have you checked Enable "Save" over imported PSD files in the Affinity Photo Preferences (v1.5 only), General section? pruus 1 Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickd Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 If you send to AP a copy with Lightroom adjustments and do your thing on it and click save it should come right back to LR without doing anything to your LR copy. I don't know why but sometimes it put's it at the end of the roll and other times next to the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyEyeOnNature Posted November 24, 2016 Author Share Posted November 24, 2016 Thanks MEB and rickd. The solution offered by rickd worked as I prefer my edited Lightroom files to be in TIFF format. Photo looks like a great piece of software and dependent on price may wean me away form Photoshop which I have not updated since it went 'Cloud'.

Smitty Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 If the devs are reading my explanation is over at https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/29497-saveexport-paths-direct-back-to-original-lightroom-directory/?p=143101 However, it is the same thing asked for by the OP here.
