MarcH Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Possible issues: 1. In the develop module you cannot place measurement points on the image. 2. The Details slider in Noise Reduction is having no effect. Some nice to haves: 1. The ability to "switch" the overlays on and off 2. The ability to save the overlays 3. When using Curves can the panel be resizeable to make placing points easier and can Input and Output values of individual points be shown and adjustable 4. Can the channels histogram be resizeable I can recover more highlight details using Affinity than other raw converters (DXO, NX-D, PhotoNinja). A brilliant piece of software, can't wait to give you my money. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_K Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Hi BPMH To place measurement points in the Develop persona you need to click and drag form the target on the info panel I shall look into the details with noise reduction Thanks for the other suggestions Serif Europe Ltd - Check the latest news at www.affinity.serif.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcH Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 Apologies, you are correct the measurement points do work when you drag from the info panel. Thanks for the fast response. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrym Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Hi BPMH, I pointed out those 1 & 2 issues + a couple of other issues a while ago and didn't get any response. It seemed pretty obvious that the feature set for the develop module was not going to change for the product release, they have to cut dev somewhere. That's fair enough but it does mean that as there is no sidecar or equivalent anything set in the develop module becomes destructive after developing the raw. IMHO just not usable as it stands but they have to have some thing to upgrade! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcH Posted December 9, 2016 Author Share Posted December 9, 2016 Harrym, You are right, this is also giving me the problem of duplicating raw settings across a series of images (in this case breaching whales) such that they all are "the same". To get round it I'm using either Photoninja or DXO as my raw develop (very easy to copy settings from one raw image to a series) then composite in Affinity Photo.

Chris_K Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Hi Harrym & BPMH The use of a sidecar file is something that we are intending to include at some point so this functinality will come. A non-destructive RAW workflow has been on our roadmap for a little while Serif Europe Ltd - Check the latest news at www.affinity.serif.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrym Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Thanks Chris, that's good to know BPMH, snap I've used DxO/AP although if people in the image C1 is hard to beat imho. C1/AP might just be my perfect WF regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
