DSokolo2309 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I just updated to 1.6.6. and tried to open a DNG file. All I get is a black image, am I missing something or Affinity does not open DNG? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polygonius Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Tested maybe 12 hours (netto) or so - no worries so far. My highlight, the glyph-browser, works very well, also the bright gui (could be a little bit darker) and the heart-fonts (i would prefer categories). Even the german localization and the updated help - i didnt found any "strange translation" or something else to mention. This GM was the long waiting-periode worth:-) Well done, thank you Serif! ############################# For the next update: I wish a svg-"glyph-like" browser: just "draw" an empty "form" and browsing trough my referenced svg-folders and doubleclick to open/place here, when i found a good canditate. Also a form-replacer = just the form gets replaced, all other (size, fill-color, gradient, contour, mask.....) keeps the same. Better global-color-managment, also better "context-pipette" = doubleclick anywhere with any pipette beams the color to my current-context: At this state its a little bit wide-windowed and unnecessary confusing. Also a combo of eg. HSL-wheel PLUS a palette (monochrome) plus a palette gradients in one "box"... would save lot clicks... BTW: a special palette or dedicated tool for "transparancy/masking/morphing..." gradiens...its of course a very nice feature as it is, but i guess it can more with a dedicated tool/palette More than just a "heart" for font-collections: I have some serif, some non-serif, some caligraphy, some fx.... i want them as category-"shortcuts", maybe like the osx-fontapp without to open the studio-text-box! And (a little bit special) but a simple animation-timeline would be lovely. I often need animated knobs (moving eg. just an indicator from 8 PM to 4 AM or something like that). (take a look at the great free-java-app JK Knobman - it does it very well, but the fonts become never so "sharp" as in AP and other things too... and its wide-windowed...)! Smarter "browsing" in general. Remember different folder for open / saving this type, and give a better side-panel as the osx-standard. Take a look at libre-office. Lets define a side-panel for open and saving with fast-one-level-higher arrows and a preview by clicking any special-stroke... Not a gimmick: Escpailly for "use your eyes" apps - a personalized "background" is not a gimmick! Take a look to DAW- or some office apps. Most lets set different color-shemes for the app (some areas) itself. With osx, the dock and the finder... i can create "templates", but they are never so comfortable as dynamic ones from inside the app. ############## Some generall gui-speed-ups. There are a lot of click+menu+select-boxes... mostly 2 prev/next buttons would do a faster job, instead click the pull-down button- navigate to the entry + click this entry... and start again... next/prev is very faster. A menu only needs sense if there are sub-folders or long list, in this case you can combine booth. (Same for open/save dialog - there is no need to keep the wide-windowed osx-dialog, see libre office... not the specialists for osx;-), but here they blame apple.. BTW: your "media-browser" is exactly not this kind of "developing the standard-finder-dialog" - sit down, do it again;-). ---------------------------------------- A "design-persona" - I pay 20-30 bucks more and get assets and symbols and the polygon-brush... inside AP+. You could even want the whole different-price: i would pay, IF i get a smaller and better to handle "all-in-one" - app. Personas are ideal for "modul your own app". Even with looking for "publisher" and what else from you... Instead buying different apps with lot i do not need (i never need RAW/-persona, but i love liqify...) However, i would prefer to buy the MAIN-SERIF-APP and the personas i need.( Assumed you do not blows up with double-libararys and double-checks.of BASE/Share-code... and nothing wastes unnecessary ressources in the background.....) A bridge might be a walkable way, but a simple handschake between personas could be much faster and smarter. *********************************************** And for the next ROUND of beta-testing: Import of all my shortys and preferences and a fast switch back for excluding this error-possibility because its beta). ( (creating a duplicate-folder - and other stuff i can do by myself in record time and need it just once;-). ********************************************** Except this: AP is a really COMPLETE, professional and made-with-love-for-detail-app! And thats for a very very fair price. I´ll vote you with 98,5% of 100%! And ti´m a very person who never give OSX 12.5 / iMac Retina 27" / Radeon Pro 580X / Metall: on! --- WWG1WGA WW!

Frank Jonen Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Maybe call the TinyRGB Profile TinyRGB (c2) instead of just c2. I had to google what a c2 is, thought it was a bug initially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
