Im near always happy with AP and AD. The Workflow is great, the programms are stable for hours of work per day and I made many artworks and prints for my clients this year with it.
I think you all affinity guys make and made a great job with it.

But, sorry to bother again, is the RAW Development Persona still on your to do list? Or is it the hated little child in AP? There are no changes within the last Betas for editing or loading RAW Files and other important functions like preset management, highlight and shadow recovery and many more. Im looking forward to finally see some steps there in the next Betas.

We'll soon be testing out a new Shadows and Highlights algorithm in Develop (1.6.2). We are still looking at Develop, it's just that's one of the most complicated areas of the program, so changes are slower to implement.

Thanks! Im happy to hear that.

btw: the shadows & highlights under filters works great in comparison to the one under adjustments - its horrible like in the development persona
may this helps, but Im sure, you already know this.

The build seems very stable so far. Oddly, the RAF files from my X-T10 now are slow to load again.
Anyway, keep up the good work!

Custom wet edges is there, but I cant seem move any nodes on the graph, I also can't choose one of the preset graphs sometimes.

This will be fixed in build 93 (coming in the next couple of hours!)

There has been no changes to image loading, so I wonder whether some other process was using CPU time when you were looking?

1.6.1.93 is now available.
