When is this beta becoming available as final in the Windows 10 Store?

 

Hello @Dennis585

I am just a regular forum user. From what I know from past releases they don't give a certain date for the next release. We just have to be patient :)

Cheers,

d.

Can anyone in here confirm that RAF files from a Fujifilm X-A3 work in this beta?

Can someone test this file in the Affinity Photo beta?

I could not open it in the latest beta. All I get is a vertical white stripe with a few dots on it.

 

See this post to send it to the developpers.

Hi Dennis585,

Welcome to Affinity Forums :)

No, this camera is not yet supported on Affinity Photo for Windows, only on Mac using the Apple (Core Image RAW) engine on macOS High Sierra.

We still have to add support for it on our own RAW engine (Serif Labs).

 The RAF files work for me on Windows 10 using: Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, RAW Converter and XnView.

When i said supported on Windows i meant supported by our RAW engine (Serif Labs) in Affinity Photo for Windows. Each of these programs use their own engine to display/process RAW images.

When will it be supported in Affinity Photo for Windows?

The author of PTLens is welcome to come to our forum and talk to us. I've already worked with FilterForge to improve our Photoshop filter support.

Well, here I am. I'm using the standard interface to transfer images plus a special interface to obtain EXIF data as that's needed for PTLens. Do you want to take this offline? Being a developer you probably have access to my email address.

 

    // examine EXIF info
    uint8 *exif = NULL;
    rc = getProperty(0x3842494D, propEXIFData, 0, &simpProp, &compProp);
    if (rc == 0) {
        size = getSize(compProp);
        if (size) {
            exif = (uint8 *)lock(compProp, false);
            if (exif) {
                processExif(exif, size);
                unlock(compProp);
            }
        }
        dispose(compProp);
        if (!exif && gbl->dlg.pspHost) getPSPexif();
    }


    // also try XMP for lens info
    getProperty = gFr->propertyProcs->getPropertyProc;
    rc = getProperty(0x3842494D, propXMP, 0, &simpProp, &compProp);
    if (rc == 0) {
        size = getSize(compProp);
        if (size) {
            char *xmp = (char *)lock(compProp, false);
            if (xmp) {
                processXmp(xmp, size);
                unlock(compProp);
            }
        }
        dispose(compProp);
    }

I've sent an email to the address on your forum profile. Hopefully you've got it!

Just wanted to drop a quick note, that for my system (Lenovo T430s, i5 2nd gen, 8 GB RAM, nVidia NVS 5200M, SSD) this beta build came with a massive improvement of performance, which is a great relief.

  • lags in font selection are gone
  • export dialogue opens immediately now (was delayed by roughly 2 seconds before)
  • switching between various tools is much swifter

Overall, big step forward for me. Thanks guys!
