AnnH Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 I managed to get Topaz and Nik plugins installed into Affinity Photo but when I open an image in either one it turns them sideways. They work fine in Photoshop Elements. I've searched here for an answer but found little to help so I assume I've overlooked something I should have done when installing them. What can I do?

John Rostron Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Were these images originally taken in portrait mode? There is an Exif flag which some software recognizes. Try clicking on the Reset button on the AP context toolbar. This resets this flag. You may have to save and reload the image for it to be made permanent. Alternatively, if you have an Exif editor, you could do it there. John Quote Windows 10, Affinity Photo 1.10.5 Designer 1.10.5 and Publisher 1.10.5 (mainly Photo), now ex-Adobe CC CPU: AMD A6-3670.

Staff MEB Posted February 7, 2018 Staff Share Posted February 7, 2018 Hi AnnH, Welcome to Affinity Forums This is due to an issue with the exif/metadata which we already have logged. Right-click the layer in the Layers panel and select Rasterise..., then run the plugin as usual. It should display the image correctly.

AnnH Posted February 9, 2018 Author Share Posted February 9, 2018 Thanks, I looked but couldn't find the reset button, right clicking and choosing rasterize worked and turned it right side up! Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet another use for the almost magical Rasterise command One day I'm going to write a really brilliant software program that does everything Photo, Designer, Publisher, MS Office etc does and I'm going to call it RASTERISE John Rostron 1 Quote Windows PCs.
