KipV Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Can you go into detail by what you mean when you say: "Fixed “Edit In..” Photos integration"? I have had a lot of problems getting changes in AP to get saved back to Photos, is that what this fixed?

Staff MEB Posted February 19, 2018 Staff Share Posted February 19, 2018 Hi KipV, I believe this refers to using the command Image ▸ Edit With ▸ Affinity Photo in Apple Photos (on macOS High Sierra) to send the image to Affinity Photo. There was an issue/bug preventing the edits from being saved back to Apple Photos. It should be fixed now.

KipV Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 @MEB Oh good, I hope that has been fixed. One of my machines is still on Sierra was it also fixed on Sierra? New Internet Book Project | Another New Website Project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdD Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 1.6.7 RC1 Beta problem. Found a problem with High Pass filter. If I apply it by using Filter > Sharpen > Highpass it puts the grey mask over the image as expected but when I try to adjust the layer blend mode the grey mask flashes off very briefly but stays on. This means I can't see what effect the filter has. Applying the filter doesn't change that - the grey mask stays on the image rendering the image useless. When I use the non destructive method with a Live Filter Layer everything works normally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjglad Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Is this update stuck in the App Store? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxx Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I think it's a bug, I'm creating a macro with a main folder and two subfolders. if I use the macro all existing layers are copied into both subfolders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
