I did not know and I can not find how to save... ?? Thanks, Patrick It does it automatically. I actually have a better fix for this now, as it will still crash in a different location now. I'd be interested in receiving anyone's workspace files who is experiencing a crash at startup, or crash when pressing shortcut key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

v_kyr Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Any reason the beta version number is never part of the download aka the file names? - IMO using affinity-photo-customer-beta-1.7.0.184.exe would be much more meaningful, especially in terms of the higher actual fluctuation of beta version downloads.

C_Calmes Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 The long awaited update !!! How did you improved the X-Trans support ? I don't see any difference when opening a RAF file on 1.6 ou 1.7 Beta... As a Fuji Owner, I'm really interested in this part....

mapline Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Hi C_Calmes To load Affinity and 22.15mb compressed RAF file for me . 1.6 30sec 1.7 13sec. I would call that a significant difference/improvement! However Develop seems to take longer in 1.7 ? Have you tried the C1 v12 Beta gives fuji film simulations and after developing it can open the file in Affinity to continue editing. New Affinity Beta updated perfectly.

I would call that a significant difference/improvement! Yes... this is an improvement... But I was expecting a better converter that could avoid the use of Iridient X-Transformer. A RAF file opened in On1 Photo RAW or Exposure X4 is really sharper than in Affinity Photo. What is the C1 v12 Beta you're talking about ?

C_Calmes Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Ha ok... I already use Capture One Express Fuji. Great. But I would have been really happy to have a one app workflow. Also, the 1.7 beta seems to be a bit buggy for the moment...
