However, after cloning the dust you now decide the image is slightly too warm. In a non-destructive workflow, these all happen on separate layers.
Here’s an example of the problem: you open an image and first adjust its white balance, then you adjust its curves, then you clone a speck of dust. This greatly diminishes any sort of “non-destructive” photo editing because to further an image in its edit, you have to duplicate the layer beneath and start from there. By that I mean all edits must be made on the same layer that has image material to directly work on.

When I asked for Pixelmator to confirm that there’s no History panel to be optioned, I got a one-word affirmation of “correct.” I’m thinking that means they don’t intend to change that anytime soon.Īnother big issue I have with Pixelmator Pro is that there’s no adjustment layers capability. I found out the hard way that if you accidentally delete that complicated mask on a layer that took a long time to draw, you can’t undo that and get it back. Furthermore, some actions appear to not record in the Undo-Redo log, such as deleting a mask. There’s the basic Undo and Redo menu actions, but there’s no multi-step undoing and no visual record of what’s happening to the image being edited. Apparently professionals don’t make mistakes and don’t care to one-click check before and after versions of their complex, multi-step changes. One of the more glaring omissions is having no History panel. The first place I looked was the Preferences window, however I was stopped dead in my tracks at the only two tabs on the screen: General and Rulers. There’s a sizable amount missing from an editor considered “Pro” by name. While the interface looks aesthetically pleasing, once work began on photo editing I started to notice Pixelmator Pro begin to unravel in its functionality. Pixelmator’s statement on the issue is that they “feel a dark interface works best for editing images,” continuing, “but we haven’t ruled out a light option in the future.” Functionality Nino Batista has a great article to explore more on the subject if you are interested. Dark interfaces also strain my eyes more because my pupils have to stay wide open to gather more light, just like when forced to read paragraphs of white on black text. Generally, a middle gray is what I find best for photo editing a dark interface will usually result in darker images since they appear to be lighter than what they actually are in comparison to the surrounding darkness. Combined with low contrast gray tool icons and text, your eyes are in for a workout if you spend a lot of time editing.

I am using a Lenovo ideapad 510 laptop computer (a portable device, yet in fact permanently located on a desk and plugged in to an ethernet connection) running Windows 10.The non-optional near-black interface is definitely going to be a turn off for some users. However, could you possibly have an option that a user could set please so that the user may choose for himself or herself to have the colour scheme used for PagePlus X7?Īlso, on the start up panel, the word Affinity is to me not legible as it is one shade of grey upon another shade of grey. I appreciate that the colour scheme for Affinity might well be all part of the design and the marketing and that I am quite possibly in the sigma2 proportion of the population who has the brightness turned down like that and that Serif may well not want to change the format for the new product. The colour scheme for writing this post is similar to the PagePlus X7 colour scheme and is ideal for me. With PagePlus X7 the black upon light grey of the menu bar and cascading menus is ideal for me with the screen brightness turned right down. I find that sometimes I need to turn up the brightness, which I don't like doing. I find that the white (light grey?) upon black of the lettering on the menu bar and cascading menus of Affinity Publisher difficult to read. I always like to have the screen brightness of a computer turned right down.
