As I wrote elsewhere, Paintshop Pro has the most to fear from Affinity than any other software, I think. My inclination, at this point, is to use ACDSee Ultimate 10 as the file manager (Affinity only has a VERY primitive file browser) and Raw developer, and use Affinity for those things that U10 can not do. G'mic was developed as a GIMP plugin, but can now also be used inside of Affinity Photo. There is nothing in Affinity I can't learn to use, it's not THAT difficult! But I'm a bit of a software geek, and even I find the frustration level kind of high. Hundreds of Effects and Adjustments for free. I think they purposely set out to make their UI 'different' and in some ways, that works against them. Then just now I realized the "White balance tool" is in that narrow stack of tools on the LEFT side of the Develop Persona window and is always on display. All day yesterday, I thought i had to adjust WB by trial and error. Yesterday, I went to the White Balance section of the basic sub tab for the "Develop Persona" (i.e the Develop Tab) and I couldn't find any tool that was the equivalent of the traditional 'eyedropper' that would allow me to click on an off colored white section of the photo and adjust the white balance automatically to turn that white section white.

In the dialog box, we choose a radius that only just blurs the textures in the face and leaves gentle transitions between the tones. Now go to Filters > Frequency Separation. I had some trouble with the white balance. En el signo de (+) Que se muestra en la imagen, busca la ruta de la carpeta de complementos Affinity Photo V2 para que se instale correctamente y ya debería funcionar. Start by opening up your portrait image in Affinity Photo and press Cmd/Ctrl+J to duplicate the background layer. Oh, you can set for shadows and highlights, and there is a contrast slider, but as near as I can tell, it lacks the tools for more subtle tonality adjustments that ACDSee and Lightroom have. And the only explicit tonality tool is Curves. There is nothing even remotely similar to ACDSee's Light EQ for instance. I think I can access far more of the dynamic range my camera can produce with ACDSee than I can with Affinity. My mini review of Affinity that I posted on DPR, yesterday. The software who figures out a way to support *AFPhoto FIRST, stands to pick up some new users and lock them in before Serif does and may even delay Serif's entry into that market. And steal some business from Photoshop itself. Affinity Photo is going to be serious competition to PaintShop Pro. In case of execution problems, just like all other plugins, Auto-Device provides the user with information on exceptions and error values. (and those puppies are HUGE!, BTW) Clearly it is just a matter of time before Serif puts out its own 'Front end' application as competition for Lightroom and ACDSee. There is absolutely NO WAY to manage *.AFPhoto files.
