Sorry to hear that. I spent a while trying to get the app to show extra windows, but it worked properly each time.
The simplest thing would be to reset the app’s defaults for window position. You can do that in the Terminal.
- Quit Nitro
- Open Terminal
- Enter the following command, INCLUDING the quotation marks: defaults delete com.gentlemencoders.nitro “PersistentWindowState v2”
- Open Nitro
If this does not work, then execute this simpler command to reset all the defaults (quit Nitro first).
defaults delete com.gentlemencoders.nitro
JPEG-XL is much slower to encode / decode right now. I don’t think there is hardware support for it, unlike HEIC and JPEG which do.
The main issue is that Photos does not read XMP sidecars. I plan to add JPEG-XL export support in the (relatively near) future, which would also embed the keywords into the file, at which point, Photos will be able to see the keywords. The other way for Nitro to solve this is to have Nitro write XMP directly into original files (in this case, the JPEG-XL that you made in the other app). However, that is a bit longer term, as writing into original files has risks that need to be managed carefully.
Sometimes that happens if the app fails to save the window positions and counts. Please close a tab, wait 3 seconds, and then quit the app. Then reopen Nitro. Does that tab reappear? If it does not, then close the other tabs (except for one), wait a few seconds, and then quit / reopen.
I’m sorry to hear that. There is nothing in the new version of the app to delete LUTs (in fact, there is no code at all in the app to delete LUTs). On iOS, if you delete the app, then iOS will delete the LUTs and any other app data, but that’s not something that happens when deleting apps on the Mac. Unfortunately, I cannot explain why this happened to you. If you are able to determine the cause, please let me know and I can try to figure something out.
I cannot see the image, so I don’t know why the tools would have vanished from the right side. If you can email support@gentlemencoders.com with the screenshot, I can take a look.
There are two ways to process a RAW image. One is to “develop it.” This is what Photoshop and Affinity Photo do. They take the RAW, give you some sliders and then the result is a new file (e.g., a TIFF) or a layer. You don’t go back to the RAW again.
The other way is what RAW Power, Nitro, C1, Lightroom, etc. all do. They decode the image when needed and you can adjust the RAW decoding at any point. If you decode with C1, unless you export a file (again, like a TIFF or a JPEG), there is nothing to give to Nitro, except the RAW file. And if it gets the RAW, Nitro will decode it (differently from C1). There is no way to convert a RAW, and then somehow keep it in a RAW format. It has to be converted into another format (as a new file), or decoded on the fly as Nitro and C1 do.
The new updates for RAW Power and Nitro are now available, with the improvements to compressed Fujifilm, Nikon HE, and other cameras.
Yes, I stumbled upon the same bug in the Developer 5 beta. Apple has broken RAW decoding for some cameras – doesn’t work in Photo or in Nitro. I have filed a bug, but I encourage you to file your own, in case mine gets lost somewhere. The best way is to file it against Photos, and ideally include an image in the bug report that doesn’t work.
