Hi Andy and Catas,
Sorry – I didn’t see this thread.
Andy: Levels generating black images: do you think you could share an image with me with the problem? I haven’t seen this in my own testing. There is a dropbox upload link you can use: https://www.dropbox.com/request/URZ12srbCokrdYn4I0gECatas: I think I found a bug with exporting which causes excessive memory use. I plan to have a fix for that soon. Hopefully that addresses the problem.
No problem. That’s strange that it just started working, unless perhaps a new OS version was installed between then and now.
X-H1 images are decoding correctly for me here. Please email me at support@gentlemencoders.com – I will send you a link to upload an image so I can try to reproduce the problem.
Also, what version and platform are you using (macOS / iOS and the complete version number of the OS)? I’m finding issues in older versions of macOS & iOS. Those problems disappeared when I went to macOS 11.4 and iOS 14.6.
Hi, sorry about the issue with compressed RAF. There is a bug with compressed X100V images. I have a fix for that and will ship it ASAP.
Are you using that camera or a different one? If it’s different, which one is it?

Thanks for reporting it; I’ll look into it after this in-app purchase fire has been put out. For bugs and such, email is best because we can exchange screenshots etc. The email address is support@gentlemencoders.com.
I’m really sorry you are encountering problems. You should not have to buy the app again.
There is a bug in the app that we missed with restoring purchases. I’m working on it now as fast as I can.

In the File Browser, the app only sorts by file date. The main reason is performance – reading the EXIF date is expensive for large folders (especially if you turn on the preference to show subfolders). Because the app doesn’t have an import function or a database for all images, it reads that information each time. I’d like to improve that in the future.
In general, edit parameters are not portable between imaging apps from different companies. Shadows + 50% in RAW Power is different from Shadows + 50% in LR. Even White Balance and Exposure use different algorithms.
And the RAW decodes are different, so even if exposure was the same algorithm, Apple and Adobe render the unadjusted RAWs differently so you are starting from different points.
Edits in RAW Power are stored in one of two places. If you use the Photo library, they are stored there and sync over iCloud Photos. If you are using the File browser, then there is no syncing solution; the files are stored in the app’s “sandbox” folder which is buried in your home directory.
Hi,
1) On the Mac, you can certainly store the photos in Lightroom and edit them in RAW Power. RAW Power can work as a file browser, so if you can point RAW Power to the directory where you store your files, then it can view and edit them. It stores the adjustment data elsewhere (not with the original).
2) The app has some ability to work with a portrait photo. There is an adjustment called Depth Effect, which lets you adjust the highlights and shadows of the foreground and background independently. It also lets you adjust the depth mask so you can control what is “foreground” and what is “background”. It does not allow you to change which portrait mode is used.

Are you referring to the straighten slider, or the straighten tool (where you draw a line on the image to straighten it)? When I use the tools, they seem to be smooth, but that will depend on the image and your computer.
As far as how much is zooms in, it zooms in the least it can while showing no black edges. You can use the crop tool after straightening to adjust the area that is visible.
Yes, I would like to improve support for XMP read and write in the future. It’s important to have good interoperability.

Yes, I know what you mean and am sorry for the frustration. It’s been on the list to address for a while; because of the way the viewer is built, it’s a much more thorny problem than it would appear at first glance.
One thing I can suggest, lacking the actual feature to hold the zoom, is to take advantage of multiple tabs:
1) make a new tab
2) Pick the same album or folder in the second tab
3) Set the selections in each tab and set the zoom as you like
4) Then you can use Cmd-Shift-] and Cmd-Shift-[ to switch tabs and thus show the two images.
