This appears and opens in PL perfectly normally and if worked on, gets a _DSC0374_open with_ added. tif exported to application is always suffixed eg _DSC0374.NEF becomes _DSC0374_open with.tif. I don’t have PS any more, but tried various sequences using GraphicConverter. That’s not how it works, Perhaps I’m misunderstanding what you are attempting to do. From your other posts its sounds like when you go back to PhotoLab you are expecting to see the changes you made in Ps in your raw images. PhotoLab’s sidecar files are not even the same name or format as Camera raw’s XMP sidecars. When you are finished editing the image in Ps are you saving it before exiting? When you go back to PhotoLab is the tiff file not visible? You can’t update raw side car files with additional edits across applications. When you export an image to Ps you are doing so as a Tiff or jpeg.
You refer to sidecar files, but those are only used for raw images, not when you export tiffs or jpegs which are self contained.
I am just very sad about feeling forced to change to some other software because I can not get Dxo to make a simple change.Ĭorrect me if i’m wrong here but, PL read the sidecar and adjust the image base on that sidecar not saved from another app, if you remove that sidecar PL will show you the final edit saved from Ps and not what was done before. I worry that this post may sound like a rant, but it is not intended that way. I really like this software and it has been my go-to workflow tool for a long time but I have just gotten truly discouraged by trying to get them to implement something that every other workflow tool does without an issue. There was a comment on this forum from the staff that they were going to fix this, but they have not as of yet and I have been waiting for this fix for perhaps 4 or 5 years. Apparently they did not want to have to process externally edited images in PL, although I do not know why. I have filed several change requests, all of which were apparently ignored, although I did once get a response from the Optics Pro people telling me to not export an image to an external editor and then save it back to the original image. Even if manually removing the sidecar file fixed the problem it would mean opening Finder for every such image and manually removing the sidecar and that is too much unnecessary work when I am processing hundreds of images. In fact I have tried completely stopping the creation of the sidecar files and it has had no effect. Removing the sidecar file will not force PL to update the image based on changes made externally to the application. PhotoLab keeps the changes in both the catalog and in the sidecar files.
