Title: Edit With default settings
Post by: phillipe on May 24, 2017, 06:31:34 pm

Is there any way to change the default setting for  'Edit With' or adding a new preset?  I round-trip to Photoshop often and prefer PSD files to TIFF and have to change the Edit With settings each time...it would be nice to be able to have it default to the settings I use.
Thanks.

I could be mistaken, but this may be a bug. It seems that I remember C1 remembering the last settings chosen.

Now I could be wrong, and I've been known to lie.  ;)

Currently it defaults to TIFF, correct.

But I agree it makes sense for it to be 'sticky'.

Consider whether "Edit With" is really what you want. For many (most?) users I feel a session workflow and process recipes are faster, more powerful, and, notably do not suffer from the "does not stick" syndrome you are describing.

Of course, I agree that the setting should stick on "Edit With".

Thank you David and Doug.  Doug I am trying both Catalogs and Sessions to figure out which is the best route for me...David, I'm looking forward to today's webinar.
