Affinity Photo 2 & Capture One
Affinity just released Version 2. It comes with this new way to place all changes on the file inside the raw layer... the call it embedded raw…
Anyone here who's smarter than i am can explain if this possibly changes the way we can bounce files from C1 to Affinity and back?
For ages it works with Affinity with edit as... hand over a tiff file to affinity.... and this tiff goes back to Capture 1.
No native Affinity file support in Capture One.
Is this now changing?
Cheers. A.

I was really happy to give them 50€. I switched from Adobe to Affinity three years ago. So three years=50 €. Including all updates. Capture One charges 200€ every year. If i compare version 22 with 23 -it’s a handful. I know I know I don’t have to upgrade…. Just saying. ;-)

I have no idea how the Affinity folks do this. Incredible features for not very much money. I've been using Affinity Photo as my substitute for Photoshop for the last several years whenever I need a bit more editing than Capture One can do and it has served my needs quite well.
I think I'll be tempted to go for the suite for $99 to get Designer 2 and Publisher 2 too. I may only use these other programs a few times a year for some web development, but even so they're such a bargain.
My one wish is that Affinity and Capture One get together and do a really nice integration between the two to outclass LR + Photoshop to make roundtrips C1 <==> Affinity Photo really seamless.

I have installed Affinity Photo 2 and Affinity Publisher 2.
For me important programs voor printing and publishing.
However de "edith with" and "open with" function in Capture one 23 does not start the Affinity programs. It only produces a tiff-file in Capture One 23.
Can somebody help me.

What platform are you running on?
I have the same issue with Capture One 22 (I'm not upgrading to v23). When I choose Edit With Affinity Photo 2, it creates a TIFF in the C1 catalog, but never opens Affinity Photo 2. In fact, it just creates the TIFF in the catalog and then does nothing else. Very odd.
FYI, I have the same issue if I try to "Edit with Affinity Photo" (Affinity version 1) or any other image editing program I have on my computer which makes me think this is a Capture One generic issue, not anything to do specifically with Affinity Photo.

here's what i did:
First you want to make sure both apps are in the same color space. C1/export/ ICC profile. AP/pref/Color.
Next make sure C1/pref/plug in/Open with Menu ---you pick AP.
Do whatever you want with your File in C1 - then use the "edit with".
You will see AP as an option.
AP will open the file automaitcally.
When saving in AP chose "tiff with layers".
That's it.
Hence when back in C1 you will see all changes from AP in the tiff file. When opening again you got to chose "open with" instead of "edit with".
Also be aware if you decide to do further changes in C1 on the tiff file- some effects will appear differently- for instance styles will have a different impact....
Hope this works for you, Cheers. A

This is the rub. I follow your steps precisely. C1 creates the TIFF, but then never opens AP. I'm just left with a new TIFF in the catalog. Neither "Open With" or "Edit With" seems to work for any program in the list. Something wrong with C1 here.

idk what's happening there... i would pick the Tiff with AP manually do a obvious change - save it ( with layers) and check if these changes show up in C1. maybe its just some weird handover issue...

also- uncheck everything in the Open with Menu. restart C1 and check Affinity again. repair the Library maybe. if nothing works go back to analog photography ;)

I have just hit the same issue with Affinity Photo V2 killing ALL the Edit With and Open With functionality on Windows 11.
Seriff have used the "new" Microsoft app installation process and this means that most 3rd party programs can't start Photo V2 (lots of complaints and discussion over on the Affinity forums) but it seems to be worse with CO. Not only does the Edit With and Open With not work with Photo V2, all the other applications in the Open With plugin have stopped working. Looks like there might be a problem in the Open With plugin that's being triggered by Photo 2.
Fortunately uninstalling Photo 2 immediately restores the Open With plugin functionality.
Hopefully this will get sorted soon because the new features in Photo 2 are worth having but in the mean time I'll have to resort to V1.0
