For myself and the many users I know the most lacking feature in PureRaw; no direct option to save the DNG file to the same folder as the original RAW file.
No clutter of useless DxO subfolders or having to navigate to a specific folder each time. Just a one-time setting will make a lot of people very happy!
This concerns the âProcess photosâ dialog. There are only two options as destination folder; either âDxOâ folder in the original image(s) folder or Custom folder. Those are all the choices you get when processing images.
I just want the option to permanently set âsave to original image folderâ. No work-arounds, just set it once and never touch it again. Happy life.
Can I suggest that if this gets added that the Lightroom plugin is also updated with an option to stack the DXO version of the image with the original (and set the DXO version to the top of the stack / the primary image in the stack)
I STRONGLY support this request to (a) provide the ability to stack DxO version with the original raw image AND (b) not create a useless DxO Lr collection!
Another vote for this feature. It should be trivial to implement. Please, just let us save the DxO version in the same location as the raw file. Thank you !!
Hurray! They implemented this in the latest release. 3.2.0.
Now if they would get rid of the dialog box asking if I want to âGo to Finderâ or âView resultsâ. I donât want to do either. Iâm using CaptureOne and I want to go back to that program. Currently I have to âxâ out of this dialog every time. Donât know if this is a refinement needed for CaptureOne or also true in LR.
Totally agree, and this is one of the main nuisances preventing me from buying - I donât want a subfolder and I donât want a new collection, I just want the processed file put back in the source folder next to the original. Other things keeping me on the sidelines:
It doesnât work from the âEdit Inâ right-click menu in LR Classic. It creates the export file, but doesnât open the program. I can only launch it from Plug-In Extras in the File menu.
It doesnât preserve keywords from the original file.
Why is a 12-bit DNG more than twice the file size of my original 14-bit NEF???
Sad, because the actual results are wonderful. But Iâm not spending money on anything thatâs this frustrating to use.
