but it opens as a TIF instead of a RAW… Is there something I’m missing?
Indeed, that’s the way it works with the ‘Edit in’. Unfortunately, we have no say in what Apple Photos is sending us, so they’re processing it all the time before sending it, which is a shame…
The only way around this would be to find the RAW file inside the Photos library, but it can be tricky: the sorting of photos in there is a bit cumbersome, writing sidecars there might cause problems with your Photos library later on, so it’s not really a walk in the park.
Does DxO have any plans to support the Photos extension functionality, so that a RAW can be sent? Almost all other photo editors I have tried will do this…
As of now, no, it doesn’t act as a Photo Extension. We’re considering it of course, but we have many many things we’re looking into and we have to prioritize, so I can’t say for sure if and when that might come.
