@Joanna I suggested that the preview toggles were in the wrong place PL9 has put the Viewing Quality Toggles in the wrong place, please make them accessible and it got all of 7 votes and here we have users complaining that the the performance has deteriorated.
Being able to toggle those settings ON/OFF on selective image by image basis, or toggle them on while the users undertake an image by image evaluation would help users cope with the slowing down of PL9 when using some of the new features.
It doesn’t alter the fact that PhotoLab AI handling should be faster, and certainly doesn’t change the fact that it shouldn’t fall over on a “whim” for some users and apparently not for others.
Those need addressing and so hopefully does the overall speed but whoever decided to put those options where they did needs to go on a course for designing UIs for every class of user with every sort of hardware, not just the best that can be bought.
@Fineus I presume you added a vote to my post? I don’t really believe in votes and certainly do not believe that they sway DxO from their chosen path, they are way to “pig headed”, obstinate, self-assured, working in a bubble, choose any or all of those options.
