Affinity photo file format support (afphoto)

It would be nice to be able to do "edit with" and choose "affinity photo file format" and use that instead of PSD. And that Capture one can read the format back as a variant

    As Adobe changed its T&CS and fed its AI with all of its users' work, this might be the right time to revisit this request. I stopped using Adobe over a decade ago and have been using Affinity Photo since its first beta. It's an excellent software, but it could have been more convenient with Capture One. You are focusing a lot on workflow; please fix this.

    If .afphoto file was supported it would solve the transition from Adobe to Affinity with C1.

    Personally i am not switching to C1 until Affinity Photo file is supported.

    Even being able to catalogue a thumbnail and select ‘Open With” or “Edit with” would really help my workflow.

    Thanks for the honest message that there is not „integration“ planned. I personally don’t like this decision but it is like it is. I want to mention one point, i really often use affinity publisher, the performance of showing referenced / linked pictures is way better than in indesign. Please don’t forget to look left and right from the big dominating brands.
    Capture one is my main editing tool and it will stay like that, AI based sky replacement or fill Functions is nothing I need, where the big brand shines…
    So maybe we will see a support for affinity in the future, at least I hope it.

    Hi everyone, 
    Thank you for the suggestion - this is not something we are currently working on.

    This does not mean this is a bad suggestion or that it will never be adressed, but in an effort of transparency we want you to know that we are not currently allocating resources to solving this issue.

    We will revisit the status of this thread if and when it changes.

    +1 because more and more people want to step away from adobe :) (in my personal overview)

    368074128197 Is it because Affinity files (Photo, Designer, Publisher) are 'packages' that can equally be opened by any app of the suite (Photo can open a Publisher file…)? I think the extension (.photo, .pub…) is only here so that files open with the expected app. But there might be other reasons, other than technical, for Capture One not supporting Affinity files !?

    At least the crop tool has been improved, saving me time.

    I would like this too, and I have always assumed that it would be easy enough to do. But I seem to remember reading something somewhere that explained why it actually wasn't so simple - I can't remember if it was to do with some technical aspect of the Affinity files, or something to do with licensing and copyright of the file format. 

    Perhaps someone who knows could explain.

    Still expecting too!

    As well as waiting for a new key modifier for the crop tool that would allow to lock the current aspect ratio whatever the ratio the crop tool is set up to (not only when it's set to "unconstrained ratio"). It makes waste so much time!

    Any news? Is there any planned integration with Affinity Photo? Can we hope?

    +1 Yes, the combination C1 + AP is very common and better integration could really simpify the workflow!

    Yes, being able to catalog (or in session) Affinity files would be very nice and good for Capture One who probably wants to welcome "switchers".
