On1 is a raw editor, all edits are done in raw. But it also is a jpg editor and will do the exact same things. It is an end to end solution operating in raw mode or in jpg.buchablichter wrote: Hi,
I am searching a simple photo editor that has the following traits, ideally all in one window:
following editing functions:
- cropping
- turning in increments
- brightness, saturation, contrast, gamma
all in one window.
following setting options:
- overwriting changes to a picture with as least as possible, ideally one klick without getting asked anything nor opening extra windows for a new saving path, name or file extension or any other unneccessary steps
On1 has editable export presets. You can tell it, copy to another folder, save as jpg, overwrite original or save it in addition to. You can change the file name, extension, or save as one format or several strip exif or only certain things.
Once you choose this preset, you don't have to change it and it will pull the same preset up over and over again unless you change it. So click export, ok, and you are done.
- setting a preset quality of saved photos up to 100
That is saved in the export preset above.
- quick opening of next photo with one click
This is complicated only because you choose how you do this. Once it is chosen, it does the same thing every time.
There are 2 modes browsing and edit, browsing which is super fast because it only shows you the original file. Then you can choose to edit the file, same window though. So you have 1 image or multiple images or 1 image with a filmstrip below to scroll left or right.
Edit means you never leave the editing context
If you are in edit it will show a single image, you can have a film strip below it or not and it too is super fast if you are viewing jpg, it is much slower with large raw files. But every image you select you don't have to click edit, because you are in edit. The downside is this. You can see all the images in the film strip below and select any of them or scroll through them using left and right buttons or mouse/slider. But you can see in the filmstrip mode the image whether it is jpg or raw before you click it, and if it has been edited. If you click an edited image that is raw and has 15 layers, it is not going to be super quick it will be slow(although you can choose render fast, or render accurately which take longer.
I think this would fit what you are asking, whether it be one way or the other. If it is just edits to a single layer, edit is still super fast.
- file format .jpeg / .jpg
You can choose either suffix.
- resizing
On1 uses genuine fractals to do upsizing (plus a standard resizing, plus you can resize in the export preset and sharpen a well) it is one of the best in the industry, next version gets and AI version of this which will be even better.
I tested many photo editors, but none so far had all features and I have to stack editors.
The editor is needed to crop pictures, adjust small turning percentages, adjust small changes to brightness, contrast etc..
Many pictures need to be edited one for one by hand as quick as possible, no batch editing intended.
Microsoft 15 years ago had a viewer with editing functions like I am looking for, I was not able to identify the specific software I mean, maybe someone remembers.
I am willing to buy any hardware type and OS needed, but ideally the editor works on PC under Linux or Windows.
Many thanks in advance for your input.
Greetings
I would have hoped he had tried these first and was not satisfied and came here asking for another solution. I know that if you open a raw image in photoshop, you jump into Adobe raw window, then you do your edit, then it jumps to photoshop. This would not meet his requirements of a easy or fast single window editor.Gammill wrote: Have you tried Photoshop or Lightroom? I've found these two handle just about anything I've needed from an editing standpoint.
I am using windows 10. If I click on a jpg, my default viewer is Photo. It has built in editor all in one window. It does all the editing you ask for. It has a button at the bottom to save copy or just save which overwrites the original image. If you need to edit 100 images consecutively in windows explorer, you highlight all your jpgs and click open, it will open them in photo, you will see only one image but you will be able to scroll back and forth between all your images, make an edit and move on to the next. This is built into windows 10.buchablichter wrote: Microsoft 15 years ago had a viewer with editing functions like I am looking for, I was not able to identify the specific software I mean, maybe someone remembers.
