To do this, magnify your image to at least 100%. Instead, we are going to use the Node Tool to reposition the points or nodes that we added with the Pen Tool. We don’t want to use any of these options at this stage. It’s grouped together with the Pen Tool.Īfter selecting the Node Tool, you will see its options displayed in the context sensitive toolbar at the top of the screen. You will find this in the Photo Persona Tools Palette on the left of the interface. The next step in the process is to use the Node Tool.
By positioning the points outside of the edges of the image, we know that we will select all the image in those areas. This is perfectly acceptable and better than trying to position a point in the exact corner of the image. Something else to notice is that two of these points were added outside the edges of the image. The new D&B brushes in CaptureOne are great but for tricky work AP allows you to selectively apply the effect to highlights, mid-tones or shadows).In this example, you can see that we’ve added six points, before clicking on the first point again to close or finish the selection. (An extra comment on AP: I mainly go there for the reasons stated above but I also prefer it for some cases of dodging and burning. Do this even if you already have Nik as one essential step is set up in the installation dialogue and cannot be accessed from an already installed version (or I couldn't do it). When you have finished all your editing, save the result (CMD S) and the edited image will be saved to CaptureOne.Ģ: Download the Nik suite from the DxO website. This means that all you have to do is, with your image open in CaptureOne select Edit With > AffinityPhoto and from there you can open whatever routine in the Nik suite from Filters > Plugins > (name of the Nik routine you want to apply). Happily advances in the relationship between DxO and AP have solved this and the Nik suite can now be installed in Affinity as a fully active plugin.
It's easy to round trip from CaptureOne to AP and from CaptureOne to Nik but if I want to use all 3 on the same image it gets to be cumbersome. Having tried just about everything on the market over the last 10 years I have settled on CaptureOne for library and general editing, Affinity Photo for composites and superior cloning and healing, and NIK for colour enhancements and mono conversions.
