I edited an image that was a bunch of color adjustments (and some masking). Is there a way to combine all the color adjustments so that they can be saved as a preset to be quickly applied on other images that were captured at the same location with the same lighting? This would make a work flow much much faster.

...unless someone else has other tips on quickly copying adjustments from one image to the other??

Coming from Affinity Photo here, when I used to apply different colour adjustments to a Photo in Affinity Photo I could directly save the Colour Grading done as Preset so yes It can be done I just don't know how is it done in PixelMator Photo. I have just started using it.

Well you may want to keep Affinity Photo 2 close by. Because as far as any "AI capabilities" in Pixlemator Pro... it's not really that. It's really just some auto settings labeled as AI because the term AI is now a marketing scheme.

I've been using the 6 month trial of Affinity Photo 2 and I gotta say it's very impressive. I still need lots of practice with it because I don't know everything that it can do nor where all the tools are. I'm much quicker with Pix Pro because I've used it much longer. But AP2 has some amazing tools that Pix Pro just will never have.

It's quite puzzling as to why we customers get no reply to questions like this from the actual Pix team. I guess it's because there isn't an answer that they want to give. No wants to say "oh sorry, our product can't do that". It's best just to avoid the question entirely and say you "never seen it".

There are some fun elements to using PixelMator Pro aswell. Believe it or not the AI selection is a blessing in disguise but yes PixelMator Pro has its own limitations not as versatile as Affinity Photo.

This place could be a great place to interact and be only if people reply each other. Right now the problem is nobody replies here. It is a dead place !!

If you search through the history of requests by customers on these pages, it becomes quite clear as to why it's dead here. Hint**the requests never get fulfilled. The blanket statement that is always given by the pix team is they'll "mention it to the team", or make note of it. Or they have other updates in the time line. The list of excuses goes on and on. I truly think their hands are tied by Apple.

I personnally think that Pixelmator program itself was created and updated by a SINGLE human being. All the other human beings in the company does the

1. Accounting
2. Janitoring
3. Sales and Marketing
4. CEOing
5. Coffee making and taking coffee orders
6. PR

It may have been created by one person. But since Apple has inserted themselves into the app in some way, I would not be surprised to find out if there was way more than one person developing it now.
