tommonego@gmail.com Posted June 20, 2020 Share #1 Posted June 20, 2020 Advertisement (gone after registration) In the previous upgrade to Photoshop (ACR) the allowed the user to save a basic xmp file of the ACR settings. I basically used it for a reverse curve to start working with negatives in ACR, worked well. Last week ACR/Photoshop was upgraded and it seems this feature was removed, to make it worse it is difficult to set a reverse curve, and I can't find a way to save my settings also the xmp files I did save are no longer available. Does anyone have a workaround for this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bags27 Posted June 20, 2020 Share #2 Posted June 20, 2020 (edited) I never messed with xmp files. Just reverse the curves of the DNG, which still works fine in the upgrade. I wrote a little program for that and a few quick and crude adjustments which sits in my User Presets. Sorry I can't help, but interested in hearing others.

tommonego@gmail.com Posted June 20, 2020 Author Share #3 Posted June 20, 2020 Just finding it is tough to reverse the curve, the curve graph lets me move one point but not the second point. IU'll have to check out user presets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommonego@gmail.com Posted June 20, 2020 Author Share #4 Posted June 20, 2020 After tearing my hair out, found the "Load Settings" button and the xmp files I created were there. Digging around for a while there is a lot to like in this version, just was a big change from and upgrade they did 2 to 3 months ago. It is still tough to reverse the curve setting will have to work on that. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bags27 Posted June 20, 2020 Share #5 Posted June 20, 2020 If you make the cursor pull the dot on curve line to the outside of the graph, that helps a lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m thinking of LR, not PS, but maybe same applies Jeff Edited June 20, 2020 by Jeff S Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I exit the point mode it reverts to the standard curve slope. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
