Editing photos
The image editor in Corel AfterShot Pro is completely non-destructive, so you are free to experiment and edit your images
as much as you want, knowing that you can always revert to the original version. All the edits that you make and
metadata that you add is stored either in a sidecar XMP file, within a Corel AfterShot Pro catalog, or both.
To view or use your image adjustments in other applications, you need to export the image. For more information about
exporting your files, see
Exporting images
.
The original file is always protected. The master version is based on the original file, but you can create as many versions as you like.
Because your original file is always protected (as a master file), when you edit a photo, your edits are viewable within
Corel AfterShot Pro on a representation of the master file called a master version. You can create as many additional
versions as you like. When you create a version, the application does not need to make a copy of the master file, the
information is efficiently stored in the XMP file or catalog, so you can create as many versions as you like without taking
up much storage space.
The application automatically saves each edit that you make to a photo, so your editing workflow between photos is
smooth. A complete history is kept for all the photos that you have imported into your Library, so you undo or redo
changes at any time. Note, if you are working on photos that have not been added to the Library, the edit history is only
retained for the current editing session. For more information, see
Using the History palette
.
About adjustment tools
Most editing tools and controls can be found in the Tools panel. When you click the Standard tab, you can access the Basic
Adjustments section, which contains the most common adjustment controls. Other tabs, such as Color, Tone, Detail, and
Metadata, let you access additional tools and more advanced controls and options. For example, the Basic Adjustments
section includes Fill Light. Fill Light also appears in the Exposure section of the Tone page. In the Exposure section, there is
an additional control, Range, that lets you fine-tune the Fill Light adjustment. Adjusting Fill Light in one place will update
the Fill Light setting in all sections — these are just different views of the same control.
The image below shows , and some common controls. The Tools panel can be resized, sections can be pinned, and you
can choose to hide or show the panel. There are different ways to adjust the controls in the Tools panel. You can also
reset controls to their original setting and hide or show the results of a setting.
