DNG, Editor, and mouse scrolling fixes / improvements


Version 2026.08.05

DNG saves no longer lose mask adjustments silently
Adjustments made on a mask can't be stored in DNG metadata,so other apps were showing the unedited stack. Macro Studio now tells you when this applies and offers to bake the adjustments into the DNG's pixels. Reopening in Macro Studio was always correct (and still is).

Saved DNGs look sharp in the Library again
The Source preview and Compare view were showing DNGs at half the resolution they gave TIFFs.

The Editor preview now matches what you export
Clarity, Sharpness, Texture and Denoise are sized to the preview's scale, so what's on screen tracks the saved file. Zoom to 100% to see the exact pixels.

Crop with straighten reaches the whole image
At steeper angles, the crop didn’t always allow you to reach the edge of the image.

Smoother scrolling
Mice and trackpads using “smooth scrolling” should now step smoothly through frames and history, instead of stalling or over-running.

Mouse gesture for changing the brush feather size
Defaults to Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+scroll, and you can re-map it in Preferences.
