Any planning for ArtStudio Vs Photoshop ?

[barry]

Any big ideas for ArtStudio?
I thank for the fans base of photoshop, ArtStudio need to push harder!

For both  drawing &. Painting and for photography artist.
Hopefully something  crazy ! Something ArtStudio have and other doesn’t have.....

* I am mainly doing drawings and painting.

Any suggestion?

ASP is fine for painting, but to become a premium photo manipulation tool, it needs at least:

• Smart and powerful background removal/edge enhancement tools
• Paintable masks
• Vector tools with path editing
• Channel editing/channel blending (hide if)
• More intelligent noise reduction
• Plugin architecture

1. Already on my todo list (planned for next year)
2. Paintable masks - we already have it, you can change any layer into a mask and paint on it.
3. Vector tool - next year
4. Channel editing - users haven't requested that so far
5. Noise reduction - current "Denoise" filter is really good, especially in "Precise" mode.
6. Plugins - this is not easy to implement, we will consider that in the future.

I second the channel editing, I’d like to see that aswell.
And I’m still pushing for ASP to handle 16bit files.😁

Question:
How far off are you guys from sharing PSD files back and forth with regards to adjustment layers, masks etc?

[Lucky Clan]

Masks and clipping masks are already supported in both PSD import and export.
Adjustment layers and layer effects will be implemented in the next few months.

Excellent 😁
Will they still carry across to ASP if you paint out areas of the mask on the adjustment layer in PS?

Oh, and this would be VERY helpful:
