Maintaining Preview Window After Edit
« on: November 07, 2008, 03:31:01 AM »
Hello,

Does anyone know if it's possible to maintain the preview window after editing a photo into Photoshop. Anytime I edit into Photoshop, the preview window closes and brings the Photoshop window forward. I'd like to stay in preview and keep editing photos while they open in Photoshop in the background. Is this possible?

I'm using Mac OS 10.5.5 and PM 4.5.3.2.

Sorry, but no, there is no way to keep the Preview window open under those circumstances.  It is designed that way and is one thing I'd really like to change in a future version of Photo Mechanic.

Thanks for replying Kirk. I think it should definitely be an option. It would save me a lot of time. Many thanks.
