Edit Photo With
« on: February 09, 2011, 10:50:49 AM »
Is there a shortcut key to toggle which program to Edit Photo With? For example I use Lightroom, Aperture, Photoshop for different images and currently Ctrl-click an image to choose which to edit photo with. I'd like to be able to toggle through options with a shortcut key.

Running Photo Mechanic 4.6.6 and Mac OS 10.6.5

No, but if you right-click on the picture you wish to edit, one of the menu options is a sub menu (Edit with) that lists all of your editors.  Choose the one you want.

Kirk,
My sub-menu "Edit with" only lists one of my editors...
Do you have an idea as to what may be the problem?
TIA

Did you assign any additional editors using the 'Set...' button in the Launching tab of the Preferences dialog?

Thanks, Kirk.
That's exactly what happened. I had not assigned other editors to specific file formats...
The logic is that if you have at least one other editor assigned to at least one file format, then you will have the option...
