Re: file name changed

<r>A couple of points: 1- Sierra changed Photos - new version. But, naturally no release notes, so we don’t know what was changed. 2- Apple most likely creates and then passes the temp file name to preserve the “roll-back” ability of Photos.

Re: How Large is GC 10

<r>“Size” is not necessarily the parameter you need to be looking at when comparing load times across various programs; or the only one. "All other things being equal” it might be a reasonable metric, but all other things are not necessarily equal. Some examples: Factor 1 — how long does it take to ...

Re: [ANN] GraphicConverter 10 (Build 2566) Pixel editing

<r>I believe this phenomena has to do with caching time, i.e. OSX Memory management activity. Recent versions of OSX have paid a great deal of attention to cutting down on “launch-time” — however, the launch seems to expect that a “pop-up” of some soft will distract the user from “doing anything use...

Re: Loss of cursor after color picker use

<r>This (or something ver similar) has been true since at least Mavericks. I play LOTRO - a MMORPG, which dates from XP days (2007) Turbine created a Mac Client in 2012.

Re: Multiples GC crashes while editing IPTC

<r>Never used an Amiga, so I don't know what their problem reporting app actually did or looked like. However, based on your description, what you are asking for is what is provided by Apple when an application crashes. (Note, I do have xcode installed, so that might change what you see from what I ...
