Photo and external editor

Hi,


Before with iPhoto we can opens a RAW picture with Camera RAW (PhotoShop) just by chose the external editor like photoshop but now I think it's impossible.


Somebody knows how to open a picture directly by Photo to Camera RAW?


Thanks,


Louis

Until the 3rd party developers update their software so it can interface with Photos you'll have to export the RAW file to the Desktop, edit it there, save the edit as a jpeg or tiff and import the new file into the library.


What version of Photoshop are you using? The newer versions can access the library via it's Open âž™ File âž™ Media Browser interface.

Event if you can access the library with your version of Photoshop, the edited version will still have to be saved to the Desktop and imported into the library as a new file.
