If was only designing HiDPI graphics this might be nice I know some folks who always have to work at 200% in Photoshop cuz stuff is so small. Again, some simple math shows that 1000 pixels is about a fifth of the 5120 px screen, or in inches a fifth of about 23". That's really 200% it should be about 4.5" on a side, as it is in Aperture, Lightroom, Photoshop, Graphic Converter, etc etc. A 1000x1000 pixel images measures about 9"x9" on my retina iMac in AP. The pixels already exist.Īnd my version of AP does not ever show an image at 1:1 (100%, actual or pixel), nevermind the business of other screens. Working with photos is somewhat different from a graphic that doesn't start with a photograph, in that there are no pixels till you put them there. Granted, some might want to see the same "size" on very different PPI screens, but I think the default should be that 1:1 means what it says. Yes, I can understand that relative sized views like "fit" or maybe "Actual" might be the same, but 1:1 (which my math calculates to 100%) should be that: one pixel for one pixel, and is relative to whatever you're displaying on in the sense that different display devices have differently sized pixels. ![]() Many of us want to proof images 1:1 on different display devices and this mucks that up. He wrote "Affinity will show the same thing on both retina / non-retina screens - because that's how retina stuff should work." No user element stuff (icons, text, etc) should work that way but NOT the work image. Intended, I guess so correct? not so much. ![]() So at least Apple agrees with me about what 100% on a retina iMac means. The problem is that I'm stuck with all that extra canvas at that point, so that's not a solution.īTW, if I view that same photo in Apple Photos, and I use the slider to set "100%," it measures that proper 4.5" dimensionally. If I create a new canvas, 5120x2880 (5k iMac), and set the dpi at 220 (rounded PPI of 5k iMac) IT will show properly at what I consider to be 1:1 at actual size if I place that 1000x1000 image on it, that image will now be 1:1 as well. I don't notice that much, since I'm retouching photos and so don't make use of the canvas, since in fact it covered 100% by the open photo. I hate to keep saying it, but I'm looking for one pixel in image to one pixel on screen or 1:1 or 100% or even "actual size" if that means actual pixels (although of course more expensive pixels are smaller than cheapo pixels.heh).Īnd it would be odd to the point of counterproductive to have a "print" size measured in pixels, since we use dots for print, pixels for display devices or images themselves, but I digress.īut I think I've sussed out that it may have to do with the canvas. Part of the problem is that the sentence quoted doesn't say 50% of what. It shows a 1000x1000 pixel image at 2000x2000 on my retina iMac, which is 200%, or 2:1. Command-9 is called "pixel size" in the menu.
