Yes, they do, Steve. I'm going to work a bit with the program now. If any issues I'll let you know.

Thanks!

I won't be giving up my Lightroom because I use the number/color tags to sort thru 1000+ images very quickly for my job but I do like it so far. One other thing I don't see yet is an ability to clone or heal like LR has. Much to learn.

Also wondering if there's an ability to switch from select to deselect with a simple "x" as I can do in PS. Haven't found it yet.

Thanks Donna,
I certainly wouldn't give up LR, or any other image editor I use (ie, On1 and others) either.
I doubt that there is much here that cannot be achieved with Lr, On1, PS, etc., in terms of general editing, such as the Lr basic panel, Tone curve, color adjustments, etc., etc., Although as you now have the program, you will be the best judge of that.

I do really like the Topaz plug ins, and I own all 17. My workflow is generally something like this: Lr>On1>Topaz (if necessary)>PS (if necessary). My concern, as I aluded to in my previous question, is this: Do the Topaz plug ins automatically load into the Studio program, and then after I do my basic editing would I then go to Studio and access the Topaz plug ins from there. If there are no dramatically new image editing features in the Studio program (which I don't know, as they do offer 10 or 24 "adjustments"), I am wondering if there is a benefit to purchasing studio, or just continuing using Topaz in my workflow, as I do now. I am also wondering if the new adjustments are different from the 17 Topaz modules I own.

I'm sure you can get the same results with LR and your 17 modules, Steve. Your post prompted me to see if I could still access my Topaz plugins from LR and at the moment all my "Edit In" options (including PS, On1 and Topaz) are not available. I have to do some experimenting to see what's going on.

Donna, that doesn't sound good. I certainly hope you resolve the issue quickly. Not being particularly computer literate I always fear potential difficulties when downloading new software. Let me know what happens.

Steve, they reappeared after I fully rebooted my computer so all is good.
