I have the new(er) V of Topaz Photo AI, and on the screen, it tells me to Drag & Drop, (or Drag) a photo to the screen for Editing, but when I open Google Photos and try to drag a photo on to the Topaz screen, nothing happens.
I'm missing something here, so does anyone out there have any Suggestions or Ideas? -
Thanks in Advance!

There should be some way to do your browsing within Topaz Photo AI. Access Google Photos from within Topaz Photo AI.

You can only drag and drop photos stored on your computer. Two options. Save the photo to your computer then drag that image to Topaz or open the photo in an editor, PS, LR, etc. and use Photo AI as a plug in

Thanks, Mr. Curmudgeon! - I had No Idea! - I'll follow your idea/suggestions, and hope this solves the 'Problem'!

( I mostly like Google Photos, but there are a few aggravating features about it, like this, and it requires 'Extra Steps', and interrupts the 'Flow' of things!) - Actually, I really miss Google's 'PICASA' Photo App, where you could Edit, and email photos directly from the App!
Thanks Again, - Pat

You need to drag the image file that’s on your computer. If it’s coming from Google Photos you need to download it first.

It’s not really a “feature”, it’s how it works because those image files don’t exist on your hard drive.

hoto has to be on your computer unless you can access the Google Photos from within Topaz AI
