DM Adieu Photo — Support
DM Adieu Photo is an image editor for the Mac. Layers, masks, adjustment layers, layer styles, type, vector shapes, brushes, and layered PSD files, in a native app that runs entirely on your Mac. It is built on PhotoCraft, the open-source editor by the ArtCraft team, which Dependent Media packages, sandboxes and supports for the Mac App Store.
Opening and saving files
Use File › Open, drag a file onto the window or the Dock icon, or double-click a file in the Finder. The app opens PSD, PNG, JPEG, TIFF, WebP, BMP, GIF, OpenRaster and its own .pcraft documents, and camera raw files from most makers. Save keeps a layered document as PSD or .pcraft; Export writes a flat image.
Because the app is sandboxed, it can only read and write files you choose yourself: through the Open and Save dialogs, by dragging them onto the window, or from the Finder. Files you have opened stay available under File › Open Recent after a restart.
Non-destructive editing
Adjustment layers keep every edit live. Add Levels, Curves, Vibrance, Hue/Saturation and a dozen more from the Layer menu, mask them to an area, reorder them or switch them off, and your original pixels never change. Layer styles (Drop Shadow, Stroke, Outer Glow, Bevel & Emboss and the rest) work the same way on any layer, including type.
Keyboard shortcuts
The shortcuts are the ones working designers already know: ⌘J duplicates a layer, ⇧⌘D reselects, ⌘T transforms, B is the brush, V the move tool. Preferences › Keyboard Shortcuts lists every one and lets you change it.
Printing
File › Print uses the standard macOS print dialog. The app manages colours by default; choose the printer profile in the dialog if you prefer the printer to manage them.
What is still rough
The editor it is built on is young and under heavy development. Some tools and dialogs are missing or behave differently from what you may be used to, and the generative features of other editors are not here. Updates arrive often. If something breaks, save your work, then tell us which file, how many layers, and what you were doing.
