I was working on an image. Wanted to try out the Focal Blur adjustment I had just purchased. It’s new to me so when I made a mistake to the blur I automatically hit the escape key. Topaz Studio Shut down. Surprised, I restarted Topaz Studio and hit the esc key and sure enough Studio shut down again.
Is this normal behavior? Does it have a reason.
Thanks, Barb
I just tried and did the same thing for me. But, to back out of a mistake CTRL-Z on the PC and I assume Command-Z on the Mac is the accepted convention to go back 1 step each time that CTRL-Z is entered.
This is normal behavior for Studio … but totally unexpected in the context of normal application usage and IMHO should be corrected, but I am simply a user.
Unexpected in a way that can cause the loss of an image.
Ctrl-Z is undo. Esc is I need yo get out of what I’m doing. I don’t think I expect ESC to exit me from a program?
I may be wrong but when using ESC… it is meant to quit a program, and using Ctrl-Z with revert it back to the original image.
If you find that you applied a result you did not like to an image … just use the Undo and Redo buttons at the bottom of the adjustment panel.
Well the issue with studio is it is a destructive exit … just exits with no warning.
To see normal use of the ESC key try LR, PS or office programs.
I understand your point. But I normally would use Undo/Redo or Ctrl-Z to correct a mistake before considering using ESC, but agree that there should be a warning if using ESC.
