Continue to look for the apple photos plugin to save as a raw file instead of Tiff, now JPEG.
v3.1.2, OS X Ventura 13.6.7, iMac 27" 2019 with Radeon Pro 580X 8 GB, when I choose Remove from Enhancements, at the end of āPreparationā, the GPU usage remains at 74% to 80% indefinitely, without me doing anything, not even selecting the area to remove. If I try to select the area to remove, the mouse pointer moves jerkily, making the operation very difficult. When I confirm the removal of a small object, the operation is unacceptably slow.
If TPAI will go out and take pictures for me, process them, sell them and put the money in my account it will still not be enough to make up for the stupid floating panelā¦
Other than that, all good.

About which floating panel do you talk? I donāt see such a panel.
Hi, why not simply dock the floating panel to the side
After updating to 3.1.2 PAI freezes on start with a white screen and becomes unresponsive. I tried repairing it with the installer, resetting my PC between changes, removing it entirely and then reinstalling, but unfortunately itās the same issue whatever I do. Iāll try rolling back to the last version for now.

Hello,
I donāt know if this bug has already been reported but Iām going to say it because itās quite important.
So if you import a batch of images that will have the same filters and you apply them to one image and then make a current setting for the whole batch and then export the batch, only the first image will be processed. The other images in the batch will not be processed. For the other images in the batch to be processed, each imported image must be analyzed. Only then can I export and all images will be processed. Itās a real waste of time. In the case where I encountered the problem, I only had 12 images. But the result would have been the same if Iād had 20 or 40 or more to do. So it would be nice if all the images in the batch could be processed without having to do the analysis on each image by clicking on the preview of each image. This would save a lot of time.
I had the same issue on a previous release. Support knew about it and said that this happens if Autopilot is turned off in Preferences. Turning it on fixed it but with v3.1.2 I no longer have the issue. (Windows 11 PC).
Is there a reason why photos shot in āportraitā orientation (maybe that one has a better expression, sorry if thatās the case) shows up as rotated in the film strip?
They do show ok in the main view and also come out right after applying most enhancements (I say most), but:
If I rotate and crop any photo showing up rotated (portrait orientation) in the film strip, this:
becomes this:
It might not show that much in this one (yeah, it shows) but when processing people they get āsqueezedā (shorter and wider) real bad.

Can anyone reproduce?
Portrait orientation, crop and rotate a couple of degreesā¦
Edit - added my crop & rotate selection
Edit 2: This does not happen in GAI. There it crops and rotates fine and the export comes out as expected.
I see, Itās enough strange this bug.
Hello, clicking on the main picture doesnāt show the āoriginalā / preview anymore, am i alone ?
It has changed , hold space bar to see before and after.

Iām having the same problem. In fact, I literally just installed Photo AI (went back to v 3.1.0) and launched it. I then closed it, and relaunched it. I see a thin frame, a white title window with (Not Responding) in it, and it is completely unresponsive. It is taking up 3-5% of CPU time, but doing nothing.
This is after a simple reinstall, launching, closing, and relaunching. Weird. I think I will go back to 3.0 like you did.
V3.1.2 - Having rolled back to 3.1.0 as 3.1.1 froze on the opening page, Iām now presented with an unresponsive update-to-3.1.2 window. Nothing on this is clickable. Staying on 3.1.0 for now. Iāve said it before, but are we users your beta testers? Windows 11 on a recent AMD laptop.
The āwavesā you circled were already present as posterized areas in the original low rez artifact-laden JPEG. Upscaling just sharpened them and made them more visible.

hoo, i certainly missed this in the changelogs (iām mainly offlineā¦ and the changelog is not available when offline), thanks for the info ! iāll redirect the shorcut to one of my mouse button lol 
I said before too, yes we are the beta testers for Topaz. In fact, very few companies does that. Lets see Topaz do public beta testers for shopping cart, we will get lots of freebies merchandise.
All Apple Photos plugins (including Photo AI) save files back as JPEG. Apple Photos does not allow a plugin to save back a RAW file. The TIF extension showing is a bug, it will be a JPEG.
Please clear the registry for Photo AI with instructions below and see if that fixes the white screen issue.
Delete registry for Topaz Labs applications
I added an issue for this so we can reproduce and fix it.
Could you try the registry deletion steps as well? Delete registry for Topaz Labs applications
