Open With on the Mac

Beitrag von MikeFromMesa »

PhotoLine is one of two pixel editors I have on my Mac and I have noticed that when I select one or more raw images and right-click to use Open With, PhotoLine does not show up as an option although my other pixel editor (Affinity Photo) does. When I select one or more jpg files and do the same thing, PhotoLine does show up as an option.

The fact that PhotoLine shows up for jpgs, but not for raws, made me wonder why PhotoLine is not considered to be an acceptable raw editor by the OS. Is there something that PhotoLine has to advertise to the OS to qualify for inclusion in Open With that it is not advertising? Or is it something else.

Is there some way for me to address this issue as I now have to open "Other ..." dialog box and browse for PhotoLine, and that just adds what seems to me to be unnecessary time to processing.

Most of the time I don't use "Open With", but drag files to the application's icon in the dock. This way opening raw files works fine.
