PSD import error in Storyboarder 2

Small request regarding saving PSD files.

Storyboarder 2 was just released. It is an awesome storyboarder tool now, and works like a charm. It has an option to work together with Photoshop via PSD files which are watched for changes.

I set PhotoLine as the default for PSD files, and it works up to the point when I save the changes to the opened PSD file from PhotoLine: Storyboarder will try to open the new PSD file, but fails with this error:

I also tried this with Krita, and it works fine with Storyboarder.

Would it be possible to have a quick look at how PhotoLine saves PSD files, and please fix this error?

Storyboarder is free to download:
https://github.com/wonderunit/storyboarder/releases

Steps to repeat:
1) create a new storyboard, and a new board.
2) paint a bit in this board.
3) Tools: Edit in Photoshop (before doing this, ensure PhotoLine is set as the default application to open PSD files)
4) the board opens in PhotoLine. Draw in the ink or pencil layer.
5) save the psd file, and return to Storyboarder

Result: the error message. Also try this in Krita (step 3: change to Krita as the default PSD application) and this works really well. (Note: I use the latest beta of Krita: https://krita.org/en/item/first-beta-of ... -released/)

we had a look on this.
I think the problem is, that PhotoLine saves sometimes not necessary, but not incorrect data in RLE compressed images.
We removed this and hope it will work with 22.40 Beta 8.
