UPDATE FROM MABULA
I have had a very rough 2 months unfortunately health wise. I was struck 3x in a row with bacterial infections. The second infection occurred after a routine hospital checkup and I became very sick. I had to rest and take a lot of antibiotics. Once I was recovering and restarting work 1 month ago, I again became sick. The infection was not yet gone, so even more antibiotics and rest was needed. Needless to say, it took a lot of my energy and I needed a lot of rest.
Finally, the infection is really gone and my energy is coming back step-by-step now and I have started work again. I am terribly sorry to have kept you waiting for support. I will address all outstanding questions and e-mails step-by step and will be on the forum daily from today.
APP 2.0.0-beta47 will come soon as well, a lot of work was already completed before I became very ill, so the release is also nearly ready for you. Beta47 will be much faster actually. Many workflows will be more than 2x faster, mosaics can even be 10x faster than before because registration really received a major boost... all compared to beta46. Before I release it, I will make sure that everything is working properly and then I will release it.
I'm a real beginner and have used APP for a short time. I have processed a number of images in APP and then tweaked them in photoshop as a TIFF. Today something strange happened, after processing an image and then saving it as a TIFF, Photoshop only shows a very flat image of a few stars, not the processed file I created in APP. This has never happened before and I haven't changed my process I don't think?. I have added a couple of screen shots, the one on the left from APP and the same file in PS. Any advice gratefully received bout what I'm doing wrong

PS I hope I have put this in the right place!
Make sure that you havent saved in 32 bits TIFF.
Hi John @jao2020,
Thank you very much for your question and welcome on the APP forum !
Okay, if you save an image like a TIFF with the save button below the histogram on the right side, make sure that the stretch selectbox is enabled. Without the stretch, the image is saved without the stretch that you see in the preview window.
Please let me know if that solves it?
Like Stefan @digitaliz-se indicates, it us usually better to save it as an 16-bit TIFF, because some versions of Photoshop by default will not use the enclosed ICC profile in 32bits TIFFs and then the colors can look differently in Photoshop. With 16bit TIFFs all should be fine.
