Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual
We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.
Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.

Trying to get to grips with APP. Edited a DSLR stacked image, and the saved JPG is less contrasty/saturated than the final edited image showing in APP?Â
Here's a screen shot showing the difference. I've output in the various colour space options but it doesn't make a difference.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Yes, this is due to the JPEG compression. JPEGs are 8-bit, APP can process in 16- or even 32-bit. When saving as a JPEG, the color space gets compressed and the algorithm tries to get as close to the original color value as possible, but there will be a difference. Try saving as a TIFF and compare. This will be big, but you can probably see it has more clarity.
