Non-destructive macOS photo editor Picktorial has been updated to version 4. 0, which is free for customers who purchased version 3. 50. Picktorial 4 brings new workflow and digital asset management (DAM) features, including its own index — a move to shed its reliance on macOS Spotlight — as well as an updated search function with advanced search fields that aren't supported by Spotlight.
With the new search capabilities, Picktorial 4 users can find content globally or within specific folders using filters like capture date, rating, IPTC metadata, tags, and more. The software's DAM also received a number of other changes, including jpeg+raw image stack support, a new image browser with two layout options, batch exporting and editing, support for albums, smart albums, and quick albums, plus the option to sort images in the browser based on rating, name, capture date, and more.
Joining the DAM changes are new workflow features, including automatic adaption to Apple's color scheme for a uniform appearance, a new viewer that displays an image's focus point, support for dual-layer jpegs that save all editing info within the image file, automatic NAS and connected external drive syncing for seamless remote access to projects, and support for high-resolution images up to 100MP.
Picktorial 4 is free for existing version 3. 5 customers, but some features, including unlimited adjustment layers and batch editing, are only available to Picktorial Premium customers. The plan is offered for $9. 99/month or $4. 99/month for an annual subscription. Customers also have a $69. 99 perpetual license option that includes a year of free maintenance updates. Existing customers have the option to subscribe for $39. 99/year until February 28.
