PhotoDirector

Where the hell is it? Every time I update the software, I have to relearn where all the tools are. Can't you guys make upgrades without moving all the tools every time. "Edit" is simply gone... Even your own website isn't up to date anymore: https://www.cyberlink.com/learning/photodirector-photo-editing-software/115/guide-to-hdr-high-dynamic-range-photography?srsltid=AfmBOoq9IqFuYG0I7OCS-W8BmlgineAM8tB3JE4CBI24PRwIqhcPaPM_

In Photoshop, I often used the clone tool to "paint" irregular areas having chosen a source area. I can find the clone and heal tools in PhotoDirector (although they seem to do the same thing), but there's nothing I can find to reproduce the incredibly useful clone tool in Photoshop. I'd appreciate help from former Photoshop users who know what I'm talking about.

How do you stitch photo's together in version 17? I can't find photo merge anywhere.

I have uninstalled OneDrive on my Windows 11 PC. When I open PhotoDirector 26, it shows the location for project information and preview cache to be in OneDrive folders. How can I change this, since I'm not using OneDrive?

How can I add a caption to a photo in PhotoDirector 7?

Back again with the same problem - PhotoDirector is still not saving animations made in its own software. I make the animation with the app's own tools, click Export, and nothing happens. This used to be my go-to app for quick animations but it hasn't worked in a while. I'm using a Windows 10 machine fully updated.

I've just had to have a new hard drive fitted to my windows PC. I need to create an IPTC profile but can't remember how I do it. Currently using PD14. Any advice greatly appreciated.

Hi all, I’ve been using PhotoDirector for basic color correction, especially on portraits, but I sometimes struggle with skin tone accuracy and getting consistent color between shots. I’ve read about using curves and white balance tools, but it still feels a bit off — especially under mixed lighting. Do you have any workflow tips or hidden tools in PhotoDirector that help with color consistency? I also handle some projects manually outside of PhotoDirector using Photoshop-level tools (sometimes for clients), so I’m happy to share what works if anyone needs help too.

Lost Layers. All I did was take my PHI file with all my layers, into Library so I could print it, which is stupid as hell, and when I returned to the Library, and back to design, all the layers merged to one layer. Moving between Library, Design and others is set up stupid. I'm sure there is no way to get them back so now have to recreate the entire damn thing. PISSED!!

I have photodirector mac and have purchased the premium feature. when I open photodirector on the mac, it keeps telling me to buy the premium, but then it tells me I have the premium. When I try to save a edited photo, it tells me to sign into cyberlink. It then doesn't recognize my email and pwrd which i use for the cyberlink website. I haven't been able to get any help on this and am ready to request a refund for the programs that I have purchased, but are not working. When I request technical support through email, I get no response.
