One of My Favorites but….
Timeticker
ACDSee has always been one of my favorite and most used apps on both the PC and the Mac. It is fast and you don’t have to import photos to edit. You can even edit and view RAW files without importing into the app like most other programs. The Mac version seems to be less impressive than the PC version but still worth the money.The biggest issues I have which should have been fixed by now is that on a 4k screen the thumbnails can only get so big (The largest thumbnail size is too small and barely usable in my opinion) They need to allow you to increase the thumbnail size to a larger size more like Graphic Converter allows. The only other really annoying thing is that when you batch process and convert large amounts of files From PNG to JPG the program sort of finishes the process but then has a beach ball for about the same amount as it took to process the files before it unfreezes the application. So, if you Convert say 500 images and it takes about 5 minutes then expect to wait for roughly another 5 minutes until the app is unfrozen. The app is also Unresponsive in the Force Quit application Screen. Although if you force quit, the files have already been converted and the app once again works. What an annoying work around.
