Is anyone else experiencing a crash when selecting the Save to Folder drop-down menu in the queu? Asking 'cos my system is kind of parkinsonian right now. OSX 10.11.6 Grab attached for clarification
Ha ha ha, chinese cookie I don’t know what to tell you about that code, but I must thank you 'cause somehow I figured I could changed (actually add) both paths to the prefernces in the ~/Library/Application\ Support/RawTherapee/options
Ufff, I’m so relieved it’s not my tractor leaking again
BTW very very impressed with speed, handeling, response and overall stability of RT5
Now I can finally ruin all flowers on my garden =)
Hope one of you Mac people can help me. I am new to RT and most of the sliders are sufficiently similar to Lightroom that use of RT is intuitive. However, I am truly stumped trying to go from RT to Photoshop (and hopefully back). As I understand the process, I am supposed to go to Preference > General > Select Adobe Photoshop Installation Directory and then select “Other Command line:”. What am I supposed to type into Other Command line? I have tried every combination that I can find on Google but no success. All I get is: “Cannot start editor. Please set the correct path in Preferences.”. What is the correct path???
A second, but minor issue, is related to the size of the RT screen. On start-up the screen is small, roughly 7 inches by 13 inches. (18cm by 33cm). I can click on the Fullscreen button and the screen enlarges but when I quit and later return to RT, the screen is small again.
Thank you, but the procedure outlined on Rawpedia has not worked (maybe I typed it wrong).
This is what I typed, “ -a Photoshop”. Clicked OK
When the image screen reopened I typed Control E
After a 10 second delay, I received this error message
If I removed the space in front of the -a, I didn’t get the error message but Photoshop did not open either
RT looks like a great Raw Processor but if I am unable to get it to work with an external editor it has marginal benefit to me.
Thank you for your response
Continued to experiment. This time I typed the “open -a Photoshop”.
clicked OK. And when I saw the image screen, I typed Control e. (Tried it with the external editor button too). Did not get the error message and did see:
After heckflosse’s heads up, this is literally what I did :
I came here = ~/Library/Application Support/RawTherapee/options
You can command + shift + G to get there faster =)
Dragged that options file into an editor, TextEdit also works
Then added PS’ (short) path and app full name, like so
[External Editor]
EditorKind=2
GimpDir=
PhotoshopDir=/Applications/Adobe Photoshop CC 2017/Adobe Photoshop CC 2017.app
CustomEditor=Adobe Photoshop CC 2017
PD
Though it is a bit to the side I also added a path to my desktop in the the Save to Folder as the before mentioned and this preference where misbehaving. Cheers

Just added the Gimp path too, he was getting jelous, good doggy here some
My main goal was that opening those dialogs didn’t crash RT but I didn’t really tested to see if worked properly, sorry about that This - in the Other command line - is working for me:
open -a /Applications/Adobe\ Photoshop\ CC\ 2017/Adobe\ Photoshop\ CC\ 2017.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe\ Photoshop\ CC\ 2017
it’s no point in showing the options 'cause it uses double “” for the empty spaces and in the posts that desapears
PD
I can see that my above text was in the wrong place
You should be able to test the open -a command in the terminal, I’d guess your path to the executable file is still incorrect. All RT is doing is calling your editor from the terminal.
In my messy osx 10.11.6 is working, but ONLY IF directly in the options file mentioned above 2 “” are added additionally for each blank space… that’s something neu for me . Also had to rename partha’s “McGimp-2.9-cce” to just GIMP in order to be able to use it, as have accumulated and still testing diferrent versions – inserting the path to GIMP didn’t seem to make any difference.
Just went back reading and found @Morgan_Hardwood’s link to rawpedia; read it and now I feel a bit stupid as open -a “Adobe Photoshop CC 2017” works. Sorry guys 4 the pollution. BTW @mac_user2 check if you’re using straight quotation marks, in your above answer you weren’t
