Export action greyed out in export dialog
I'm trying to export an image I imported as an exr. The tone mapping is fine and I save as an auh. But the "Export" is greyed out no matter what format, image size or options I select.
I'm using Auroa HDR 2019.
How do I export?
Thanks,
Evan.

As per my original post, resizing makes no difference, including sizes below below 15k px.
Also, why is there a limit on export resolution? I though this product was aimed at serious photographers. Where is this limitation documented? What other limitations does the product have that we should be aware of?

Evan,
Seems to me, this is one option that should not have a problem. As you mentioned "serious photographers".
For now, the only way around this I have found, is to export the file through Lightroom, then do the editing, apply and send it back to Lightroom for sizing and export.
Thanks Skylum for making things more difficult. Looks like you need to have a chat with AI.

If it was a bug it would have been resolved quickly by developers. I submitted the problem 7 months ago and it's not done yet: https://community.skylum.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360006248332-Saving-a-25812-x-12906-panorama
When developers are asked about the exporting problem, they respond about an issue for downsizing the image before export. Because yes if you have imported a big panorama and worked for one hour, you cannot do anything with it, not event downsize it.
The only explanation I have is there may be a commercial limitation with the HDR engine maker. It means Skylum is not the owner of the process engine, and would not have considered the 15000 px limitation clause in the contract.
It's like buying a Ferrari that has a 50 mph limitation and you should be happy with that.

So, I have just run into this same problem, which seems to have been around for about a year. I'm new to Aurora HDR... is this the kind of support I should expect? As with the others, it doesn't matter what I select, what I set for resizing, etc. And just as bad, there's no indication as to what the application is waiting for.
My original is a DNG merged as an HDR-Panorama in Lightroom, 17696x4888 pixels in size. It loads and behaves as expected in Aurora, far as I can tell.
If I load into Aurora via file copy though the Lightroom "Edit In" menu, Aurora reads the file and saves it. But this file is clipped relative to the HDR DNG, so this is unacceptable. It seems almost like the program sets a "read only" flag on import of the DNG which is blocking the export for absolutely no reason. Apparently this is an immensely complex problem, saving a file, since you all haven't fixed it iin 10 months. Saving is a pretty important part of any useful photo editor, eh?

I successfully exported 5 Tiff files 27500x11500 from Lightroom to Aurora HDR, and exported the merged file back to lightroom. But there were features in Aurora HDR I could not use (I don't remember which ones) or my exported file in Light room was corrupted (I had green matrix like vertical lines in the exported image).
-
The time to tell me that the program cannot handle a professional workload is prior to purchase. Or at the very least, while I am loading my photo. The current behavior, allowing me to load the image, work on it, then simply grey out the export button without explanation is unacceptable. Clearly a big you have decided not to even address in the code.

I came across this problem as well. A "solution" that I've found works well is to crop the photo into two or more pieces, each of which has a width less than 15000 pixels and which overlap one another. Then I re-stitch the exported images in the software I used to make the panorama in the first place. Bit of a pain, but gets the job done, and without loss, as far as I can tell.

Same problem here (Aurora HDR (2019) Version 1.0.0.2550)!
This problem, known at least since october 2018, is still not fixed mai 2020! (Aurora HDR (2019) Version 1.0.0.2550)
This is clearly a bug: What would be the use of being able to edit a large file, but not being able to export it for further use!!??
Thank you so much Yoni Ross (not from the Skylum Staff) for the workaround.

Hi Dan,
At this time, our software can only remember the last location you've chosen for export. It's yet to have the ability to save some custom settings in the Export dialog.
each open it is click on,click on,click on click on to reset it to my final settings >>>> Could you please specify this part?
