I know sounds strange but here is the situation. I use TOPAZ tools for sharpening and denoising as needed. The plug-in works great because the resulting TIFF file is stacked with the original RAW file but is displayed unstacked.
More than once, I've gone back to do further editting on the photo and mistakenly made changes to the TIFF rather than continuing on the RAW file. What I would like to do is flag the TIFF file as read only to prevent this from happening. Yes, I know user error.
One approach is to show the TIFF in File Explorer and change the properties to R/O. I could then likely use Locktastic plug-in to show the file labelled red.
I hope I'm not the first person to try and solve this. Looking for other ideas as well.
Thanks
