Generally, a middle gray is what I find best for photo editing a dark interface will usually result in darker images since they appear to be lighter than what they actually are in comparison to the surrounding darkness. Combined with low contrast gray tool icons and text, your eyes are in for a workout if you spend a lot of time editing.

The non-optional near-black interface is definitely going to be a turn off for some users.

I suppose this is a long way to say they followed AppleвЂ™s aesthetic and design language very well and Pixelmator Pro is a Mac app through and through. With this, Pixelmator Pro seems to have an extra polish in its design Nothing ever вЂњjust appears,вЂќ the fading and other animations always provide context and feedback thatвЂ™s relatable to the real world where nothing just simply вЂњappearsвЂќ either. There are smooth fade-in-fade-out animations everywhere while moving through the tool panels and even simple operations within them provide subtle animated feedback, such as selecting a radio button. Once you can see what youвЂ™re working with, the interface does look very graphically pleasing. By clean, I mean that in a truer sense than you are probably expecting all the tool panels are collapsed or hidden away requiring an initial setup time to get things to be in a useful arrangement for photo editing.

When first opening Pixelmator Pro, we are greeted by a clean interface. One month later, hereвЂ™s my early impressions of Pixelmator Pro. Whether it was to finally escape the never-ending Adobe Creative Cloud subscription fee, or for those just getting started in photography and looking to get their toes wet, there was a good amount of hype and excitement leading up to its release. In late November 2017, Pixelmator ProВ was released to those eagerly awaiting a new photo editing solution on the Mac.
