Re: File name edits cleared by type change in Save Image

I was never a fan of the '-n' filename extension and I have learned to automatically remove it to insert something that makes sense in my own editing flow. When I started using PWP 7 I discovered that my cleverly planned :) edited filenames and edited files were disappearing on me. Many re-edits lat...

File name edits cleared by type change in Save Image

After editing a file, when I try to save using File -> Save As I edit the file name, select a different 'Save as' type When the new type is selected, the File name type suffix changes as selected, but the File name itself reverts to the unedited value. This is occurring with PWP 64 v7.0.5 Beta under...

Re: Out of memory when using clone tool

... I am running PWP on a 64-bit system. Only PWP runs out of memory not Windows. There is still much memory left for other programs. I see two problems: a) The clone tool seems to use too much memory for the undo information. b) PWP should be a native 64 bit application in order to utilize more th...

Re: Windows 7 64bit Support OR ?

Or should we stop waiting for 64-bit and start posting out requests for the fixes to get proper operation as a 32-bit app under Windows 7 64-bit?

Re: Adjusted Special Effects>Grid on large file kills PWP

The example file I gave is a 314MB, 16bit, b&w. It is the only image open in PWP. The grid I was generating is black. Try it for yourself with a New generated 16 bit b&w 56000x2800 and default grid parameters. Adjust the left and right ends of the grid slightly toward the center. Then hit OK...

Adjusted Special Effects>Grid on large file kills PWP

I was working with a 56000x2800 16bit b&w on a Windows XP media center OS, 4GB ram laptop with PWP 5.0.1.18. Overlaying a 14 major, 5 minor horizontal grid. I moved the ends of the grid to positions within each end of the image by about 500 pixels. On hitting 'OK', PWP died. I duplicated the res...

Re: Cannot close a window

I really do appreciate the new features in PWP5. I'm not annoyed by warning messages when I want to do things that might not be best for some users' applications of PWP. I would like to be allowed to make the choice that applies to my personal work flow. What annoys me is that the only way I have to...

Re: Cannot close a window

Bernard This is an alleged feature that bugs users who process large files with PWP 5 and find their ram being eaten up by masks until they have to save the current image (45 seconds), remove the masks and reload the image (45 seconds) to be able to continue processing. Unfortunately the minimizatio...
