Re: A little nostalgia

I'm ashamed to say that I don't remember the procedure.

I'm curious to know if it would work with LCD monitors, as it was designed when CRTs were typical...

A little nostalgia

Found this CD in a box and I'm wondering if the monitor calibration tool could be resurrected?

I remember I ordered version 1, and was delighted to receive version 2 in the mail...

Re: Update Available - Version 8.0.335

Wow, you are not kidding... Tried retouching some portraits, to remove shiny spots on noises, and Detail works like magic.

Thank you.

Re: Committing a mask and closing tool

Thank you for pointing out the "Update transformation with mask" setting. If I click on Feather or Blur first, then click and change the Midtones slider, for instance, and then re-open the mask option, it's like a commit (running man) has been clicked. Resetting the mask option to zero doe...

Print window dimensions

It's a small detail, but when the Print dialogue window first opens, the "Rendering Intent" drop-down box is just barely visible at the bottom. This can be corrected by making the window dimensions larger, but perhaps it could be fixed so the default size allows this line to be visible? PW...

Re: Update Available - Version 8.0.269

Mobius: thank you. But now changes to the Amount slider have no effect; changes stay at 100%. Shift-click on mask works as it should.

Re: Update Available - Version 8.0.268

Thank you for the detailed information. And for introducing Erin Babnik. She has some sublimely beautiful images on her site.

I'm trying to wrap my head around the use cases for the tool, but I'm fascinated by the visualization.

Re: Update Available - Version 8.0.268

Trying out the Mobius transformation, I notice that Shift-clicking on the Mask button has no effect.

(The Hue Saturation transformation looks promising. What a cool way to visualize the colour scheme of an image. Can you share a little more about where the idea came from?)

Re: Update Available - Version 8.0.262

I can confirm an improvement with Multipass Sharpen - ran it again on the very large file, and this time it stopped with an error, instead of locking up my system.

Re: Cutting large images into tiles

Oh, that is brilliant in its simplicity. Works beautifully - I have opened and run the workspace file on a few other images of varying dimensions, and it works perfectly. Of course, you knew that would happen, but for me, this is close to magic. Thank you for the support and clarity on the subject. ...
