Digital Light & Color

Once a mask is built, is it possible to invert it for some other use later on? For example, using Color Range in the masking tool I created a mask for the blue tones in a beautiful puffy-white sky. Then, using this mask I modified the sky hue toward magenta to remove a bit of the cyan. Then, I wante...

Hello Maciej,

Thank you. I will keep that in mind.

Never mind...I figured out what I was doing wrong. If I would have payed closer attention to the message PWP was displaying at me that was the clue! Because I still had an active mask on an active image window a couple of windows back, the software will not allow me to build a new mask until that pr...

Hello Kiril, No, that is not what I'm trying to do. I know how to build a mask creating the 8-bit B&W mask window which can be used in most transformations; also saved for some later use. What I want to do is create a temporary mask whereby I may apply a transformation through that mask, then ha...

Hello All, Sometimes when I've been using a piece of software off-and-on for many years and something happens that I don't expect (or don't think it always worked that way) I feel a little foolish asking, but... When I build a mask that I wish to use only on a temporary basis for use with a transfor...

A very BIG thank you for the fast response in resolving the issue with some X-Trans sensor cameras!

Hello den,

Thanks for the tip and link to the suggested technique. I will definitely give this a whirl...

Hello Jonathan, Thanks for the suggestion. I do agree that clarity is some combination of mid-tone contrast boost along with some sharpening, but it's generally targeted mostly at the mid-tones. Therefore, not sure a general S-shape curve or any global contrast slider will provide the same result. F...

Kiril, Sorry, didn't mean to upset. I just don't think it's favorable to dl-c to make a blanket statement that PWP 7 supports X-Trans when quite a few of the Fuji X-Trans based cameras do not, in fact, open properly. Not good business practice to upset new customers is it? Rhetorical question...just...

Hello All,

Other than a high radius / low amount USM pass, is there any other way in PWP7 to mimic Clarity like in Lightroom?

Thank you.
