Print Album

Sorry. I cannot find the "Print Album" menu item under the "File" menu. Is "Print Album" somewhere else now?

Thanks,

Re: Generating Motion Blur

Robert, I don't have any ideas, unless you want to do something heroic (displace many image copies along a motion line and superimpose them in a stack-images transform). MATLAB's image processing toolbox has functions to define a motion-blur kernel that can be used to generate a convolution of the i...

How to cancel workflow with breakpoints

I apologize if this has been answered -- I have a workflow with a breakpoint (in the 3-tone widget). I load the workflow with 100 images, and 5 images in, I decide I need to cancel out of the whole thing and start over. When I click the workflow cancel button, it stops working on the current image (...

Re: Reduce (USM) sharpening halos

Maciej, Do me a favor and compare this method with one I have used (was this a suggestion of den's maybe?). Oversharpen the image as in your first step (producing image 2 -- maybe use unsharp mask with radius=3), then composite the oversharpened image in "darken" mode with the original. It...

The Noise Reduction Transformation

Hi,

I would like to play with the Noise Reduction Transform -- is there documentation somewhere that I did not find, but should have?? I'm curious what the various levels are -- same as what applies to the RAW dialog?

Thanks,
Bob W

Re: Mask question

What are you planning to do with the color square (with border) once you have the mask? For example, my first assumption was you were lifting the bordered square off to another image, in which case the composite tool might offer some options, since you can rotate things there. The other possibility ...

Workflow Error

Kiril/Jonathan, I am running 64-bit Win7 with a multiple core cpu. I am using a workflow created under 5.0.1.9. The workflow simply resizes, sharpens, and saves jpegs in a directory. When running the workflow under 6.0beta, I notice (1) images are processed in parallel (nice), and (2) some of the im...

Image Timestamps and P60.browseinfo

Kiril/Jonathan, I like the new features of PWP6.0 -- I am looking forward to trying things out. I like to sort my images by the EXIF timestamp, so that changing the image title/filename does not mess up the order images are displayed in the PWP browser pane. So I select the sort option "Sort by...

Re: Best Product/Method for Removing the Time/Date Stamp from Ph

Darius, I will assume you are asking how to remove the time/date stamp that is imbedded in a photo in the EXIF (or maybe IPTC) metadata. To do that with PWP, and again assuming you are asking about a jpeg file, proceed to save the jpeg file and in the save dialog select the menu item that says to sa...
