You can adjust the time delay before text fields are updated in File/Preferences.

Rather than delete all the characters first, try selecting them all and then typing or double-click to select all.

While the ^C, ^V and ^X keyboard accelerators work in all edit controls, for some reason ^A does not.

Most dates in macros are currently rendered as yyyy-mm-dd, and not yyyy:mm:dd. However, certain dates such as the time the photo was taken are stored in the image metadata as strings and are thus formatted by the camera. The Calendar transformation already gets the month and day names from the curre...

An update is available to Version 8.0.251 (21-Nov-2021) The changes (taken from the update log) are: Added a Preview feature to let you display the results of one transformation while editing another. See the new help file under Preview Window for details and an example. Multipass Sharpen: simplifie...

What I normally do is to use the Brightness Curve transformation which gives you more direct control than Equalize. When using Brightness Curve, you can create a mask of some region using the normal mask tools and then, by clicking on the histogram button in the upper right corner of the dialog box,...

Both programs work fine with Windows 11 and PWP 8 can be downloaded and installed normally, however the PWP 7 installer does not seem to work any longer for some reason - probably overzealous security settings. Note that Windows 11 requires the 64-bit version of PWP 7. The workaround to install PWP ...

Interesting, but not going to happen this week.

DxO's Export to another application, once configured, saves the exported image as a TIFF and then calls PWP to open it. The result is similar to what would happen if you did a File Open to open the file. If PWP is not already open, a new copy is opened. If PWP is already open, as soon as it finishes...

An update is available to Version 8.0.250 (16-Nov-2021) The changes (taken from the update log) are: Brightness Curve: fixed problem with Bilateral/Guided setting not being preserved when re-opening the transformation. File/Save Back command: if you recently opened a script file, the starting folder...

I fixed the problem with Brightness Curve for the next release. There is a speed increase for Guided only for large radius settings. For small settings it may be slower. >> I tried Multipass sharpening on the Sharpen Test Pattern. If the BS mode is chosen, Sharpen Threshold seems to work as expected...

If i were going to implement undo in Multi Color Balance, I would want to implement it in all the other transformations as well. There is a relatively simple mechanism I could use to implement this, namely saving a copy of the command line every time it changes, but this is still a whole lot of rewo...
