Re: Add Border - Roughness

Ah, odd and even image dimensions... I can confirm that it now works without artifacts as intended.

Thank you.

Seems to be more apparent on smaller image sizes... In addition to the diagonal white lines, there also seem to be some other strange artifacts down in the lower left corner...

Add Border - Roughness

Hello, I tried playing around with the "Roughness Type" option in the Add Border transformation, and find that it introduces a sharp white line into the image, running diagonally up from the bottom left corner. Doesn't seem to matter which type is chosen, or what the amount and scale slide...

Re: Slow Startup

Great tip, thank you.

My impression was that PWP launched very quickly, but after this suggestion it's instantaneous. Amazing.

Re: Update Available - Version 8.0.508

Tried playing with Projection, and if you set the radius to zero, PWP goes away. (I am not asked to recover the workspace when I reopen PWP). Seems fine on values down to 0.01, but does not like 0.0. Update: shows a result with Spherical option, but then goes away, and I am prompted to recover the a...

Scratch removal crashes PWP

Hi,

Latest version (8.0.499), used scratch removal and when I use the mouse wheel to increase the radius, PWP froze and then vanished. Tried on a few images, of varying pixel dimensions.

I last used this transformation a few versions back, and had no issues.

Re: HDR processing option for PWP?

Right, thanks Pierre. I had forgotten about Expand Dynamic Range. Although I remember trying it in 2023, I found the results weren't what I was expecting so I haven't used it since. I tried it again today, and remembered why I wasn't fond of it - the limitation of using only 3 images. Many scenes th...

Re: HDR processing option for PWP?

I was thinking more about an augmented form of Stack Images.. load a series of images and then run exposure fusion on them.

HDR processing option for PWP?

I know nothing about how to implement something like this, but one of my students used ChatGPT with a series of images to produce an exposure-blended result. I tried this myself and see that ChatGPT used something called "average exposure fusion" to process the images. A quick search turns...
