Unable to load Monitor Curves

Post by davidh »

Alpha 31-Mar-2018

Monitor Curves cannot be loaded into the Monitor Dialog box. Neither the predefined Dot..% curves nor any user ones.
Do I miss something?

Also
The help says that the monitor curves are enabled only when then Monitor Curves dialog is active, but in reality they can be toggled even after the dialog is closed. But only until the dialog is reopened. The the toggle button grays out when clicked on.

It seems that the curve stays active even after the Monitor Dialog is closed, but is deactivated when the dialog is reopened because no curve is automaticaly loaded to it. Why not? In PWP7 always the curve used last was automatically loaded, which was fine. It would be comfortable to have automatically or permanently loaded the latest curve, unless the dialog was reset and closed with no curve. This way the toggle button would just enable or disable the latest curve without the need to open the dialog and load a curve.

The help also says that the curves are located:
C: \Users\ <Your user name>\AppDat a\Roaming\Digital Light and Color\Picture Window

But when you try to load a curve, you are directed to:
C: \Users\ <Your user name>\Documents\Picture Window Pro\Monitor Curves

I did a lot of work on Monitor Curves and edited the help file. It should be working better now in the next (2-Apr) release (see Update Log for details).
