Hi, I just saw similar issues when I have 16bit image. The halos disappear when converting image to 8bit.

Thank you both for the clarifications. I should have better results now.

Many Thanks :D Regarding 3. If I'm exporting w/o embedded icc profile, does it matter which profile do I choose for output? Also, 4. With APh (or windows) I got "sRGB IEC 61966-2.1", "sRGB built-in", "wsRGB" and "wscRGB". Which should I use?

Hi, once I set up my old PC for rather okish results regarding colors, but now I need to redo this whole procedure and I'm a bit lost (I forgot). If I have a monitor profile and I intend to export for web (sRGB). Which (sRGB OR display) profile should be used where: 1. In the windows settings (control panel -> color management -> devices, added to the proper display) 2. In the image itself? (Document -> Assign ICC or Document -> Convert ICC) 3. When exporting? I should probably set ICC profile to sRGB (I don't intend to attach the profile, and I assume it converts the image, so it should looks the 'same-ish' as on my display but in 'perfect' sRGB space). Please advice.

The list is... long. A lot of things I was looking for. Now need to test how it works.

That "control" is a bit murky, yes. Alas, I have no mobile pc of my own and I'll be on a business trip for a long time

Thanks for the replies, I'll take a look at that portable windows thingy.

Hi, is there a way to install onto a usb drive or similar? I have a device that's not mine (my company) and I can use it off-hours, but I should not install SW on it, so I was thinking if there is a way to have it completely on external drive. If not, any other ideas?

Ok, so... I have this part of photo. Then I added a layer on "darken": What I want to do is select what was changed only ('darkened'), so I can work on masking this to better fit what I have here. Also, my question is more general: how to select where a layer has actually been applied (visibly) on an image.

Hi, maybe I was not clear. So... to simplify the question: how do I select parts of photos that have been affected by another layer. ie. If I use darken as blending, It will affect parts of photos, and I want to select these parts only.

Hi, I have a photo with a white sky, and some foliage. So, I added a layer with some clouds, set it to darken, but I don't like how it looks. So, what I'm looking for is a way to select what is changing when these clouds are added. Is they any way you can think of to do this?

You said you're using the wrong tool and then say it's a bug in SW. Which one is it then?

Hi, you can't access the help with F1 when you already in the stack creation tool. this coudl be an issue if you spent some time selecting the photos already.

Hi, can you add a box/setting to make it possible to switch the layers it's sampling from? I tried to set it but I can't and sometimes I need to switch back and forth from one type to another.

Hi, just as you can use "alt" and the sliders in levels, maybe you could show how the split toning is applied when moving the balance slider?
