Well, that'sa bummer.

Verified that this also happens in latest beta.

Hi, I'm trying to find out what's going on that I can't add more layers into my object. I've started to do some arranging and added an object (Diamond). Once I was happy with it's shape I copy-pasted it a couple of times (to have identical objects). Next I dragged-and-dropped a photo into my project ad arranged it inside on of my Diamonds. Did the same for another one. Now, no matter what I try, when I try to pull newly added photo into on of my shapes (even new ones) the object becomes a white mask. Fun fact, when I Undo, the objects becomes visible properly again, but the preview is all white for it. Also, if I drag it into one of the first two layers it works OK (but these have a layer inside already). Any ideas?

I just checked, the file is empty after crash.

Hi, thanks for the comprehensive answer, I'll take a look at these options for now and probably get back here with more questions. Once again, thanks!

I know, but the "weekend testing" sourds nice I think. I hope I'tll be up :) Ok, makes sense. I'll assume that if somethings not listed, it has not been fixed yet. Yes, it does, but I have no leftovers nor I can see anything after crash (before starting again), but I'll double check that again.

Anyone? :c

With a number of fixed problems already (as seen in multiple threads) when can we expect next build? Today for weekend testing or...? Also, please include known bugs in the release notes. Makes it a bit clearer. Also, I've had a number of crashes but not a single crash log/dump. Are you sure it's working as intended?

Yes, but this does not "hide/disable" the layer only soles it visibility. A bit off from what I'm asking.

Also, in the second video, I'd personally use quick mask to verify if the building is properly selected.

Hi, thank you for your videos, I've been watching these since yesterday. Nice and approachable (I forgot the right word here), you don't have the tendency to say too much about stuff, just going more or less to the point (as oppose to some PS tutorial makers). I'd like to ask for specific one thou, that would explain layers/layer stacking, I'm using the beta for some time now and I'm still not sure how it works when you have multiple layers inside a layer, what's the "direction" it takes when analyzing the layers order. For normal layers and groups I have no problem to imagine what's going on. For these "inside" a (pixel) layer I'm not sure. Also a detail explanation about picture and pixel layers could be useful. I noticed my background layer usually is "picture" but others added are usually "pixel" and I'm not sure how this affects each of these. Keep up the good work :D

DxO optics? I'm not sure what functional elements of Bridge are your requirements. "Bridge or better" ia very vague term, to say the least.

Would you mind uploading these photos somewhere to make testing easier?

There have been already reports of MX mice causing crashes. Can you post the exact model of your mice and driver version?

Done.

I mean, even sendspace could do if you need the files but links sent via private messages to developers.

Hi, I've just tried opening a bunch of files for HDR merge and as soon as I try merging them AP crashes with the same error. I'm adding 5 16bpp TIFF files that were extracted from Canon 7D RAWs with multiple exposure settings (around -2/-1/0/+1/+2 eV). I'm having no problems with opening these files separately (or for stacking for that matter). I could provide you with the files, but not via public channel.

Hi, just wanted to try Stacking feature and when I'm presented with the "New stack" dialog you can actually click "add" multiple times and you'll get multiple copies of "choose files" dialog.

Hello, I'm looking for some Ideas how to improve my old workflow. It concerns preparing files for Web Distibution (specifically Facebook). My current workflow was along these lines, all was done in PhotoPlus: 1. Final image (16bpp) is exported full-size (Canon 7D raw size usually) in PNG 8bpp (or 16bpp) 2. I run unsharp mask (amount: 0,6-0,65 / radius 4,5 / threshold: 5-7px) 3. Resize with Lanczos3 to 2048px longer edge 4. Unsharp Mask again (amount: 0,6-0,65 / radius 1,1 / threshold: 5-7px) 5. Save as 8bpp png This worked quite well but now I have not been able to reproduce similar results and also, Clarity filter looks much more interesting as it's available. Any suggestions how to improve my workflow? Any suggestions on how to make this better? Your own experiences?

Hit "edit" on the first post and then choose "Use full editor", you should be able to change the name there.

HI, I'm working off SSD disk (system+data), have 8GB for now, my CPU may be a bit dated but I do the same stuff in Photo and it's MUCH faster and more fluent (inherently be design), no stops to when switching from layer to layer etc.

Hi, I'm assuming the names of macros have not been yet fixed?

Hi, A minor bug: 1. Load up a image (ie. jpg) 2. Go to Filters > Blur > Lens Blur.... 3. Don't change anything (seems to be optional) 4. Go to Filters > Blur > Depth of Field Blur.... 5. Cancel 6. Notice Lens Blur is now open 7. "Cancel" does not work, but you can see that sliders do affect the image 8. Close with X button to close window Minor but annoying issue, may be a part of a bigger problem thou. And I think it will work with any filter.

Whil I can't see why it would be a problem to load a B&W file, I can't see an option to use the mask as z-depth. Though you may try just leaving the mask as is on a layer with filter applied. Then doing some fun with a curve after loading the mask (like U or V shaped curve, such that middle will not be affected but black (far) and white (close) will be affected).

I only get a merged image. For reference: I usually have one or more imported 16bbp tiff images as layers, with masks (sort-of manual HDR). Over that I have one ore more pixel layers with fixes (clones, copy/pastes). Over that I have two grouped level layers with masks. Over that I have grouped color corrections (HSL, Curves, color balance, etc. with and without Masks) Over that I have watermarks/logos. These easily go 350MB with upto 700MBs sometimes. (you can see why Photo can be a savior for me now with it's speed :) )
