TWP46 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 When creating a HDR image, with two or three Tiff files the software crashes when loading the Tone Map. Auto ghosting is checked. I signed up for a 90day trial 3 or 4 days ago, but the start up screen tells me I have 9 days left. If I turn off Tone Map, the HDR process completes. I tried the panorama stitching and focus stitching both work well. Thank you for your help! Regards, Tom Wiggins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will find this in your affinity.store account. On 1/21/2021 at 7:20 PM, TWP46 said: When creating a HDR image, with two or three Tiff files the software crashes when loading the Tone Map. Auto ghosting is checked. This must be an isolated issue, as I can't replicate it here. Does it happen why any TIFFS? can you attach some samples so we can have a look? Have you got Hardware Acceleration ON or OFF in Preferences > Performance ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @KennethJCoxPhotography, Are you sure are you using the beta? That option is only preset in 1.9 beta and not in the retail version (1.8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWP46 Posted February 1, 2021 Author Share Posted February 1, 2021 I'm using 1.8.5.703. I just tried HDR merge with Olympus ORF files and TIFF versions of the ORF files they both worked! Thanks, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KennethJCoxPhotography Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Being an admin does not give you the right to patronize me! Had you read what I wrote the first time you would have seen that I had stated I was using the full version! I would have thought if this issue is an issue in the full version it would have been fixed before releasing a beta with same issue after all this is payed software and not free. I have noticed this issue has been reported in other version releases so beta or fall it needs addressing and fixing not sarcastic reply's from someone who is supposed to be here to help.

Better report your issue in the appropriate forum Yea well maybe in the next beta Affinity can add a feature where we can contact a dedicated technical support instead of having to go through a forum to address an issue. Regardless It does not take a brain surgeon to realise the issue is just carried on from previous versions if it had been fixed in 1.8.5.703 then this post would not even be here. Capture one has dedicated support, Adobe has dedicated support affinity needs to do the same. dominik, AlainP and Move Along People 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not really sure what kind of "dedicated" support are you looking for. Depending on where on the forums you post, you will either have a QA member (if it's a QA matter - posted in Bugs or Beta forums), a Tech Support member (if posted in Questions), or a Customer Service member (if posted in Customer Service) replying to your thread. We also have an email address: affinitysupport@serif.com . ---- You've posted in a BETA thread, so one assumes from your first post that you're using the beta.

In this case please don't post in a beta forum, as you don't know if that issue has actually been fixed or not. Please use the general Bugs forum.

Well, not really. There are BETA specific issues, and issues that were ported from 1.8 to 1.9 beta. But that does not mean ANY bugs found in 1.8 are also present in 1.9 beta. A lot of the bugs have already been fixed. ---- Anyways, back to the chase. If you create a new post here from this link: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/forum/71-bug-reporting/ , following the template you find at the top of the page, we can have a look. Please include a crash report with your post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
