very annoying source panel bug

Recommended Posts

I'm doing tricky focus merge. There are about 10 source images. (in fact there were a lot more, but I focus merge some already focus merged images because it seems to work better on this shoot).

In the source window only 3 source images are seenable at the same time, and a slider makes possible to see the other one.

When selecting a source image that is not one of the first 3 (the one seen when the slider is completely up), either the slider moves up and show the 3 first images and not the one choosen, or worst the slider moves up and one of the 3 first image is selected, but not the one that has been clicked.

When having to paint (clone brush) a lot of tiny corrections on a very hires image, trying to choose for each one the best focused image, this drives you crazy.

As a workaround (on Windows at least): you can drag the source panel to be free floating, or as a separate column over the full height. This often eliminates any need for scrolling.

Special interest into procedural texture filter, edit alpha channel, RGB/16 and RGB/32 color formats, stacking, finding root causes for misbehaving files, finding creative solutions for unsolvable tasks, finding bugs in Apps.

My posts focus on technical aspects and leave out most of social grease like „maybe“, „in my opinion“, „I might be wrong“ etc. just add copy/paste all these softeners from this signature to make reading more comfortable for you. Otherwise I’m a fine person which respects you and everyone and wants to be respected.

Thanx NotMyFault. (Neither mine !)

Good workaround if not too much source images (good for typical lanscape focus stacking). But when dealing with very narrow depht of field and a lot of source images (some precise macro shoot  or some weird telephoto shoot as I do here) there can quickly be not enough room to see all sources without sliding (I should try to put my monitor in portrait position ;).

Anyway thank you  for your response, this can solve lot of case.
