sam3 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Does anyone have a solution for removing the stress patterns that show up in toughened glass doors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 A regular pattern can be removed with the 'FFT Denoise' filter in Affinity Photo, but that may not be appropriate here. If you attach an example we'll have a better idea of what you're working with.

sam3 Posted March 30, 2018 Author Share Posted March 30, 2018 Hi Alfred, I will try your suggestion later, but in the meantime, please find attached photo in question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl123 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Not sure if the 'FFT Denoise' filter could handle this so you may want to try a composite or some heavy duty window cleaner. sam3 1 Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.

walt.farrell Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 To me, that photo seems like it was taken with a polarizing filter on the camera.

One solution might be to reshoot without that filter You could take a series of images with the polarizer rotated through various angles, from the same viewpoint (with a tripod if possible); then load them into a stack. Tweaking the options could give you an optimum solution. I would stsrt with minimum.

It may well not be possible for the OP to reshoot, in which case something like Carl’s composite is obviously the way to go.

carl123 Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Well, in brief... I selected just the island and copied it to it's own layer Then select all the glass panes and delete them from the original background layer Find an image of blue sky on the internet and put it as your bottom layer Find an image of the sea and put just above the Sky layer and drag it down until it is level with the island Tweak and refine as necessary PS Once the glass panes are deleted you can add virtually any image you want Sclong137 and DM1 2 Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.

Alfred Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 The right-hand pane needs tweaking a little to reflect (sorry!) what’s happening in the original picture, but that’s probably quite easy to fix.

Applying the FFT filter to this made absolutely no difference. John Quote Windows 10, Affinity Photo 1.10.5 Designer 1.10.5 and Publisher 1.10.5 (mainly Photo), now ex-Adobe CC CPU: AMD A6-3670.

Applying the FFT filter to this made absolutely no difference. Thanks, John. I suggested FFT Denoise as a possibility before I had seen the photo in question, but having seen it I’m not at all surprised that the FFT filter doesn’t do anything!
