Greyscale Blending and cropping


Recommended Posts

I'm following one of James Ritson's videos, showing how to create a greyscale image from the channel information and then use this to improve the tone of a washed out image.  It works well, but if I start by cropping the image I get to the point where I select Equations in the Apply Image pop-up and it all goes horribly wrong - I'm suddenly looking at a different part of the original image, and the mapping is way out when I change the destinations!  What's going wrong?

Perhaps you need to rasterize the image after cropping, to remove the cropped pixels?

Hi IanSG,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, I have been able to replicate the issue on my machine, showing a bug that appears to apply the crop again once you use the Apply Image equation.
I'll make sure the devs are aware of this, in the meantime I'd recommend doing as @walt.farrell recommends, rasterizing the image after cropping and before creating the Greyscale layer and then the Apply Image equation should work correctly for you!

Please note -

I am currently out of the office for a short while whilst recovering from surgery (nothing serious!), therefore will not be available on the Forums during this time.

Should you require a response from the team in a thread I have previously replied in - please Create a New Thread and our team will be sure to reply as soon as possible.

Many thanks!
