Commented on Start Autostack on selected foldera for meUpvoted Start Autostack on selected folderCommented on Automatic slabbingI think a dedicated automatic-slabbing feature would be a very welcome addition. I really like the new mini-slabbing option in Retouch. It is useful when I want to select a small group of frames to make a specific correction to part of an image. However, I see this as a different…Upvoted Clarify Raw DNG vs. Developed DNGCommented on Mini-stack from source frames in RetouchH Ryan That makes sense, it was really interesting doing the experiment and comparing the results. SueUpvoted Masking in retouchCommented on Mini-stack from source frames in RetouchHi Ryan, I’ve been having a play with manual slabbing while you’re working on adding slabbing to Macro Studio, and I thought the results might be useful to share here for anyone interested in trying it themselves. I first did a direct stack of the 142 original ORF frames, which t…Commented on Full-screen view of the imageThank you, Ryan! 😊 That really makes me happy to hear. It’s lovely to know that you’ve had the same thought yourself, and I’m so pleased you think it would be useful. And thank you for upvoting it — that really means a lot to me. ❤️ I’ll look forward to seeing it when you get th…Created Full-screen view of the imageCreated Shift for straight Clone strokes in Spot CorrectCommented on More zoom and smaller Clone brush in Spot CorrectHi Ryan, Yes, I think a small brush with a harder edge would be closer to what I need for those very tiny corrections. When I was working around the fine strands, I needed to be able to control exactly which pixels I was affecting.

The older one from 18th August brought the StackCheck notice back, and I also tried one from yesterday, 6th September, which brought the notice back too. The newer one suggested that frames 17 and 24 may be hurting the stack.…Created Feature Request: Run StackCheck again on this stackUpvoted Adjustment sliders: use arrows to live-adjustUpvoted Photoshop / Adobe Bridge PluginCommented on Calculate a "focus overlap" metricI really like this idea. I think it could be a very useful learning tool as well as helping with the actual stacking. It would be great to learn how much overlap is enough and when we are using more frames than we really needUpvoted Calculate a "focus overlap" metricCommented on StackCheck - delete unused imagesJust one other thought — if there were a lot of stacks, I wonder if having one general “StackCheck rejects” folder could get a bit jumbled. It might be useful if Macro Studio could create a “StackCheck rejects” subfolder inside the folder for each individual stack, so the rejecte…Commented on StackCheck - delete unused imagesI think my first instinct would be to move the rejected images into a subfolder, just in case I wanted to look at them again. But if they really aren't contributing anything useful to the stack, I don't think I would normally need to keep them. Having the option to move them rath…Upvoted StackCheck - delete unused imagesCommented on Mini-stack from source frames in RetouchYes, Ryan, I think that would be a very good user interface. Trying the new Lightroom plugin has really brought this home to me. When frames come over from Lightroom as RAWs or TIFFs, Macro Studio only has access to the frames that were actually sent over; it cannot access the ot…Created Mini-stack from source frames in RetouchCommented on Automatic slabbingI have used slabbing in Zerene Stacker, but not very often. The main times I have found it useful are with stacks where there are lots of legs or other fine parts crossing over each other, which can produce ghosting. Slabbing can help with that. More often, though, I use a few sm…Upvoted Automatic slabbing
