I have these ones also :

When zooming in on a large image / canvas, is there any keyboard shortcuts in order to move around the image ? When I zoom in close on an image there doesn't seem to be a way to pan around it.

Right Click and drag image around - If you forget theres some instructions at the bottom

TR, do you think it would be possible to apply the effect on a transparent layer?

[mottoman 278]

Thanks TR, never noticed that

TR, do you think it would be possible to apply the effect on a transparent layer?

It's an adjustment brush - all effects modify an image. The Dodge and Burn use a color matrix and all the others are Built-in PDN adjustments  applied in brush form.

 

As Billie Preston once said, "nothing from nothing leaves nothing, you gotta have something"

 

[Eli 1,005]

You are right. I guess we have something to start another project. An idea.

Thanks for the ongoing updates, TR! You are a super guy!

Hello. I finally wanted to try this plugin out. Unfortunately, I've run into a few problems.
I'm not sure how the plugin is supposed to normally work, so maybe some of these things are fine.

- The UI control area seems to be cut off on my screen. I think I can see the edge of it a little in the upper right.

- When I clicked to at least see what would paint, nothing happened. Not sure if I need to select an effect first, like burn or dodge, but since I can't see the control area I can't do that.

- When I "Restore Down" the window isn't an adjustable scalable window.

 

 

Some of my Display details :
My computer monitor's native resolution is 1920 x 1080.
I have my computer's "Display" setting to Medium - 125%.

 When I clicked to at least see what would paint, nothing happened. Not sure if I need to select an effect first, like burn or dodge, but since I can't see the control area I can't do that.

 

Increase the exposure then Click and drag - Every subsequent pass will increase the effect

 

 

 

 

My computer monitor's native resolution is 1920 x 1080.

I have my computer's "Display" setting to Medium - 125%

I'm going to have to borrow my sons screen for testing.

Look for an update soon

[TechnoRobbo 1,157]

I tested at 1920 x 1080 at 125% but I could not reproduce that effect. I made an educated change (a guess) tell me if it worked.

Version 1.3.18+ tested to 192 DPI at 1920 x 1080

Ready for download.

[Cc4FuzzyHuggles 319]

I did a quick test.

 

I can now see the controls.

Your exposure advise worked.

Thanks.

Your Welcome Cc

This is an amazing plugin. Really a must have. Thanks TR.

 

 

Any chance that you and Rick could perhaps incorporate this into the main PDN user interface via the floating "Tools" menu? That would be great...

[TechnoRobbo 1,157]

Ask Rick. If he wants he can have any of my code. 

[Ishi 191]

Perhaps send him a PM about this?

 

I really think this deserves to become native on a future version of PDN. Its some of the main bits that should be on the Tools menu like other image manipulation software.

[racerx 268]

Using the De-Saturation brush is a great way to reduce Red-Eye caused by camera flash. It also works well for pets eyes....

 

[Eli 1,005]

Thanks racerx, Great thinking! It is a great use of the effect,

[Seerose 3,514]

 

 

@TechnoRobbo! Thank you so much. I've combined so. I don't know whether that's so right?

Hello TR,

 

My issue with this plugin is that it seems to render slow on my computer. For instance, when I use the blur function, there are a few second delays before it does the blurring on the selected area. I seem to have experienced slow rendering issues with some of your plugins that I tried, one of which is the Bokeh plugin I have told you about last year. It has to do with some of your rendering algorithm perhaps? 

 

I use a low spec netbook machine. Its specs are :

 

Windows 8.1

2GB RAM

Processor Intel® Atom CPU N2600   @ 1.60GHz, 1600 Mhz, 2 Core(s), 4 Logical Processor(s)

 

If there's anything you can do to improve the rendering speed of your plugins for machines with specs comparable to mine, that would be greatly appreciated as that would mean better usability of your plugins for low end computers as well.

 

This happens on low resolution images as well.

 

Thank you.

Hello Ishi,

 

Do you have many effects installed? I do and I experience the same problems as you do. I noticed that effects work better/faster when I remove the effects I do not need and place them to a temporary folder.
