Re: Mosaic processing

... I opened via the 'open' option with the data source being OSC. This results in a monochrome image and you only get the colors back in the color module. If you choose the 'linear' option without specifying the data source you should be fine. Regards Stefan

Re: Mosaic processing

... be wrong. Experiment! Just whichever you do you don't want to save out while in tracking/compose mode (button lit up green) prior to the Color module, as your TIFF save at that point will be grayscale (despite technically being an RGB TIFF). Let us know if anything like that works and you get ...

Donut stars

... with no IFD or RoI. This is at 800x, so 1/4 scale vs the first image optidev-only_800x.jpg And - there's already a donut effect. In the Wipe module it is too blown out to see if the donut is there or not. In the post-Wipe OptiDev, it is back - unsurprisingly (now down to 300x): in_optiDev_post-Wipe_300x.jpg ...

Re: Messier 106 et al.

... but it comes with quite a few other tools as well, which do solely work in the linear mode, in 32bit fits. Its only a specific exporting stretch module which then makes an image non linear, and you can do that or not. From my side, I have not done a Full Startools work through using only Startools, ...

Re: Messier 106 et al.

... gradient removal, and star colour calibration tool built in that I can choose to use (and do) instead of the Startools Wipe and then later colour modules (I however, do often use colour module in STools later sometimes as well.) There is also in APP a very good initial stretch, which personally ...

Re: Messier 106 et al.

... when processing more or less field filling nebulae or star clusters. So I suppose you are setting the right background level using Contrast module while I did that using OptiDev. It just doesn't matter I guess. I'm often not satisfied about the look of the background that StarTools produces. ...

But I didn't use the Contrast, Sharp and Super Structure modules. No acutance ;-) Shrink module of course would help to tighten the blown up ...

Re: Sh2-308 Dolphin Nebula Processing

... you can pick the Bicolor preset and everything should act similarly to the OSC bicolor you are used to. In 1.9, you can use the extra Compose module options that will pre-select that going into Color, but I think you have to choose the OSC duoband option since there isn't one (yet?) for discrete ...
