Auto Star Mask not working in Sharp Module

Post by gustavo_sanchez »

Well, the post title says it all. When I try to create a star mask in this module, the progress bar just hangs in there, without doing anything. I have to cancel and get out of the module, create the star mask from the main menu, and then get back into the Sharp module again for it to work.

Hmmmm... Thnaks for reporting this!
Does changing the threshold to something less than 100% make the mask generation succeed? Did you use a specific setting or preset?
Can you replicate this bug reliably?

Hello Ivo,

This has happened to me about 3 times, on the same session or after quitting the app and starting over. Settings are the defaults, I have not tweaked any in Sharp Module, at least not before the masking.

I will try to do the checks you requested.

If you've still been seeing this bug (or similar bug in another module), this is (hopefully) now fixed as of 1.3.5.262 beta. Let me know how you go!
