2  Mike's Software / Qimage Ultimate / Rotate left green remains attached to image after rotation. on: September 04, 2021, 01:17:41 PM
Using current version of Qimage in freehand mode. Working on a collage poster over several days; saving the job. Today while editing the display suddenly is showing the green arrow on every image I had previously rotated. Is there a way to remove the arrows or do I have to start over with a new job?

Further exploration results:
Going to Help tab and doing a full reset solves the issue.

Playing around with various job files --save or recall, it seems  The job I had been using when the problem occurred changed something that affected any jobs loaded after that one.

I hope I'm right.
Thanks all for chiming in.

Will do but need to be more specific. Full main page? Which tab showing on the far right window? Edit page?
Appreciate the help.

Control Up is for use on the main page layout and Control A is correct for the edit page screen.

Tried the keyboard shortcut. didn't work. Also tried: JPG vs CR2 raw, using the main page view instead of edit view,reinstalled current version of Qimage, installed oldest version I have-- qu20-118--problem persists. Hauled out my laptop. It worked on a much older version but not on current version. Unfortunately, didn't write down that old version number and don't have the file--I store most of my filers on an NAS drive.
7  Mike's Software / Qimage Ultimate / "edit page" anomaly on: July 25, 2021, 03:51:52 PM
In "freehand" mode when in "edit page" display and have overlapping photos, selecting the one underneath and right-clicking on "bring to top" sends that photo to the next page instead of keeping the same position but above the other. Selecting the top one and clicking "Send to bottom" works as expected--the upper one now overlaps under the other.  Is this a program error or do I have a computer malfunction?

Did that. Your profile gives better results but does not totally eliminate the pink coloring.

Since the "work-around" did provide an excellent print  and the lighting combination that produced the problem was inadvertent,  we might as well stop here.
I think the culprit is the RGBA LED fixtures. We have an HD video camera that sends a view of the stage to several TVs in the lobby and wings. Some shades on the back CYC  appear drastically different on the monitors. e.g. a nice vivid red turns  muddy with just a hint of red. I think the frequencies produced by the sensors in the camera do not  match  those needed by the RGB filters in the TV producing some anomalies.  May be true than  that the software that needs to process the camera data cannot always translate into a suitable print if weird lighting conditions are the cause.

Thanks for your help.

Yes!!!!! That worked.
Many thanks. I've been using Qimage for years. It produced impressively better prints from my first digital camera a 2K Vivitar. No other software gives such great results with few hassles.

Camera: Canon Eos Rebel T6s
Bottom line for the raw image info ends in ICC: EOS Rebel T6s.icm  (I assumed this is the camera profile included with the Qimage software)
Bottom line for the jpg converted by Qimage ends with ICC: sRGBIEC611966-2.1 (this is the version that prints correctly)   

Side notes: I shoot RAW + jpg with the camera. The camera's jpg version shows the purple/pinkish color cast.
                When I click to view the raw version "full screen"  the "off color": version seems to appear very briefly and snaps to the overall blue I  want to print.
12  Mike's Software / Qimage Ultimate / Printing a raw file I'm doing something wrong on: June 15, 2019, 02:29:03 PM
Canon RAW file. In settings:  "Use Camera profile"--supplied by Qimage. 
Printing to Epson 1440.
Qimage : let printer manage profile.
 Epson: ICM setting  for selected paper .
The photo looks correct on the monitor: Silhouette on a blue background.
Print has a purplish background with reddish tones near the top.

If I "convert" the image to jpg< the print matches the monitor when the "perform a profile conversion' box is not checked.

I think I know the source of the redness. Blue background produced by LED wash lights on a theater CYC. A halogen wash light with red gel must have been on at low intensity--not obvious to the human eye or to Qimage when it initially processed the raw file for viewing or converting but factored in when printing from RAW.

Am I missing a setting to avoid this problem?

Thanks. Didn't realize I needed <input> typd into the upper box. Clicking the browser button didn't give that as a choice.
14  Mike's Software / Qimage Ultimate / convert vs email copies on: February 06, 2019, 01:45:58 PM
I do all my work with the Canon raw format. Prints are beautiful. However, if I need a jpg version of the file the "Create E-mail copies match the print but the "Convert images" do not.  It appears that the red tones are diminished.  Faces with a rosy tinge look very pale. For a  photo with a reddish brown door next to a neutral  brown wall  the door matches the wall. I assume either process should give the same results but don't know what to do to make that happen.
