Yes your view looks great wish mine did that.

I followed each of your steps precisely and still my image is pixelated. In soft proof mode it looks good. I sent the file to Fred perhaps you have it but other files look the same way.

I passed your images along to Mike... It is still very early am here in Florida.
It looks fine here, butI need to investigate some more.   The wonderful detail is missing in the thumb, but I sort of expected that.
Mike will have the  answer.

(off the wall)  Far fetched....    Any chance you have a softener filter on in GLOBAL FILTER?

Thanks for your help in sending the images.
Fred

Your image does look more pixelated than I'd like.  It has to do with the resolution of the original vs the resolution of the live view images.  That particular combination produces some aliasing.  In the next version, I'll have it produce a higher quality preview if you select that "Best quality" thumbnail setting.  Keep in mind that Qimage has to be able to produce fast previews with potentially dozens of images on one page, so the priority is usability there.  In the live view, you are primarily judging print placement and cropping.  If you want to judge quality or how the printed page will look, you can use soft proof as you discovered as that is more for viewing a preview of the output.

Regards,
Mike

2019.107 now has the improved quality live view and page editor (as well as improved thumbnails).  Just be sure to rebuild your thumbs in 2019.107: you can do that on a per-folder basis by using View, Rebuild Thumbs/Cache.

Mike
