v2014.109 08/06/13 Priority: Low v2014.109 adds an option to clean orphaned database entries to the "Utilities" menu and offers some optimizations to the database search.

Without the CD, the utility found the orphaned tags. Anything deleted was easily retrieved from the recycle bin so you do have one chance to backtrack before emptying the recycle bin. The progress meter on a search longer than a second or 2 is a nice touch, thanks Mike ;) Terry Title: The "Eyedropper Tool" broken? Post by: Mack on August 08, 2013, 01:52:06 AM Have a portrait. The "Eyedropper Tool" show the "Color to alter in underlined R (Color Select pane).
The "Eyedropper Tool" position is shown to be at 2411 2384 (X & Y) and Color at that position is shown as 219 195 173. So far so good. I enter a value of 3 in the R Red column instead of Default 1. Pop-up shows a definite Red color change. So far so good again. OK makes the large image on the left Red as it should be. However, if I position the "Eyedropper Tool" in the now very red image at the above (same) coordinates of 2411 2384 the color numbers remain shown as the old values of 219 195 173? ??? No change of the red value at all in the Eyedropper Tool even though the edited print is now very red? Something is screwy somewhere with the Eyedropper if the values do not change even though the print has become redder. (Fwiw, I'm trying to make the print shift to an exact Pantone skin value of 236 195 178 but the Eyedropper Tool isn't cooperating and seems stuck even though I can change the image color in the Editor Color Sel. array and the printer prints the color change as well.)

I've note this characteristic in the past and believe the Sel Col eyedropper reads the unfiltered image without being modified by the monitor profile. I assume it is done this way for "technical" reasonsTo see the new RGB values, with the Preview closed, place the mouse pointer over the position to be checked. However remember the monitor profile changes the RGB values on screen. Terry |
