Re: Stack Images and warnings

It's the same shooting target workflow when Stack Images are reopened. The warning is helpful, but it comes up every time I do edits to Stack Images within the same session. I'm not quite sure what I could do in Stack Images to change the dimensions that would affect downstream transformations - I i...

Re: Grid Transformation mysteries

I also discovered two other ways of doing this:

- Use Add Border instead of Tile to replicate the quadrant's 2x2 grid to the entire square,
- Add Borders of 1/4 of the side of the square, Grid at 3x3, Crop the borders.

Upstream and Downstream direction

Is it correct that 'Downstream' from a transformation is defined as all the transformations that depend on the output from the current one, and conversely, 'Upstream' are all those on which the input to the current transformation depends itself?

Stack Images and warnings

I always get this message when reopening Stack Images. Is there a way of suppressing it somehow - or maybe limit it to one warning per PWP session?

Re: Grid Transformation mysteries

The idea was to have two vertical and two horizontal lines passing through the centers of each of the quadrants, without the lines passing through the center of the entire square, hence zero thickness of the major lines. I treated zero thickness as switching off this particular set of major or minor...

Re: Grid Transformation mysteries

There seems to be something not quite right with the vertical minor lines.

Re: Execution time - workflow efficiency

Disabling color management of thumbnails definitely makes updating the image browser much faster
This is an understatement - disabling colour mgmt for thumbnails speeded things up exponentially! Thanks!

Plus the new recalculations fix adds to it. Awesome.

Execution time - workflow efficiency

There are transformations that are more computationally intensive than others. But how much time/memory is spent on switching between transformations: saving previous output, loading new transformation, opening the previous output, and probably something else), versus executing transformations thems...
