Re: [darktable-user] Black point compensation when printing
Thanks for the quick reply. As a matter of fact I can find reference to the 'black point compensation' in those pages when I want to print a file to my own printer BUT not when I export the file to be printed to an external lab of which I don't know what brand of printer they use.

[darktable-user] How To View My Photo At Actual Print Size in DT
I know that in photoshop you can view your photos at actual print size via the view menu item "Actual Size" which, in a nutshell, considers both the size of your print and the resolution of your monitor. Is there any way to do the same in Darktable? If yes, how? Ciao Vittorio darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org

[darktable-user] Permanently moving a preset diffuse or sharpen module before input color profile in the pixelpipe
Under ubuntu 20.04 I happily use darktable 3.8.1 - scene referred to develop the raw filesof my sony a6600. I created a preset diffuse or sharpen module for sharpening sensor demosaicing to be applied by default to any raw image. My problem is that according to the manual: ' recover the original image from sensors with an anti-aliasing filter or mitigate the blur created by most demosaicing algorithms (use thesharpen sensor demosaicingpreset and move the module before theinput color profilemodule in the pipeline),.' I do this operation manually moving the diffuse or sharpen module before the input color profile module in the pixelpipe on each image. Very time consuming indeed!!! Is there any way to move the diffuse or sharpen module automagically in the pixelpipe before the input color profile?

[darktable-user] Rawtherapee seems to be sharper than Darktable, doesn't it?
I developed a raw image (DSC00662.ARW) taken with my sony a6600 with both DT and RT using minimal intervention (see attached DT xmp file and RT pp3 file). As you can see from the details I enclosed in this message the RT resulting image looks by far better in terms of sharpness with respect to the DT one. Why is that and is there anything I can do to improve DT performance as far as sharpness is concerned?

Re: [darktable-user] darktable-chart fails to recognize my
Running darktable-chart from a terminal I was able to solve the problem. darktable-chart complained that in the original cie file was presente the string 'SAMPLE_LOC' instead of the required 'SAMPLE_ID'.

[darktable-user] Best demosaicing method for sony alpha 6600 sensor
I see that DT 3.0.2 defaults to the fast PPG method to demosaic images. I wonder whether for my sony alpha 6600 sensor a better choice for demosaicing exists.

[darktable-user] Darktable versioning is a mistery to me
On my linux box (Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic), after having used the official package DT 2.6.2 from the ubuntu repository for a while, I recently installed DT 2.6.3~git2.22c690a53 from a deb package I had found in the net. Now I read that there is also a stable DT version 3.0.0 available from sources (that, by the way, in spite of some glitches due to dependencies, I've been able to compile and use under a dedicated test user) and a 3.2.0 is under way. I confess that I'm completely confused by the versioning system of DT. 1-Could someone of you clarify this point to me (or point me to some article explaining it to me)? 2-Being a 'quiet man', not loving the 'bleeding edges' as far as programs are concerned, what is your suggested version I should stick to?

[darktable-user] Modifying an intermediate module
I wonder how it is possible to modify a parameter in an already opened and intermediate module. To clarify my problem this is an example. Let's suppose that my (cropped) stack is as follows 10 - Denoise (profiled) 3 09 - Denoise (profiled) 2 08 - Denoise (profiled) 1 07 - Denoise (profiled) ... ... If I try to modify a parameter, say, "opacity" in 08 - Denoise (profiled) 1 modules 09 and 10 disappear and I have to rebuild them again. Is there a way to avoid this?

[darktable-user] Unable to disable base curve module when opening new photos
Context: Linux Ubuntu 18.04, Darktable 2.6.2 In configuration -> Core options I deselected "auto-apply per camera basecurve presets". Nonetheless when I select a new folder of raw pictures I find the module activated invariably in each image in darkroom. The same happens when in lighttable I discard the history stacks from selected pictures and reopen one of them in darkroom. That base curve module is always there.
