[darktable-user] Focuspoints

2018-02-04 Thread ternaryd
Hi, The Exif files as provided by my Nikon includes the selected focus point(s). When looking at the images in the camera, I can choose to display them. Is there a way to do the same in darktable? If not, would it be possible to have sort of an overlay which can be switched on and off, maybe draw

If you use KDE, you'd better avoid Nvidia. See http://kde-bugs-dist.kde.narkive.com/RYzm58yW/plasmashell-bug-347772-new-kscreenlocker-greet-using-100-cpu-on-plasma-5 It's been open for years. There are a few suggested workarounds, none of which really worked for me. Kofa On 5 Feb 2018 01:02, "Ro

Interesting, thanks for the rundown.  I don't really like the idea of proprietary graphics drivers, but it seems like Nvidia is still my best bet.  Hopefully someday the free AMD drivers will be up to par and I can switch back to them. ...now I just have to go see if I can get my hands on a de

If the operating system and window manager don't have compatibility issues with the GPU, GPU processing in Darktable works like a charm (and it's very useful, specially if you intend to hang onto that computer for 5 years or more). The caveats regarding Linux-GPU compatibility: - if you want to us

Oh yeah, I'm just talking about the price of the CPU, not the whole PC. I'm planning on doing all out on RAM and solid state drives as well. I guess GPU might be of some concern as well, how has GPU processing in dark table on Linux been going lately? I know it exists, but I'm always scared of a
