If it increases contrast too much you can pull it down with the opacity slider. You can also do sharpening by blending the high pass module with ove

Yes more RAM is a cheap way to get higher performance, but due to OpenCL, a better graphics card may make more difference, and not just in thumbnail generation. On 20 May 2013 04:35, Derek Kite wrote: > I found that increasing to 16 gb of memory made a difference. My works > flow is to edit the

I found that increasing to 16 gb of memory made a difference. My works flow is to edit the image, switch to light table to save. With 8 gb I would have to wait till the thumbnail was rendered, which would be seconds. With 16gb it its almost instantaneous. On May 19, 2013 12:38 PM, "Emmanuel Lacour"

most operations in darktable are `unbounded'. that is, they don't care about color gamut or hdr content and just accept all input, compute with it, and will output super-wide-gamut high dynamic range values again (hence unbounded). the old blending mode `normal' was cutting off your values at some
