And burn/dodge are pretty much at the top of the list for what would be the msot valuable to add, I think.</p> http://community.acdsee.com/forums/topic/overview-of-database#post-41979 Sat, 12 Sep 2009 21:23:25 +0000 Marc Sabatella 41979@http://community.acdsee.com/forums/ <blockquote><p><cite><a href="#post-41897">richardthue said:</a></cite></p> <p>On ACDSee Pro 2,0 I get a blue mark on a top level category if a sub category is marked.</p> </blockquote> <p>I understand, and others have also requested this feature be added back, so hopefully some day it will.</p> <blockquote> <p>It is also very slow because you need to switch between "Organize-tab" and "Property-Database tab".</p> </blockquote> <p>That's only slow if you normally have the Organize window open but not the Properties window. For me, it's almost always the other way around.&nbsp; I use the Organize window for only a few seconds at a time, when I want to view the contents of a given category, and I have it set on auto-hide so it goes away immediately after. But my Properties window stays up all the time, because that's where I can manage all the info about for my images.&nbsp; So you might consider rearranging your windows so that the panes that actually *need* to be open are, rather than avoiding using tose panes because they take time to open.</p> <blockquote> <p>One example.&nbsp; Every piture taken in year 2009 has a category 2009.&nbsp; This category is a sub category of category Year.&nbsp; With Pro 3 i must eiter open the Year category or switch tab to find out if I have made this picture a member of category 2009.</p> </blockquote> <p>Note that with the Calendar window, it's really unnecessary to go to all that trouble to organize pictures by date.&nbsp; But of course, I do understand that sometimes it would be useful to see the check mark you describe, and like I said, hopefully it will be added back some day.</p> http://community.acdsee.com/forums/topic/overview-of-database#post-41897 Fri, 11 Sep 2009 08:07:54 +0000 richardthue 41897@http://community.acdsee.com/forums/ <p>On ACDSee Pro 2,0 I get a blue mark on a top level category if a sub category is marked.&nbsp; This makes it easy to see if I have forgotten a category.&nbsp; I have a category tree with many subcategories and it works very well with ACDSee 2.0.&nbsp; I know I can find this in the Database pane of the Properties window, but it does not tell you where in the categorytree you have marked this picture.&nbsp; It is also very slow because you need to switch between "Organize-tab" and "Property-Database tab".</p> <p>One example.&nbsp; Every piture taken in year 2009 has a category 2009.&nbsp; This category is a sub category of category Year.&nbsp; With Pro 3 i must eiter open the Year category or switch tab to find out if I have made this picture a member of category 2009.&nbsp; In Pro 2.0 and 2.5 I get a blue flag on top level catergory Year.&nbsp; Much faster, more easy and I really hope this is possible in Pro 3.0.</p> <p>For mee this is a very important feature.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> http://community.acdsee.com/forums/topic/overview-of-database#post-41862 Thu, 10 Sep 2009 18:26:54 +0000 Marc Sabatella 41862@http://community.acdsee.com/forums/ <p>By "Tag", I assume you mean Category?&nbsp; You are correct the listing in the Organize window does not show if an image belongs to a currently hidden Category.&nbsp; But the Database pane of the Properties window will show a list of all the Categories a picture belongs to.</p> http://community.acdsee.com/forums/topic/pro-beta-features-now-closed#post-41748 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 17:19:19 +0000 Melanie Wood 41748@http://community.acdsee.com/forums/ <blockquote><p><cite><a href="#post-41653">mr robert said:</a></cite></p> <p>..........any opinions welcome&nbsp;</p> </blockquote> <p>I sorry Robert but I don't have an opinion on virtual boxes and as Heidi said, as a user to user forum, maybe to others&nbsp;don't have opinions either.&nbsp;Sometimes questions go unanswered.

So if my image was too blue, I might use a white point selection, then use strength to back off the reult if I thoght it was TOO warm.</p> <p>I often like the mix of ting and temp, but want it to be less of a change. I suppose I would achive better results if I learned to tweak just the temp and tint, but I think Strength allows you to simply back off your change toward the original WB.</p> <p>That's just how I see it.&nbsp; After writing that I checked the Help document at it sounds like that is how it's intended to be used:</p> <p>"Adjusting the slider to the right increases the white balance adjustment. Adjusting the slider to the left decreases the white balance adjustment."</p> http://community.acdsee.com/forums/topic/pro-beta-features-now-closed#post-40584 Fri, 14 Aug 2009 21:30:13 +0000 fonebone 40584@http://community.acdsee.com/forums/ <blockquote><p><cite><a href="#post-40363">Melanie Wood said:</a></cite></p> <p>To ensure this strong focus on stability and performance, there will be no additional features added before the final release.

The new Gui, for my liking, is great. The new workflow (somewhat similar to Lightroom or DXO Pro) is more intuitive, and the new fetures I have played with so far, are very good, most specially the Color Equalizar. Good work ACDSee!</p> <p>Ah! I almos forget about it. So far stability seems to be better than in 2.5, I haven had any crash or "ACDSee has detected an error and will now close". Let's hope this is really true and not just a dream ;-)</p> <p>There are minor issues I've seen that I will report separately.</p> <p>Miguel</p> http://community.acdsee.com/forums/topic/features-i-like#post-36232 Thu, 14 May 2009 05:36:56 +0000 danaross 36232@http://community.acdsee.com/forums/ <p>I love the live Histogram adjusting while I work with Curves.
