I have not tried that brush yet Chris. After seeing your results I must give it a go. Looks to be a handy tool.
So for retrieving detail in the end wall did you use Highlight protection in Quick Fix or go another route. Don |

New(er S/H) box came this morning so expect more who knows what further improvements. Was dreading OS10.5, but it is the first OS since 10.2 where the interface has actually improved, whereas 10.4 was a trough of despond. Speed will allow me to set NX2 so the adjustments stay active when one backtracks. |

My machine is not up to Foxy's powerhouse , so I have not set active adjustments on a backtrack. Don |

2 features I hadn't noticed prior to faster box:
1: starting off with a small 'trial selection' using +brush (a bit like the flower in Nikon tutorials), you can then set the adjustment (or a series of linked adjustments) on the basis of the trial. You can then carry on brushing ad lib and/or check the extent of the mask using mask or overlay. Trying to add or subtract after choosing an adjustment was the surest way of crashing the programme before! You can also dab/undo/redo and use pressure settings. Never realised how accurately a PP 'brush' could replicate real one. Nice when choosing exactly how much/little of an image actually needs sharpening. (Don't tell me, all Photoshop users learnt this in the cradle). 2: used to think the temorary reset of individual panes within LCH was something that just didn't work - it does, toggles between before and after |

With both F & P the image can be moved with both scroll wheel (shift for L-R) or direction arrows. F also reverts with escape key and the near microscopic arrows at bottom useful for toggling between 2 or more pics for comparison. Getting rid of horrid scroll & header bars also actually increases size of the actual pic. Nice. Thanks for drawing my attention to it Don. Last edited by Chris; 30-07-08 at 13:24.

I have amended previous post as the occlusion of dock also extends to covering menus after invoking tools and pallete in P. Interested to see if that is the case with PC.

I do have the dock 'automatically show & hide' checked. But for clarity here is a dump of the worse effect on menus. It is in F mode for clarity, but after showing tool bar etc while in P mode. (no menu bar in P whatever you do, in fact not really a working environment at all IMO, just to see pic with black background)

I see, it not THE dock but a dock!
If the tool tile is left in its default position instead of the default position for NX(1) there is no issue, see screen grab.
