@betazoid by reading the comments, I strongly recommend that you upgrade your version, since they imply that this seems to be a bug that has been fixed.
Like I said before, if I were you, I would change the strategy by automatically upgrading from obs packages, as described here.
In my case, I chose “Snapshots from the master branch”, which I believe gives me the stablest unstable versions
After that, it’s just a matter of doing sudo update / sudo upgrade on a daily basis, and you’ll be up-to-date.
I believe this also suits you since you’re on MX Linux (it is a branch from Ubuntu, right?)
EDIT: This open->close bug thing have already happened to me, and I felt a bit chocked at first (I felt like I lost my time). But better thinking, it means that they are tightly controlling things (and at a fast pace), which means that we’re getting fixes fast enough.
EDIT 2: When they say you must redo the edit from a clean image, they mean you must do that from the latest version.
no, that is not the problem. apparently, dt 2.7 always produces this margin when I activate denoise profiled chroma and edit a raw from my olympus e-m10
Sorry, I’m still not sure about that. I don’t know what release is that.
The version from your screenshot doesn’t show among the latest commits (see my previous screenshot, the one from the commits page. As I understand, those are master’s latest versions)
EDIT: my line of thought is: before concluding for a bug, we must be sure that we’re running the latest version. Talking about a bug from older versions doesn’t make sense because it could have been fixed on later versions.
@betazoid: you are also making me furious then
"So, as you can see, darktable 2.7 produced a strange light margin on the right edge. "
And many people can’t reproduce. So that’s certainly a configuration issue, computer, graphic card, opencl or not, driver, full history of changes (modules used)… But as in many case people create report as if there was an universal issue!!! How many people will use dt if exporting was producing a “right margin” on all images when denoising was used?
So, we do our best to understand and fix issues, but we also do expect people reporting issue to give a proper context. We cannot guess or read in crystal balls. Thanks.
I do not want to make anybody furious but… I have the feeling that I am not taken seriously. Unfortunately I only have 1 computer so I cannot test on other systems.
I am not a computer scientist/programmer but I am doing my best to help.
Thank you for that. We all need to be patient. Bugs are hard to reproduce, and while its frustrating to have encountered one, the perseverance to accurately report and then resolve it will benefit us all.
