Dumb question that I should (and probably did) know...

Software darktable

I’ve been primarily using ART for more than a year, but I still dabble in dt / RT from time to time and this simple <whatever> is eluding my recollection.

Every image I open in the darkroom is too bright due to the default exposure module settings:

I’m using a custom preset to populate my favorites tab with specific modules. However, IIRC (a big IF) that just determines which modules are visible, not their default settings (right?). I’ve done nothing else AFAIK: no styles, etc.

I want to disable compensate camera exposure (and / or set the default exposure to 0.00) then have it apply by default.

How do I do that? What have I forgotten? An aging brain is a terrible thing! LOL :slight_smile:

Thanks…

You want to make a style with exposure set to zero and ally that style to every photo.

Well, of course. :slight_smile: Wonder why I couldn’t remember that?

Thanks…

If you create a preset and have it auto-apply to all new edits, you’ll never have to think about it again (with a style you need to manually apply it to your images).
