Bonjour @jdc,
If you select “Dynamic Range Compr. & Exposure” and check “inverse”, RawTherapee_dev_5.8-2339-g8af287aa8_20200712_win64 crashes.
Bonjour @jdc,
If you select “Dynamic Range Compr. & Exposure” and check “inverse”, RawTherapee_dev_5.8-2339-g8af287aa8_20200712_win64 crashes.
Just tried it in Ubuntu 18.04 -same thing happens
Yes there was a bug…crash due to “Laplacian” not used in inverse…
I thik it is solved in branch “Local_ch”
Jacques
I just merge this change
jacques
Thank you, it works well and is very useful.
Thank you
I just push 2 commit for all the curves in “color and Light”
Now, you have “references” (hue, luma, chroma) draw in each curve. I think it will help

@heckflosse Will the changes affect the way the Edge Sharpness module in Wavelet Levels behaves and in particular this?
Wayne
I don’t think so
I think in all cases, its better…
Ingo replace a step pyramid, by a smooth pyramid…
The differences are small, but nevertheless it is better
Other thing
I found an old bug, in calculation H (LcH) use to hue reference to H (HSV) (uses by GUI curves), this differences leads to wrong values display…
I have fixed this (bad) behavior)
Jacques
@jdc,
The Dynamic Range Compr. & Exposure” with inverse problem is gone.
C’est parfait maintenant.
Thanks
Some questions about highlight recovery and local adjustments (among others)
Played around a few times with local adjustments and I think it’s really nice…
So local adjustments will be in the next stable release which will be released when? I am guessing it will be Version 6.0?
Since the last commit (130fbb8 - Aug 10, 2020) many improvements have been made by Ingo @heckflosse , Pierre @Pandagrapher and me, and with advice from team members

Is Spot the only type?
Like freehand curves and bruishes aren’t in the dev local lab build?
The idea behind the original commercial spot concept was to have a quick and easy way of doing local edits without having to use brushes, lassos, magic wands etc., to create selections . It is the same idea behind RT-Spots which use their own algorithms and offer more flexibility:
There is a description in Rawpedia under Local Adjustments (the translation is still work in progress). Local Adjustments - RawPedia
Hope that helps
It feels really over engineered and oddly different from all other tools out there.
I always end up going back to Lightroom or ART and using the Brush tool with soft edges, takes about 20 seconds on complex shapes and great for about 80% of situations.
Compare this to, trying to fiddle around with selection using “sliders” which assume there is something in common like color to filter on.
Hmmm… still think there should be a brush option like the ART fork.
The original U-Point concept as used in the the Nik Collection (c) was also quite different from the usual approach to local editing. However what suits one person may not suit another , which is why we are lucky to have so many options.
Personally I find RT-spots quick and easy for simple edits such as lifting the shadows on a face, adjusting skin tones, doing selective denoise and sharpening etc. etc.
The interface has three options: Basic, Standard and Advanced so it can be as simple or as comprehensive as you want.
I have been a big fan of the U-Point approach since I first used it in Capture NX2 (then in PS via nik), so if RT-spot is similar I am a happy camper.
