Proposal for Raw Therapee Tutorial Site

For example, your tutorial at Enhancing local contrast vs. global contrast.

Duplicate the layer and desaturate it (copy this also into your channles stack for easy acces as mask). Invert the desaturated layer and set it to overlay mode. this will minimize global contrast (and also local contrast). Here is the result setting it to an opacity of around 50%.

Then you post the resulting jpeg file. The question is, if the corresponding pp3 file were available, would their be enough information in it to automatically generate the specific instructions of what to press? In this case, maybe not, maybe layers aren’t stored.

But here’s the part where it might work. On Enhancing local vs. global contrast - RT wavelets

We start with an image where all the basic settings have been done (exposure, sharpening, blablabla…)

Alas, that kind of stuff is what a beginner like me would like to see, and is a pain for an author like you to detail. So can we automatically generate what’s necessary to do the bla, bla, bla from a series of pp3 files? And if we can, is it worthwhile?
