RT NOOB: Some functions dont work, like Sharpening and Graduated Filter

Hi everyone
I just finished the (fabulous) beginners tutorial by Radu, and as usual some things just doesn´t work on my Mac the way they did in the tutorial. Some functions like Exposure Comp and Contrast works fine as well as chosing White Balance Method and Temperature. But Detail>Sharpening and Graduated Filter and Vignette don´t make any differance to my image. I have tried several images (.RAF from Fujifilm X-T50). BTW, this camera is not on the list in Profiled Lens Correction. Neither is my lens or my DJI drone. I have checked that my version of RT is the latest 5.12.
Thanks for any help,
Christian

A couple of things to check:
1.Most tools have a power button just to the left of the title that allows you to turn the tool on or off. If its off you can still move the sliders but nothing will happen. It’s easy to overlook even when you are familiar with RawTherapee.
2. Some tools (such as sharpening) have a 1:1 sign to the right of the tool title. This means that adjustments made with the tool in question may only be visible at 100% zoom.

Ahhh, Wayne! That´s it! I have clicked the title, not the power button. Now everything works just fine. You made my day, THANKS!
