Test RawTherapee 5.6-rc1

Thanks @paulmiller for your test. In this latest patched build the font proportion has been changed. A sans font size 12 should result in normal size icons. If you can, give it a try.

OK, I launched the new version (gace5a0113-patchB), set the font size to 12pt (which made the text huge as before), and then relaunched it. The resulting editor window is this:

The debug output is:

GDK_SCALE is 1
Resolution / Before: 72.000
Resolution / After : 72.000
"Non-Default" font size(12) * scale(1) / fontScale(1.000)
CSS:
* { font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12pt}

>>> RTScalable::init start
setDPInScale(72.000, 2) -> DPI: 144.000, Scale: 2
<<< RTScalable::init end

@paulmiller off-topic, if you own a color target, RT could use your help. We have a DCP for the Canon PowerShot G7 X but not for the G7 X Mark II. You could help by sending raw photos of the color target in daylight + incandescent tungsten light to me. By sending them, you confirm that you are the author of the photos and you are putting them into the public domain. Shooting guide here:

@paulmiller Thanks for the test.

… & all : The HiDPI support is in fact a tweak, the same kind that DT uses, i.e. it force a GDK_SCALE to 1 and manually handle the 2x resize. It works well for Linux and Windows, but not for MacOS it seem. So until we update our HiDPI support, MacOS users who wants to have sharp icons will need to avoid HiDPI resolution as shown here (but does this panel still exisit?) or here (the one with the thunder symbol should be avoided).

@Morgan_Hardwood asked for making this pseudo-HiDPI support optional, which can be done in the Preferences/General panel of the latest dev version (included in future RT5.6rc2). Of course, your icons and preview image will be blurry, like for RT5.5.

In your screenshot the slider is dark grey

but should be blue

Is there an issue with the TWB theme or did you modify the theme?

@paulmiller given the info @Hombre just posted, here is the latest dev build for testing,
https://kd6kxr.keybase.pub/RawTherapee_OSX_10.9_64_5.5-306-g7d33fc40c.zip

I accidentally changed the theme to “TooWaGrey” by scrolling while my mouse was over the theme popup (easily done if you’re used to the behaviour of Cocoa controls). The sliders are blue in the default RawTherapee theme.

@HIRAM:
I’m getting a “not found” when I try that link…

@Morgan_Hardwood:
I don’t actually own a ColorChecker target, but I may be able to borrow one. I could send you the shot I already have, but it isn’t under controlled lighting conditions and it is somewhat underexposed…

@paulmiller I can wait for the proper shots.

Adding tools to “favorites” tab removes them from their usual places. It is not convinient. Can it be modified ? Adding tools to “favorites” tab must leave them intact on their usual places imho.

Try this:

@viv not for 5.6. You can discuss that here: RawTherapee 5.6 will get a Favorites Tab but no GUI to configure it

@HIRAM, @Hombre:

Here are the results for g7d33fc40:

With Pseudo-HiDPI mode off:

With Pseudo-HiDPI mode on:

I think it looks better with Pseudo-HiDPI mode off, the graphics are not any less sharp, and the UI is the right size.

Thanks for responding.

I have attached a RAW file from the Fuji X-T2
The DCP of this file appears only as Camera Standard in Camera Colour Management of the RT Appimage
However, the sensor in this camera is identical to the sensor in the Fuji x-Pro2 and X-T20
Perhaps the DCP from one of these could simply be copied, appropriately renamed and added to a future version of the Appimage.

Also in the TooWaGrey theme the sliders should be blue. So there is a problem with the TooWa… themes on the Mac. It looks like the Mac can not handle gradients.

I also have non-blue sliders in the TooWa* themes on mac.

Can you prove this?
And prove that the electronics which translate the captured data perform identically.

You’ve made a very valid point which had escaped me.
My original suggestion could indeed produce unwanted effects on X-T2 Raw files.

Thank you again for picking this up.

@Fujiman don’t get me wrong, I’m genuinely eager to have it proved so that RT can improve color rendering of the FUJIFILM X-T2, but I need more than someone saying so in a forum, and I don’t have the time to dig into this on my own, so hopefully someone can point out a solid reference, or just supply D65+stdA shots.

According to Wikipedia They have the same sensor.
