Hi,

 

Why is it now impossible to get less than 10% stretch on image??    The stretch slider has been changed lately and it is impossible to have less than 10% stretch on images.   It also impossible to save custom stretches.   This is a big blow.   I would have expected more options for stretching as new releases are coming out, not less.

Hi @tempusfugitxxii,

Nothing was changed in the preview filter regarding stretching options in the last couple of releases. We never provided the option to stretch less than 10%, really.

But you can always simply use the lowest stretch preset of 10% and then reduce further with the ST(retch) slider where you need to increase the ST value to reduce the stretch.

After the 2.0 stable release, the preview fitler will completely be updated/redesigned to make this all much simpler 😉 that is on our development path for sure.

Something was changed recently.   See picture 1 and 2 below.   The ST slider can be moved to the right to reduce the 10% stretch. That's Beta 12 version.

10% stretch
Lower than 10% with the slider

With the latest version,  the ST slider is all the way to the right once the automatic 10% stretch has been applied. There is no way to lower the stretch from 10% by pushing the ST slider further to the right. See picture below. 

St slider all the way to the right

The question I have is when has this change been implemented?   I will downgrade to the prior version.

Dear @tempusfugitxxii,

Thank you very much for the screenshots. I already know what is happening. Nothing is changed in APP with regard to stretching here. The image where ST:65535 indicates simply that 10% stretch is already achieved now without actually stretching. This must mean that you have loaded an already stretched image into the preview filter which does not need more stretching if you set it to 10% BG. Please double check if you are trying to stretch a linear image or an already stretched one ;-). You can check this by setting the stretch preset to "no stretch (data as is)". My guess is that the image you tried to stretch in beta 22/23  will look almost identical without actually stretching ?
