Hello,

has anyone of you figured out how this works? No matter what I have tried so far the colors do not look right.

mosaci03 panel01 sc01

Which looks decent to me is "balance RGB" with green/magenta slider to the left. 

any basic workflow on star colors?

Hi Elgol,

First of all, the Balance RGB calibration mode, is very simple and inflexible. So the adjustments are little when you try to calibrate the data.

Secondly, I would recommend to select bigger areas so the star population becomes better, as a start, just select the entire image with 1 area select box in this case.

I will make a video on how to use the tool soon, the end of year has proven to be very busy for Aries Productions so I hope you can bear with me a little while longer ?

Better instructions will come.

Mabula

Bit off more than you could chew did you? Just kidding, you have a very good product and I have a feeling this year will be very good for Aries Productions. I'm kind of a geek and I've used a lot of software and for its ease of use and Power APP is hands-down the best standalone stacking / pre-processing software I have used for astrophotography. One of its charms is the small learning curve to get your first integration. And it is so nice that it doesn't stop there the adjustments available or extremely useful. After exporting final image all I really have to do is a little bit of Light Room.

Hi Mabula,

 

I agree with Greg! Even though the path is not easy that thread I posted on Dpreview caused some new customers I am sure! 

So I can still wait another week or so.
