Apr 9 2026 APP 2.0.0-beta40 has been released !
It has a major performance boost of 30-50% over 2.0.0-beta39 from calibration to integration, for mosaics even faster! We extensively optimized many critical parts of APP. All has been tested to guarantee correct optimizations. Drizzle and image resampling is much faster for instance, those modules have been completely rewritten. Much less memory usage. LNC 2.0 will be released which works much better and faster than LNC in it's current state. Improved Outlier Rejection with LN 2.0 rejection. macOS CMD+A works now in file chooser ! And more, all will be added to the release notes in the coming hours...
Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual
We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.
Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.
Hi Mabula - here's a suggestion that I have. When previewing images in the image previewer, I think it would be very helpful if it retained the zoom settings when going from one image to the next. When I'm culling through my raw subs, I like to zoom in fairly tightly, often to each of the corners. If I zoom in to some point on one image, and then go to the next image, I want to retain that zoom level and position in the frame so that I can compare one sub to the other. Right now, when I go to the next sub, it shows me the full frame. As such, I don't see an easy way to blink from one sub to the next.
Thanks for considering this request.

Hi Scott,
If you deselect "scale" above the image viewer panel, it will retain the zoom and the scrollbar position while browsing throught the frames, just like you would like to do.
Let me know it this works for you.
Maybe "scale" isn't the best way to descibe the option? How would you call it? just "scale to fit" ?

Ah, perfect - that did the trick! If there's room, I think "Display Full Frame", "Display Full Image", or "Show Full Frame" is the least ambiguous. If any of those phrases were there, even a dummy like me would know what the checkbox did!
🙂
Thanks for your help,
Scott
Thank you Scott, I'll change it 😉
