Hello Catherine,

I hope you're doing well. I wanted to follow up on an issue regarding my Helicon Focus license. I purchased a one-year license, but unfortunately, I have been unable to use the software for most of this time.

Is there any chance this feature will be implemented soon? Alternatively ...

Hello, because almost 4 month have passed I wanted to ask when it might be implemented? What might be the time frame?
Thanks and best, Michael

Thanks for your reply, Catherine.

It is not the case that I use different lighting in one stack. What you see in the gif are already stacks from the same perspective, with each of them just one lighting setup. The animation shows the outputs of these stacks, but Helicon uses different alignments ...

Hello,

is there a way maybe in command line that i can save/store the alignment of the single images of a stack to several other stacks?
It is crucial that several stacks with just different lighting positions/color have the exact same alignment, because after stacking they need to be averaged ...

Thank you for your prompt action!

There is currently no way to do it in batch mode, but you can with command line mode

Hi Catherine,

thanks for your prompt reply. I will try command line mode. Comm mode should be the best solution in general.

Cheers ...

Hello,
Same request here. This would be a crucial feature for using Helicon Focus in a more professional way.
It would also be necessary to somehow automate the use of this feature (use same alignments for the next "x" (in my case 7) stacks. Then the next stack should be rendered from the first ...

Hello,
yes, a depth map export in batch mode would also be necessary for me and my work with hundreds an thousands of stacks.
It there a way to do it?
Best,
Michael

Hello,
it is very annoying but sometimes I cannot post because my ip has been blocked because spamhouse has listed it, which it just not true.
So I changed my ip via my university´s VPN. Still it was blocked although spamhouse says it is ok.
Please see screenshots

The problem is, each time I change ...

Hello,
I shoot photos where the cam is always in the same position (except for the stacking/focusing movement), but the lights are flashing up from different angles at each stack position and I record one image per single light. I have 8 lights.
After stacking when I import all images as layers in ...

Hello Michael,

There may be a practical limit of how many stacks can be processed in one session based on the amount of RAM, but 2000 sounds way too low for 128 GB. We're also unfamiliar with the black stripe issue, there are certainly no intentional limits of this kind. We will investigate both ...

Hello,

I have a project where I need to render 10800 stacks (each 34 Images). I found out that Helicon Focus uses massive amounts of RAM for such a project, so it is not possible to load more than 2000 stacks at a time with 128GB of RAM which was my first problem. The second was that after 500 ...
