Re: Helicon Focus 9.0.2
The request to add an option in the substack-function to render the substacks with another method / another setting is on your "to do"?
Yes
Can you provide a timeline when (if ?) this feature might be implemented?
Rendering substacks in 9.0.3 works flawless, but still there is no option to ...

Re: Helicon Focus 9.0.1
Thanks for the quick answers, Catherine!
I did some more tests with version 9, of importance might be the specifics of my system:
Mac M1 desktop, 16GB
non-Apple two-button mouse
Mac OS Tahoe 26.4
With regards to performance-improvements:
I did the same stack of 139images in JPEG with version 8.3.10 ...

Re: Helicon Focus 9.0.1 - issues ...
First - congrats to this new version of Helicon and Happy Easter!
It seems to be much faster than the 8.x with method B... still testing, but so far:
stack with 139 images: 1min in 8.3.10, 17secs in 9.0.1, method B on Mac M1 = 3 times faster
BUT - a stack with 90images and with method C: 12 secs in ...

feature request: adding a 'real' scale to show FOV of image
Hello,
for some use cases like minerals adding a scale helps a lot to understand how large (or small) a crystal is.
Currently the "Text/Scale" function in Helicon only adds a scale with no real measurement (scale width only determined by percentage of image x-size).
Idea is, to have a scale that ...

Re: Blurring around complex shapes
oh f*** .... admittingly it took me some minutes to "adjust" my brain and finally - now I got it.
Thanks Catherine!
I was heavily focused on the distance between the sharp area and the lens which stays the same during the stacking.
And the point i missed (or ignored) was that indeed the whole ...

Re: Blurring around complex shapes
Hello Phil,
I might miss a a point but I think this is a wrong assumption:
"Paraphrasing what I wrote in 2022:
As you move the lens closer to the object -- as when you focus on a near point -- the magnification increases. As you move the lens away from the object towards the sensor -- as when you ...
