Helicon Soft Forum

I really like Helicon v5x for PC (I'm using 5.3.14), however I'm gradually switching over to mac and was wondering if there is a version for OSX? The features that I specifically like (which don't seem to be present in v6x or v4x) is 1) the image browser, 2) the ability to right click and reveal the unstacked image which is selected after stacking, and 3) the ability to have the save dialog box default to the location of the source images.

Thanks in advance,
Chad

Sorry, version 5 was Windows only, but we would be happy to implement useful features in version 6.

Current version should remember saving to source folder. As to point 2, it is not clear what you mean, please elaborate.

In version 5x for windows, run the stacking on a series of images to create a stacked image. You'll end up in the "parameters" tab. Select one of the source images on the right side, then right click on the stacked image in the lower image panel. If you hold down the right mouse button the source image that you selected on the right will be revealed. When you release the right button, then the stacked images comes back. This is an incredibly handy feature for verifying the quality of the stack and isolating problem areas. This feature alone has caused me to keep a windows machine around for the main purpose of image stacking.

Thanks!

Thanks, we added this feature in to-do list for future versions!
