you put dt in an untenable situation, then blame it for your failings to achieve what you say is possible with lr, but use a tool specifically built for lr to convert images to a secondary format, altering and/or destroying information from the original raw format that dt would use. then claim your previous work path has worked adequately for you for over 5 years, that the dng format is not the point of your discussion. your previous work path does not fit your present work path, using dt. so use the original raw image with dt, revert to your previous work path using lr and dng, or continue to complain that you cannot make apples resemble oranges. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode ____________________________________________________________________________ darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to [email protected]
