Re: [darktable-user] Best way to tag image from command line?

All this SQL magic makes sense only if the database actually stores those fields. Are you sure they're there? Wouldn't it be better to ask for new fields to be added, and then handled through the UI filter builder? What feature are you missing from the query builder itself? Because if none, then th

Re: [darktable-user] Rawtherapee seems to be sharper than Darktable, doesn't it?

The darktable image is darker. Perceived sharpness also depends on contrast. RawTherapee can apply a bunch of tricks (capture sharpening, dual demosaicing) that darktable cannot do (dual demosaicing is on the master branch, though). I see some CA in the darktable JPG that I don't see on the one fro

Re: [darktable-user] How to set opacity to 100% in retouch module

Shut down darktable. Open your config file (~/.config/darktable/darktablerc). Look for 'opacity' and 'density'. plugins/darkroom/masks/opacity=1.00 plugins/darkroom/masks/brush/density=1.00 plugins/darkroom/spots/brush_density=1.00 I think the last of those is what you're looking for; s

My issue (https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/issues/7655) occurred with images processed with an older version of darktable ('it was an issue related to new pipe order introduced in 3.0 and completely fixed in 3.2.1 by @TurboGit. Anyway, already affected XMP with multiple instances (so all

Re: [darktable-user] How to permanently remove highlight reconstruction from the default stack? (3.5)

Turn it off, save as a preset, set the preset to auto-apply. But maybe first try the 'recover in LCh' mode first, it works reasonably well. You can also save that as a preset if you like the results. darktable user mailing

Re: [darktable-user] Tone Equalizer, Mask

Tone EQ allows you to apply different exposure compensations to different parts of the image. You can achieve a similar effect by creating several instances of exposure, e.g. one without a mask, so set overall brightness; one with +1EV to lift the shadows, with a parametric mask; and one with -1 EV

Re: [darktable-user] How to permanently remove highlight reconstruction from the default stack? (3.5)

I think that it is possible that the module produces wrong results for you because your camera's white point is set wrong in darktable's source code. What camera do you use? Do you make use of 'extended ISO' modes or camera dynamic range management features? I have seen cases where such 'extended I

Which version of darktable, what camera, which workflow (display-referred , using the base curve, or scene-referred, using filmic -- see https://www.darktable.org/usermanual/en/preferences-settings/processing/)? If using the scene-referred workflow, Fuji cameras are known to require more exposure

Re: [darktable-user] Internal browser

RawTherapee and ART (and I think Photoflow also) work without importing. Filmulator imports images, just like darktable. If you don't want a database with darktable, it's doable: you can set the library to be in-memory (it'll start empty every time). You can simply open images with darktable name-o

When you develop your photos, if you use a dark darktable theme, they will appear brighter than when printed (or shown on a lighter background).
