@@WheelchairKermit I'd love to see that🤣

I extruded a long the normals. This increases the edge thickness

Glad this was helpful! I have been planning this tutorial for a while. Also, if color blindness is a difficulty for you, check your histogram and RGB parade to help with verifying whether an issue has a red green shift.

Thanks so much!

@@filifilms the short answer is no. RT has the local adjustments tool which gives a circle or rectangle mask but you can't adjust those masks into the shape of a leaf. I just came out with a tutorial on the local adjustments tool here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hWO6aYiPmdhnmLMfeature=shared Usually I make my adjustments, export a PNG and then open the PNG in GIMP or Photoshop. If you want to mask something within a RAW editing software package, check out Darktable. That program has the ability to make custom masks and it's free just like Rawtherapee

@@donatzsky very true. This video was specific to the split toning tool but Darktable has so any great tools and myriad ways of achieving a specific look

@@fnlgorchinsky so glad it's helpful to you!

Yes this is a great question and I am glad you found the answer. I am going to write it out here just in case anyone else has that same question. To sort images by name, date, exif data, rank, or color label, right click in the file browser image window and go down to the sort files menu. Here you can choose any of the above mentioned properties as sorting criteria. You can also sort by these properties in ascending or descending order.

Glad this was helpful to you!

I am so glad it was helpful!

Glad it was helpful!

I agree. The learning curve on Rawtherapee is steep but the payoff is worth it!

I appreciate it!

Thanks for the encouragement

Glad they have been helpful. Is there a specific Darktable tutorial you have been looking for?

@@jacobswing Hello Sir. Vivid, saturated color using Darktable has been an issue. Split Toning has been a huge help, however, I am not getting a full range of intense color. Would appreciate a video on how to saturate individual colors. Also, how to get best results reducing noise using Darktable. Thank you so much for your expertise and tutorials. Greatly appreciated.

@@fnlgorchinsky Thanks so much for the input. I will put those tutorials in the queue

How long have you been using using RT?

@@jacobswing I literally just downloaded it and was looking up tutorials! haha

Well I am glad you found my channel. Thanks for stopping by. I am planning on releasing an updated beginner Rawtherapee course soon.

Thanks so much,

I'm so glad it was helpful!

Glad it worked for you!

Thanks for the encouragement. Glad it was helpful

@@jacobswing I'm trying to find a replacement for lightroom on desktop, and i'm just not getting the colors I want. I dont know what's going on. I picked up a used Olympus EM-1 and comparing it to my Ricoh GRIII . SOOC the GR is perfect (With enough light) and colors on EM1 are dull. My iPhone 11 looks better. I'm trying to start from scratch and build up from a standard profile to see where it goes sideways and how to get the colors I want. I shoot family and photos and I'm just looking for great skin tones from the GR but with some extra color pop that you get from film simulations.

I'll have to check into something to help with the mouse browser. Yes, to apply the processing profile to all photos, you would just need to select all photos and then select the processing profile. Its all about which photos are selected when you are apply edits while batch processing. I personally like to start with a neutral processing profile, edit that to my liking and then apply it across the rest of my photos from that shoot. But the standard RT tone curve and processing profiles are usually a pretty good place to start.

It depends. Vibrance is just saturation without skin tones. I find the best result is a mixture of both. But that's my personal opinion. Do you only use vibrance?

That is a possibility. My usual workflow is to open an image in RT, edit all the colors the way that I like, then open the image in GIMP and do any corrections (like hair or blemish removal), then any final color tweaks. If you do want to send an image back to RT make sure you save a lossless image (either a tiff without any compression or an EXR file) otherwise it doesn't make sense to open your image in RT again because the RAW data would be compressed and unusable. I hope that makes sense.

Thanks for the input. I have a few in the queue and they should be coming out in the next few weeks

Thanks for the encouragement. Yeah this stuff isn't super fun but can save a ton of time!

Thanks so much for the encouragement

Thanks for those! I appreciate the help/updates👍

The Lumix G85 is a great camera! When you turn on noise reduction, you need to be at the 1:1 zoom ratio (its a little button at the bottom of the image window). You then need to increase the the luminance slider in order to start adding noise reduction.

I appreciate the support! Do you have any areas in Rawtherapee that you want tutoriala on?

@@jacobswing I have now checked your previous RawTherapee videos on KZbin and It looks like the lab colour options are not tackled as of today. Although it is an advanced subject I deem it quite interesting 🙂 Needless to say, lab colour mode is available with most editing softwares (e.g Photoshop) but only partially implemented with GIMP

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll put it in the queue.

I appreciate the encouragement! Thanks a ton!

If you are getting blurring, you might need to increase the detail preservation. When noise reducing the picture will always be a little more blurry

Thanks for the encouragement. Do you have a specific open source app you are looking to learn?

@@jacobswing kdenlive and / or natron :)

Glad it helped and thanks for the encouragement!

This just means that after you select the setting and hit "ok" to close the settings dialogue box, you need to close rawtherapee and open it again to see the change that you indicated in the settings dialogue box.

Glad it helped! Thanks for letting me know

Thanks Paul. Much appreciated

Thanks is for that! I'll put those suggestions on the list!

And its so easy! Thanks for the comment
