WOOOW, this is major. I have spend so much time trying to work out such photos. I am so happy to see this implemented. And all the small things that are "ease of life" are premium work. Great job, great job!

Super helpful - thanks! Really changed how I was looking at color aware - viewing it as three distinct ranges makes a lot of sense 😊

Hi Steve, great video but could you please make the mouse pointer bigger or put a colored dot behind it? Because you can't always see exactly where you are. I hope you understand what I mean? Thank you very much Regards from Germany Conny

@hueforging Ай бұрын

While you are the first person to request that, it makes a lot of sense anyway so I will do this in the future

@@hueforging 🤣 Yes, I'm probably the first woman of the world, maybe it's because of my age. But I also translate sometimes into German with text underneath and then I often have trouble keeping up because I can't see the pointer. It would be really nice if you could do that.😘

Is it possible to implement a feature in HueForge that automatically selects the closest preselected filament colors to match the original image colors as closely as possible? I'm curious about the technical feasibility and any reasons it might not be included.

@hueforging 7 ай бұрын

Well you can already right click on an image and have it sort the filament to the closest match. So it's easy to find a Filament that matches the image. But what you are asking is extremely complicated due to 1) The number of available Filaments, 2) they all blend differently based on TD, often 3 or 4 colors deep. 3) Stacking order matters not just for blending but also for how coherent the resulting image and how easily it prints.

I have an image with a lot of white (most of the background), and when it goes into the blue bin, it means I need a lot of white layers to remove the blue tint. Is there a way to avoid this? I was thinking about maybe a grayscale bin at the bottom (grey/blue/red/green) that pure grey/whites could go into (with some tolerance) before then the colour sections above. (Also, I'm curious why CA Presets are missing some combinations, for example having Green first)

@hueforging 5 ай бұрын

These are great questions and you are thinking about things the right way. For your first issue, the solution is a lower TD White to transition faster. Maybe as a second white, often just replace the one you have. The CA Presets are just convenience functions for features that had already existed in HueForge and we're commonly used. There isn't currently a way to arbitrarily order the colors and so no presets for those options that aren't yet supported. Arbitrary color order is on my feature roadmap

@DanTup 5 ай бұрын

@@hueforging Thanks for the reply! I don't think a lower TD white helps, because I do still want some good shades of blue/red, I just don't want any solid white to have to be at the top of those. I really think a greyscale bin in addition to RGB would be better (it would also support greys without any tints). My picture doesn't have any green, so for this one I could probably swap all the channels around and use green for greyscale (map it to black-to-white) and then just reorder them - however that's a bit of a faff and maybe some pictures will have all three colour channels as well as black/grey/white. Thank you for the great work!

You can use two white filaments, like the Double White video explains. Your regular white then the low TD white above that to hit saturation. But if you don't have green, does the Blue/Red preset not give you enough room in the blue bin to hit white? The problem with a separate Grayscale bin is that you end up with lots of tiny bins and edge effects visible in the final print.

@@hueforging > You can use two white filaments, like the Double White video explains. Your regular white then the low TD white above that to hit saturation That would get me to the white, but it still means my solid white is made up of all of the black, blue, high TD white and then low TD light. It's a lot of extra time (and filament) to get solid white that could've been at the bottom (for an image that was a white background, this is a fair bit of time/filament). > But if you don't have green, does the Blue/Red preset not give you enough room in the blue bin to hit white? I can certainly get to the white, the white just ends up being many more layers thick than I was hoping for. > The problem with a separate Grayscale bin is that you end up with lots of tiny bins and edge effects visible in the final print. Maybe for some prints it won't work well, but I feel like having the option would at least give more things to play around with to try and make an image work. Maybe part of this is inexperience on my part though - perhaps if I share the image with you you could make some suggestions (perhaps it'd make for an interesting video?). I don't think I can post links here (YT always seems to delete comments with links) but let me know if there's a way I can send to you (it's just a DALL-E generated image of Mario for my son).

What specifically are you lost on? Start simple, dark colors on the bottom, light colors at the top. Learn how the filaments blend and then move to more complicated stuff. Also check out NeoKoi prints videos they might make more sense to you?

@hueforging 4 ай бұрын

It's just a convenience it isn't required to use Color Aware. But if you really want to use it, make sure you have at least 9 sliders then close HueForge and open it up again.

@@hueforging I have read the instructions in the PDF and conducted tests, which turned out great! However, I have another question. Since the tests in the examples were conducted using black and white colors, can I simply replace white with other colors to test the TD values? For instance, black + orange or black + green?

What is the meaning of a coloraware filament? Can't you use your own filaments? I can't seem to get good results

@hueforging 6 ай бұрын

This is just premade sets to give you an idea of how to set them up on the sliders. You may absolutely use any filaments you want. But the idea of stacking them Black, Color, White, Black, Color, White, Black, Color, White is what the sets really try to get across.
