Re: QTRgui and windows 10

2016-10-19 by brian_downunda@...

As a long time Windows XP & 7 QTR user, and someone who will have to upgrade to W10 sooner or later (I've already reserved my digital entitlement), I'm not that concerned. As an investment it's only fifty bucks, and a lot cheaper than say Imageprint. There are relatively minor inconveniences for a 10-ink printer on W10, but the fact is that Windows upgrades haven't ever broken the basic functionality of QTR. Once you've got your curves set up, you just print. I can still use Measure Tool in W10!

I don't wish to start a Mac-PC war, but seriously, I'd be more concerned if I was on a Mac. OS X upgrades have broken things. Colour management was broken back in 10.6.8 IIRC, which is why Print Tool is needed, and a recent OS X upgrade (El Capitan?) broke QTR for new installs until Roy released a fix. OS X may be more convenient now, but were Roy to be hit by the proverbial bus (heaven forbid), and another such break to occur ...
