Something is WRONG with the 'Show Edits in Preview' function......

2006-07-29 by ed_limmy

Hi David,

That's the thing - my 'Show Edits in Preview' doesn't work like how 
you explained it. THat's why i was confused.

I have unchecked it and done used the adjustment sliders and the the 
effect shows up in soft proof. I also notice that even when I uncheck 
the preview function and press 'next' it rebuilds with the print 
preview dialog box occuring.

So its ignoring the uncheck box and going ahead to rebuild with the 
preview thereby affecting my softproofs.

I'm using the latest v1.1.1 downloaded about a week ago. should 
reinstall? 

ONce this is solved I should be on my way. 

After drying down the prints are colder (cyanish tinge) compared to 
the warmer/more yellow soft proof. OTher than that contrast/general 
colors are spot on. I'm very near to nirvana........

And yes, I'll try the smaller 256 patches next time. The 700+ patches 
seems to be quite error prone. I was lucky you were there to catch 
me. I swore i worked hard at hitting the right patches but i guess 
(sheepishly) that's what makes us humans....our mistakes.

ONce again - many thank-yous David. 

Looking forward to your feedback on the 'Show Edits in Preview' 
button. I think that'll complete me - it was a mental block i could 
not get around.

Regards,
Ed.
