Curvemeister's beta little bugs ?

[mikemeister_admin]

Mike,
I was busy with the horse on page 66 of the Color lab book.
I had set a neutral on the street.
also I had set the info on from the neutral.
You can set then the neutral on and off.
When I go for instance  for example to the A channel I can see the neutral.
When I select Reset this curve the neutral vanish from channel A.
that is correct.
But the info says the neutral is on. Indeed he is on in channel B, but not in A.
I must set the info selecting swich off  and on again to have the neutral back again in the A channel.
Is that correct or perhaps a little bug!

Yes - this can be thought of as a bug. 

Resetting a particular curve always sets it to a straight line, even if there is a neutral in effect.  Moving the neutral, or selecting the color space will re-establish the same neutral.

The reason I say "can be thought of as a bug" is that I can't think of a way to improve the behavior without making things more complicated.  If you, or anyone else reading this, has any thoughts, let me know.

Mike,

the best thing you can do, is tell it in the manual. Not that it is a sort of bug, but the way you must handle it.

Mike,

i have found a new bug.
I had found it yesterday, but I could not first redo it.
But now I know how I did it.
I  am still busy with the horse.
And I was repeating doing what is in the book on another way.
I make use of the pin grid lower left  on the same time in A and B.
then I use the slider to make the upper curve steeper.
suddenly the curve near the 127 mark goes walking.
This happened on both channels A and B.
Strange. I could correct that with the hand, but it is not mentioned so.

Again a bug !

When I was in Lab mode and the hue clock was in RGB- display, there is a error.
He gives the wrong measurements

This looks correct to me.

Red with a small amount of green added is orange, and dark orange is brown.

I am forgotten i have it about the brown color.
the RGB values must be R=129 G=96 B=82, but the clock said  R=50,6  G=37,6 and B=31,8.

ADDUM,
When you check it with others colors, the same error, wrong numbers!!
(The clock displays in RGB -mode, but you are in LAB-mode.)

This is actually a feature - click on the menu button on the hue clock that appears in the curve window, and you can set its options separately.

mike I have made a picture of all errors with this.
When I am in a mode for instance lab, you  can set the clock to another diplay.
That is very nice. But the values are not good.
ThaT I can set the clock display also to the mode, I knew this from the beginning.

See the picture speaks for himself.
