Image Position PSE6 Question

[mikemeister_admin]

I have a wide screen monitor. When I open a image I want the image to be at max size (fit screen) and the curves to be as large as possible without covering the image.  In the attached screen shot the image is biased to the right and partially covered by the curves. If I removed the pin table there would be more area for the image if it could be biased to the left. In PSE6 is there any way to adjust the image position?

Hi Joe,

Drag the curves a bit to the right and they will dock to the right edge, and the image will center itself correctly in the remaining space.

If you've already tried this, let me know.  There are a lot of options available.

Mike, the right margin of the curves block is bumped up against the clock and the selection tools on the right bottom. The left margin can be made smaller by moving it to the right. But that makes the curve block smaller! I moved the entire curves block across the top but that's not what I want. Is there somehow I can leave the curves block as is and move the image to the left (easily)? If not I wont worry about it.

I meant dragging the banner of the curves to the right to make it "dock" with the right edge of Curvemeister's main window.  If you've tried this and it's not satisfactory, another thing to try would be to resize the main window so that it does not overlap under the curve window.

Mike, I'm not sure what you mean but when I move the curvemeister curves and clock to the right enough to clear the image the clock and color space selection disappears. If you notice to the left side there is a big grey void. That is where I would like to relocate the image.

What happens when I open Curvemeister the image jumps to the right and down quite a bit.
Again this is not all that important. It just would be nice if easily done.

Thanks Joe S

PS  How come Curvemeister is not in the dictionary?

There's a trick to dragging and docking the curves to the edge of the main window.  When you drag onto the "sweet spot" next to the right edge of the main window, and in the gray area (not on top of the ribbon), a transparent blue area will light up, and when you release the mouse button the curves will attach themselves to the edge of the window.  After this happens, curvemeister will center the image in the remaining gray area, filling the void you are mentioning.

I do the docking for both the pin palette and the curves in the video from the second week:

There is a problem with the initial scroll position when curvemeister is first started.  I've added it to the list of things to fix when I have a chance to work on the software.

Before choosing the name curvemeister, I did a web search and found only two hits.  One was for a biography of a baseball pitcher, and the other was a blog for a motorcycle rider.  The latter was apparently as good at taking the curves as the former was at dishing them out.

Mike, I minimized the pins and just clicked a few times on the curves header bar and each time I clicked the image moved to the left. Now when I open a image and Curvemeister the image fills up the grey space to the left just as I wanted.
