Alpha Chanel Problems
Alpha Chanel Problems
When creating an alpha chanel to perform edge sharpening in Photoshop, flattening the image, and saving as a tif, Neat Image will not open the flattened tif because of an alpha chanel error. This is rather disconcerting. Is this something that can be corrected in the next version? I can always perform my edge sharpening after noise reduction, but that is rather counterproductive. doc
Neat Image doesn't open tiff WITH alpha channel. If it doesn't open tiff without alpha channel, that may be a bug and we will surely fix it as soon as we are able to reproduce the issue on our computers. I will try to.
If your concern is caused by the fact that NI doesn't open tiff with alpha, then the best solution to this will be a new plugin version of NI, which will directly work with masked images in PS.

Plugin Release Date??
It appears the new plugin will resolve my problem. Any news on a release date?

Alpha Channel Problem
I could send you a small tiff file where I created an alpha channel for edge sharpening if you wish and email me with place to send the file.

Thank you, I just wanted to know what was the cause of the trouble. I know that NI doesn't open TIFFs with alpha channel, but I do not know whether it was the presence of the alpha channel in your TIFF that did not let NI open and process it. I thought there could be another problem with the TIFF data structures or something.
If it was just because of the alpha channel then it is ok (NI works according to specifications). If because of something else then we would have to take a deeper look to find a potential bug.
