[comp.sys.mac.apps] Digital Darkroom Wierdness

larsen@mist.cs.orst.edu (Scott Larsen) (06/12/90)

I am using Digital Darkroom v1.1 from Silicon Beach Software on a
Mac IIfx, but am having problems looking at the images.  It seems that
somewhere, Digital Darkroom alters the graymaps or something like that.
If I take the scanned image an view it with a public domain program called
image, i looks fine.   But with DD, it just looks WIERD!  The image is
there, and for the most part, looks ok, but there are little "contour
line" in some areas.

The program will do all the operations on the file fine, and generates
great output, but viewing it is reallt impossible.

Has anyone ever used this program, or have any advice for me?

Thanx.

       Are you by any chance using the 32-bit QuickDraw INIT ?
       I have noticed this same type of behavior until I took
       it out and rebooted.
