Wish list in next version: Curves. It's Missing.

Hello,
I purchased Aperture and like many attributes of the software. Great job! I would like to see Curves in the next version. I know I can go to adjust in Curves in Photoshop, but that will covert the RAW image into a .tif or .psd which takes up more space. Why not just have Curves in Aperture?
Great job with Highlight recovery and shadow recovery. Especially Highlight recovery which gives a pleasing feel of tone to an image that just clipped the highlight detail! Didn't get that pleasing subtle tone in Lightroom.

I never cared for the Curves UI in PS. I'm also not thrilled with the Levels UI in Aperture. You can certainly get good work done with both styles but for me, and this is subjective, neither is a particularly elegant solution.
I'll preface this next statement with the fact that I own Aperture, and I DON'T own Adobe's Lightroom. I've recently had the opportunity to play a bit with LR, and the Tone Curve UI (Curves/Levels) is a joy to use. It's very intuitive, powerful and there are a number of ways to make your adjustments. The UI just gets out of your way, and you can focus in on the results. It is, IMO, a superb tool for refining tones in an image. I would love to see Aperture develop an interface for Levels that was more like the Tone Curves interface in LR.

Message to RIM - wish list for next version

Hi
Just some thoughts based on a couple of days of use of a playbook that my IT folks lent me.
Firstly, hopefully RIM will realize that the only way this will take off is if Enterprise users really buy into it but the device lacks in certain areas if it is to be a WorkBook instead of a PlayBook (which other tablets do a better job at) as follows:
- no way to adjust font size or zoom in the Messages in the BlackBerry bridge - if the higher ups in corporate can't read their messages, they won't buy.
- even though typing e-mails show you spelling errors w a red underline - there is no way to correct, while in your BBerry, you can call up spelling correction options. (The same for the other bridge apps, like memos etc, as well).
- very difficult to edit messages, the touch screen is not sensitive enough so its difficult to place the cursor to exactly to the point you need it in text you have already typed. Suggest an optical track ball (similar to the ones in the 9700s) or a stylus be incorporated into the next version.
- even if you are able to get the cursor to the spot you want it in a draft e-mail/memos you can't highlight to cut or copy text to other parts of the e-mail/memo draft.
- can't view attachments that are part of the calendar entries - but you can on the BBerry itself.
Think that's it after 2 days of using. Needless to say, am disappointed as the PlayBook doesn't increase productivity and is lacking in key areas that are part of what makes BBerry a strong product. I wouldn't buy with my personal funds and think the corporate will not roll out as aggressively as it could the cost/benefit is currently not there.
Let's see what future software/hardware upgrades bring.
Cheers to all.

Hi 8400Help, I had compiled a list of suggestions in an earlier thread please check it out here: http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-PlayBook/Future-Things-We-Want-Rim-To-Fix-On-The-P...

Wish list for next iPod software update

I don't know if this the right place or not, I was unable to find a better place for this.
Wish list for next iPod 5G software update
1.) Use the same folder structure as in iTunes (could be an option)
2.) Allow creation of custom eq settings in iTunes.
That's all for now. Thank you Apple for a great product.
Roy Owen
A Happy iPod 80GB owner.

What the next update needs is a better way for ipods to deal with gapless albums, I have several albums that I put on gapless album cuz each track leads into the next one perfectly and that little pause really throws off the feel of the music. But I can't put either of those albums on Repeat All, Shuffle Songs or Shuffle Albums cuz then it only plays the one song in it's own playlist and to get to the next track I have to go back to the menu and scroll down to the next one, which is a hassle to say the least.

Nokia 5230 - Wish List for Next Firmware Upgrade

heya guys,
I'm using Nokia 5230 with the latest firmware, V 12.0.089.
The following are my wish list for the next firmware upgrade:-
1. Messaging > Sent Items: Please include short cut icons to Forward, Create New and Delete as in Inbox.
2. Log > Recent calls: Unnecessary option for Call > Voice Call.
3. Settings > Personal > Themes > Call image > Theme image: A bug with certain 3rd party theme (e.g. JustBlack - 5th theme). During lock mode, screen is totally blank during calls & alarms.
4. Settings > Application mgr. > Installed apps.: Too much application will cause an error of "Application Manager Memory full" and auto exit when selecting "Option". During error, phone memory is around 25MB, Memory Card is around 2.5GB/4GB.
5. Ovi Map > Drive / Walk > Set Destination: Please do an icon based UI for History, Favourite, Search & From Map. The list is to small to click on to (when driving) :-)
6. Organize > Please include multiple selections. E.g. Mark/Unmark > Mark / Mark All. Easy to move multiple applications at once to any folder.
That's all for now i guess. By the way, Nokia rocks!!
Thanks in advanced.

Please integrate swype for messaging in the next firmware of 5230. Also kinetic scrolling for messages and contacts. If possible the homescreen of symbian^3.

URL for reporting BUGS in iWeb. URL for reporting a WISH LIST for next iWeb

1
Can someone please send the URL for the page in which one can report bugs in iWeb?
2
Same thing for simple old Wishes and Hopes for the next iWeb if they are not one and the same URL/page.
Thank you.
Lorna in Southern California

Lorna....
All is well....actually doing a little jet-setting
over here and there...you can check the updates on my
website....thanks for your email...
Regarding the feedback to Apple....if you ever forget
the website, you can always look under the iWeb menu
while you are working (that's when you run into these
bugs anyways) and pick "Send Feedback to Apple".
That'll send you to the same webpage for feedback
submission!
Hi James I'm glad that you are ok. And thank you for the hint about the bug reports on iWeb menu. It makes a lot of sense putting it there; I just never noticed it.
iWeb has a bad blog bug
I'd like to stomp it royally
Instead I'll send a feedback hug

Logic wish list for next release

Cosmetics may not be important for some but for the rest of us it is.
When I work with PT9 or DP7 I am amazed how beautiful they look. It makes it so easy and pleasing to work with them. BUT I like Logic Pro better for everything else so APPLE if you read this MAKE LOGIC PRO WITH THEMES (COLORS CHOICES) OR SPECTRUM CHOICES AS IN PT9 and DP7 . IT MAKE LIFE BETTER WHEN YOU WORK 10 -12 HOURS A DAY ON PROJECT.
The Dark gray color In Logic is nice but boring. Other competitor are cathing with a pleasing environment.
DP7 is a wonder and EM choices of DAW for 2010 Cosmetics are important to.
Thanks:-)
ED

meh ... color themes I can live without.
here's something I've been wishing more and more for though:
* bounce by markers
Say you've got a whole show tracked. You run through and you set markers on each of the songs. Maybe you run through again and set some automation while you're mixing etc.
Now you just need to bounce each song out and set the ID3 tags etc.
What'd be super nice would be a bounce by markers button that just starts at the beginning of the project and bounces each marked section and labels it with a track number and the title of the marker.
I also vote for "flex pitch" ... that's highly marketable and good to have.
And also Mainstage as a software intstument in logic would be AWESOME.

Premiere Pro wish list from CC 2014.2 (Feel free to complete !)

After a lot of projects in Pr since the CS6 version, here are my wish list for next updates. Feel free to complete it !
NEW FUNCTIONS FOR PR
Copy / Paste audio track FX (audio track mix view)
Ability to rearrange order of audio track FX
Missing plugin information : when a plugin or an FX is missing to open a project, it's impossible to know which clip is concerned and where to find it.
Ability to search and effect : I'd like to have the ability to search all the clips that are using "warp stabiliser" for example in my timeline / project.
Ability to remove 1 type of FX in a selection of clips. Actually we can only remove all the FX or not
Ability to temporary disable all FX / transformations on timeline / specified track. Like AE with his "fx" button on layer.
Change the standard label color names with STANDARD names (red, green, yellow). I know it's possible to do it but please do it by default.
Ability to change the color background of the source / program monitor to something not black. When a black or near black video is played, we can't simply find the border of this video.
NEW FUNCTIONS FOR MEDIA ENCODER
Ability to add text in the file name in regard of the encoding format. If I encode a timeline named "FILM" in my H.264 preset I'd like AME to automatically name the file "FILM_H264_1080p25" or whatever.
BUG FIX
Fix the timecode bug on frame holds. When frame hold is applied to a clip, the timecode displayed (program overlay) continues running. Worse : if this frame hold is trimmed from the beginning or the end, the time code shift... Making a conformation impossible !!
Fix the speed effect on clip. When a 400% speed effect is applied to a clip, it sometimes do 399.xx % speed effects. It's confirmed by precomp to an AE comp. AE is also showing a wrong value...
Lumetri FX is dissapering when a clip is precomp to an AE comp from Pr.
Missing font warning : when a font is missing, Pr does not tell which clip is concerned and simply replace with another font !

Those are all great suggestions. Here's my list.
FR: Instant AutoSave
FR: Project Specific Cache
FR: Proper Timewarp
FR: Background Rendering
FR: Global Templates for Titles
FR: Multiple Bin Views
FR: More Useful Properties
FR: Reference Monitor Live Update
FR: JPEG 2000 Preview Format

Next Thinkstation wish list

Hi folks,
Lenovo is pretty innovative stuff, I think we can all agree
As the Thinkpad is "inspired by customers", let's see if we could try and inspire Lenovo's system builders for the next generation of Thinkstation's to come, no doubt pretty soon given Intel has already come out with the Xeon E7 and has published their roadmap for the upcoming Xeon E5 which is expected later this year.
Ok, I'll try and start it off with what base configuration I would like available in at least one upcoming model.
====== Wish List ======
- Dual E5's; Romley-EP / Romley-WS; Sandy Bridge-EP/LGA2011;Socket R
- USB 3.0
- Far wider choice of Lenovo approved graphics cards, i.e. place just as much importance on "desktop" graphics cards as "workstation" cards.
- Scale down pr/selling importance of "ISV certified", or "certify for ISV's" after initial release(s) of systems...
- Wide range of SLI and Crossfire options
- System designed straight from the factory to accommodate wide range of third party air or watercooling and fans for the cpu's, chipset, ram and video cards (i.e. boards pre-drilled to accommodate easy cpu watercooling backplates...)
-PCI 3.0 already comes with the chipset, so we're ok already with this
- Minimum of 3 PCI slots free
- Built in GPS tracking chip and not just software like Lojack- if workstation is stolen, it can be found.
- Edit -
Adding
- UEFI, or Utensible Firmware Interface in lieu of BIOS
- Far faster POSTing
I think that's a fair start - correct me if I am wrong, and feel free to add your ideas!
Let's see how much Lenovo really listens

Erik's making a good point....these are workstations first and foremost, and not converted gaming systems. I can comment on some of these...
USB 3.0 - couldn't agree more, however Intel is not making this easy. They'd much rather push their own lightpeak technology, but the industry isn't going to ignore USB3.
GFX - Don't really see us going after desktop cards. GFX is the single biggest differentiator between desktop class systems and workstations. Also, we have to be selective about which cards and how many cards we try to qualify. Each additional card drives a LOT of work on our side, and this can quickly become very expensive.
ISVs - what you stated just won't happen. ISV certs really drive workstations. If anything, we'd like to concentrate even more on ISVs, but resources are always limited.
SLI - this is actually a VERY tiny portion of our current business. No reason not to expect SLI to continue though since it's supported on current platforms.
Cooling - Most people take our cooling solutions for granted. Given they aren't always the most sexy looking approach, it generally is very effective. We generally beat our competitors with lower acoustics, and the thermal solutions are directly responsible for that. In an area where cost is king, what you're describing adds a lot of cost to every base system and it would only be used by less than 1% of our customers. Not to say we ignore this area, but most ideas generally get killed quickly due to cost concerns.
PCI - industry is moving away from PCI, so I wouldn't expect an increase in the number of PCI slots.
GPS - we've actually looked at some stuff like this before, but the reality is the chances of somebody walking off with a 60lb workstation are somewhat slim. I actually went after a patent for something along these lines with workstation security and it got quite the chuckle from the patent review board.
RAID - we are exploring lots of new options with RAID support. Obviously can't get into details, but based on other comments I've seen in the forums, I think we'll be able to make more of our customers (both budget and power users) happy.
This is a great thread topic. Obviously we'd love to see any and all ideas or suggestions. We can't accomodate everything, but it's always good to get the creative juices flowing.

MSI Next Generation Intel Platform Wish List of Features

Hello,
Please share your wish list of features which you would like to see in a next generation of MSI Intel Platform.
Also what kind of BIOS options/features you wish to be included. (for example: OCing BIOS options, some other specific BIOS options)
Thanks

Quote from: AaronYuri on 10-January-08, 02:15:48
Well the "performance level" memory setting would be a good addition. It isn't on any known mainboard to date. It's changed via MemSet however:
It's available on an other brand engineering sample that I've recently benched with (cannot tell which one, sorry). Anyway, I second your suggestion. PL is individually hard-coded for both memory channels (FED14249h for CH1 & FED14649h for CH2) and should be very easy to add in the bios. It can be individually available for each channel...
Another MCHBAR timing that could be nice to add is the one located at FED1403Fh. It was strap related on P965 chipset, but looks divider related on P35. This timing isn't available for tuning in anyway (bios or app.) but for instance can boost nicely the memory read bandwidth (by about 100MB/s) if sets to the proper value. ATM, the only way to change it, is by using a MCHBAR editor. (TMK this particular timing/setting isn't reported by any Intel datasheet)
Following this way, adding a long list of options for setting timings should be very nice... I guess that's what the enthusiastic overclockers want a good board to have. It also speaks for the board's quality.
A wide range of voltage settings would be great as well. Vcore, Vmch, Vfsb, Vpll, etc. With very high values availables (For instance, 1.65Vmch max on the P35D3 isn't enough...). A great reliability of voltage values (For instance, on my P35D3, 1.65Vmch equals 1.57v actual; 2.01Vcore equals 1.83v actual) and a particular care may be taken at reducing Vdroop.
I'll post more ideas later.

HT5552 how do I purchase items from wish list-none of the choices are purchase this song in version for computer-this is crazy!

in recent dowwload of I tunes-how do you purchase items listed in your wish list. There are 5 choices beside each song but none say-"purchase this song. Where do you go to actually purchase songs?

You need to click on the item's actual price, not the downward pointing arrow next to the price - you should then get a prompt to buy it. You will need to buy each one individually.

Problem with viewing the next page on "My Wish List"

Hello: "My Wish List" page in the iTunes store won't let me see page 2 (or higher). Even when I click on the obvious icon labelled "2" or "next" (as in "next page"), the page stubbornly remains on page 1. This seems ridiculous, but I'm wondering if anyone else is having this gnat of a problem? Any suggested solutions welcomed -- thanks in advance. Oh yes, I'm using iTunes 10.4.1.

While playing any song on your iPod, tap the artwork to bring up the scrubber bar and additional controls. On the left hand side is a option for repeat. You want to make sure this icon is white (meaning it is set to Off). If it isn't tap it either one or two times to change its current setting.
Any luck there?

A big wish for next version iPad - usb external hard drive connection

Can we ask that Apple consider putting a USB connection on the next version of iPad for those who want to use an external hard drive for storing images? When traveling some of us have too many images for the iPad storage and want to archive the RAW versions as well as see what we shot. This USB addition would be perfect for using for this and other applications. It would make the iPad perfect.

Ok, the idea for my request is I teach study abroad classes in photography. We do on the road critiques of the work. If the students stored all their images on those portable hard drives like the wolverine that would allow them to download onto them, they could just show them on the ipad, a much cheaper solution than the air that I would bring along. It's not about storage really when the images are not my own, but I would not store them there anyway like I don't store them on my macbook pro or my desktop but on archive external hard drives. When you shoot over 2000 raw and jpg images on one of these trips, you have to use external hard drives. The Air is gorgeous but I can get 2 ipads for the price of one air at the lower end. I am just really trying to find a way for the students not to have to bring so much equipment along. We have a trip planned to India in another year with them. Money will be an issue for them. I have taught university level photography for 36 years. I know about processing and we use lightroom for our classes. I really did not want to give the whole story just ask for the usb connector so we could see images from hard drives. That's all.

Your feature requests for next version?

I have submitted mine on the feedback page, but I would love to know what you all want the next version to include in terms of improvements and additional features.
In short, my prefered additions would include:
-Stack/collapse all in one keystroke
-More adjustments (among them lens distortion and CA correction)
-Speeeed
-Panorama stitching
-Networking, being able to share images

I like and use Aperture a lot, but realistically is still a v1 program. So I am looking forward to v2. Here's my wish list ....
1. Plug In suppport - Nik plug-in's etc.
2. iLife suite integration without duplicating photos or relying on Automator
3. Integration to FCP suite ..... since the photos are in a package!
4. Ability to use Spotlight external to the package ... or get rid of the package and just move to either file/folder structure or go to an indexed "RDBMS" database (yes, holy wars on this one, I know)
5. Burn archive of import, as a workflow element.
Multiple aperture libraries selectable from the File dialog vs. preference and then quit/launch
6. Span aperure library across drives
7 Standard max/min/lozenge buttons on windows and fonts that an over 50 year old can read .... or adjust .... on today's 23" or 30" high res. displays.
8. oh, and did somebody say .....
S-P-E-E-D?
speed
SPEEEED
9. ....but at least give us progress bars when say, moving photos from project to project
10. Undo on deleting a project .... you're into re-importing from the Mac trash can after figuring out which photo you need (yup, I have the scars and wasted time award)
11. Better visual representation of what's happening (or not) when trying to move photos across albums etc.
Either give us full line camera RAW support, or DNG linear support, or a plug in capability.
12. Overlay one photo on another in book view (tools to increase transparency/reduce saturation on the background photo to create a sense/theme)
12. CURVES!! tool
13. Loupe tool that will stay over the photo while I use the mouse to alter tool settings
14. .... and Luddite that I am, I do still need a <Cmd>+ / <Cmd> - zoom function along with the loupe.
Here endeth today's list. And my thanks to Joe and the Aperture development team in advance!

My iPhoto WIsh List for '07

Just sent the following to Apple's iPhoto Feedback; figured I'd post same here just for the heck of it. Many of these feature requests might only apply to my particular (and peculiar?) workflow, but I suspect at least a few of them might strike an empathetic chord...
One User's iPhoto Wish List:
Your first priority is to contact the creators of iPhoto Diet and iPhoto Library Manager, pay them lots of money for their work, and then incorporate all the features of their shareware apps into iPhoto itself.
This would add to iPhoto features it should have had for a long time now, including:
1) An option to delete unrotated originals.
It's silly to take up space on a hard drive with copies of files whose only difference is that one is correctly rotated and the other is not. Give us the choice to dispense with the unrotated ones.
2) An option to delete the originals for any selected file(s).
I know that "always keeping a copy of the original" is a sacred cornerstone of the iPhoto app, but SOMETIMES, after I've edited, resized, or done whatever to a given file, I feel I've created the new master file, and I truly really honestly would like the ability to just dispose of the now redundant original and get the space back on my hard drive.
(If this sounds like giving the user of a "consumer app" too much control, by all means bury this kind of option behind all the Advanced Tabs and all the Warning Dialogs you want -- but please at least give us the option to manage what we ultimately keep or don't keep in our iPhoto Libraries.)
3) Ways to manage multiple libraries on multiple machines with multiple users.
I have a 12GB (and growing) iPhoto Library on my G5 PowerMac. My wife's G5 iMac has a subset of that Library (about half the size), with the same Roll designations, Comments info, and Keyword assignments, along with some of the same Albums plus some unique Albums. I use iPhoto Library Manager to do this, but I should be able to do it using iPhoto itself.
Especially since the introduction of OS X, Apple has encouraged the notion of multiple users on multiple Macs. iPhoto needs to embrace that world view, and make the sharing and management of multiple iPhoto Libraries, even different versions of the same Library on different machines, a fluid, user-friendly, and fully-integrated process. For instance, I should be able to select which images, Rolls, and/or Albums from my Library get copied to my wife's machine (with all Comments, Roll info and Keywords intact) -- AND whether or not those copies include the corresponding original files or not.
Other features iPhoto needs:
4) Ability to correct and change the actual EXIF date/time info.
One example: It is extremely common to get jpegs from other users who haven't bothered to correctly set the date/time menu on their digital cameras. You want to correct that info, but if you do that in iPhoto's Info pane, and then Export that image and in turn Import it into another iPhoto Library, the Date/Time reverts back to the original INCORRECT setting. This is really annoying, and I feel like it's insulting my intelligence. (When I change the date of a photo, THAT'S the date I should now be able to search for by using the calendar mode, NOT its incorrect "creation" date.)
The current workaround of having to export the file, use another app like Graphic Converter to really change the exif data, then re-import into iPhoto (after first deleting the originals), then recreate all your Comments and Album arrangements, is clumsy, time-consuming, and when you think about it, absurd.
PLEASE consider a User Pref to the effect of "Changing Date/Time info changes original exif data as well"? You could have it unchecked as the default; you could have all sorts of "do you really want to do that?" warnings pop up when a user does check it -- but please just give us the option!
5) Better User Pref options.
Give us the choice to NOT create a dupe original when a file is viewed in an external editor but no changes are made; likewise when just rotating an image within iPhoto.
6) Better sorting/display options.
I display my library in Rolls (each Roll being pictures taken on a particular day or at a particular event). I'd like the ability to designate how files are sorted within a particular Roll -- the pictures in some Rolls sorted by file name, the pictures in other Rolls sorted by Date & Time.
Would also like to be able to insert dividers in the Source pane to separate some of my albums into different groups, as well as a way to set bookmarks or placeholders within a Library, as a quick shortcut to an often-viewed section for example.
7) More e-mail attachment options.
Within each of the Small, Medium, Large, and Actual Size choices, there should also be (perhaps under an Advanced tab) a sliding scale of jpg quality, with an instant feedback showing what the total file size will be at that particular setting.
Also, there should be four checkboxes: one for Image Name, one for Date, one for Time, and especially one for Comments -- allowing the user to determine which of those four bits of iPhoto info are included in the e-mail attachment along with the image itself.
8) Option to have Comments included in Captions for online albums.
Those same four checkboxes also need to be options for any kind online album posting. It's crazy that right now I can't put up an iWeb photo page that automatically includes the Comments I've taken the time to enter in iPhoto as part of that photo's Caption online.
9) Option to show file extension in Title
Including or not including the .jpg or .psd or .gif extension is an option when Exporting a file; why not when displaying it as well?
10) Option to "show all layers" of an imported Photoshop file.
Or any kind of layered file which has been imported into the iPhoto Library.
11) Ability to enter partial dates.
It often happens when you import an older scanned photo into your library (or even when you're just sent a recent photo from a friend), you don't know know the exact date and/or time the picture was originally taken. iPhoto really needs a way to enter partial, approximate or estimated dates -- just the month/year without a specific day, for example -- both in the Info pane AND in Batch Change mode.
(Also wouldn't mind a user pref option to display the Time without the seconds.)
12) Ability to Import pictures into an already selected Roll.
There are many times when I'd like to be able to select a particular Roll, then Import some new pics directly into that Roll -- rather than doing the Import, then having to drag the images sometimes several months back in time to drop them into the correct Roll.
13) Ability to delete files from an Album and the Library simultaneously.
This would be some sort of Option-Delete command, where a selected image being viewed in a particular Album is ALSO removed and sent to the Trash from the Library as well -- with the appropriate warning dialog, of course.
14) Built-in support for doing INCREMENTAL back-ups of either your entire Library -- or only the files from selected Albums -- to another hard drive.
I hope that most of these features have already been incorporated into the next release of iPhoto -- and if not, that you'll give serious consideration to implementing them as soon as possible. Your users will thank you.
John Bertram
Toronto

should add ability to scan directly to iphoto.
How would I give this wish to apple?
Note that under the Application Menu (in other words, in iPhoto under the bold Menu item called "iPhoto", right next to the blue Apple icon), there's a selection called Provide iPhoto Feedback. Clicking on that opens your default browser (if it's not already open), and sends you to the specific Apple webpage set up to receive user suggestions for that particular app.
In this case, the URL is the one "Old Toad" mentioned in his post:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html
Many of the major Apple apps have this direct menu link; for others you can just go to http://www.apple.com/feedback/ and navigate from there.
They claim to actually pay attention to this kind of user input; and I've heard people say it actually does affect how the development and implementation of new features get prioritized.
Let's hope so, anyway.

Wish list in next version: Curves. It's Missing.
