Sharpen The Zoomed Out Preview

@lrkrol Thanks for the update.

@mwsilvers I agree that the so called workaround is problematic, at least for me because I use DP XD(2s) to clean up my clumsy sky editing via a graduated filter.

How can it be difficult to implement when it is essentially the ‘Loupe’ but scaled up, which was really the NR preview window made larger and more easy to use and able to look at image detail to a much finer level of granularity.

So the technology has been there for a long so why are we getting excuses and half-baked workarounds instead of the product upgrade, sorry fix, which is so long overdue, incidentally failing to implement the Loupe in the F11 full screen preview was just plain dumb.

In the following video I have applied some edits to one of my infamous images where DxPL insists on adding even more CA, purple fringing or whatever it is called to the preview which only vanishes below 25% or at 75% or above.

I then opened the Loupe and traversed the entire image and then checked to make sure what I expected actually did happen, opened the screen recorder and repeated traversing the image 1 Loupe frame at a time.

Is there any hesitation in rendering?

Could it be that DxPL is smart enough to store the rendered image elements in memory?

Could DxPL make that rendered image available to the user now, in place of the excuses we get about how complicated it would be to implement this and it might be available at some time in the future etc.

I must make sure not to take my blood pressure for a few hours!!

PS: sorry about the fan control screen at the end of the video I missed the screen recorder icon and couldn’t be bothered to edit the video!
