Stretch of luminance blowing out the star cores
« on: 2019 November 08 06:01:27 »
Hello,
I am struggling to tame my star cores and galaxy cores in the luminance after even a gentle HT stretch.  Masked stretch blows them up completely.  This is luminance so I can't use HSVRepair.
Some of my star cores are slightly blown even in the linear state.

Is there way to stretch without totally blowing out the cores please?  Maybe with a mask or something?  I am really struggling here with large data time integrations.

Struggling to upload attatchements at the moment on this site to show you what I mean.
Thanks, Steve
