Fabio, you have to manually set the environment variables. Look at the post. Also, you need to change the contents of some directories.


Juan, I think that ColorSpaces is a best idea. At least, this process is in the same line as LRGBCombination...

Yes, I eventually figured all that out. Still, this module looks for some symbols which are missing from the standard PCL.a library.

For example, this one will be included in ColorSpaces, or perhaps PixelMath --I'm in doubt about this (ideas welcome).

I'd opt for a process on its own. That leaves the door open to further improvements, which would be harder to implement under the restrictions of the PixelMath syntax.

David, Juan was talking about categories ;) not processes

I would definitely put this together with the LRGB combine tool.
Speaking of categories, are we sure there aren't too many right now? Sometime it gets difficult to find some process.

Oh I see. If you'd asked me, I would have answered that PixelMath was a process in some category, and said nothing about the PixelMath category and the Divide process. Just had to fire up PI right now to check! xD

ColorSpaces seems like more intuitive to me.

Hmmm... I guess that it is a matter to know the processes better. Right now the categories are divided into very specific fields of image processing, so if you know what we need, it quite easy to just open the desired category. I hardly use the Favorites or All categories :P

Anyway, I do think that the Process Explorer needs more work, to create a more flexible way to present the processes to the users, even to customize its contents just as icons inside folders.
