Two UI wishes
« on: 2018 July 29 10:37:27 »
These are wishes rather than bug reports.

(1) When a file is opened by right-clicking "Open With..." "PixInsight" (under Windows), PixInsight opens up with the process console on top of the picture.  Unless you think to minimize the process console, it is not obvious that the picture has been opened, since it's completely hidden.  I wonder if the process console should auto-minimize or the picture should open up in a different position on the screen.

(2) The defaults for saving as TIF are presently no compression, include alpha channel.  I have to change these every single time.  How about ZIP compression and no alpha channel if no alpha channel has been utilized?

PixInsight can already do both things  ::)

(1) Unstick the console and/or change the "console window delay".

(2) Change the preferences for the TIFF format using the "Format Explorer".
