Known issues

Version 2.1

Intel Macs & Photoshop CS3: FL 2.1 should work with Photoshop CS3 if the application is forced to run under Rosetta. The next version will be a universal binary that can run native on Intel Macs and CS3, however a new release is not planned until the winter 2007/2008. To run Photoshop under Rosetta, right-click on the Photoshop application icon in Finder and choose "Get Info". In the opened window, check-mark the option "Open under Rosetta".
Concatenator: Under Photoshop CS3 the composite image is too big and can often not be created because of a lack of memory.
Windows Vista: There are some painting issues on the Preview page when the main window is initially displayed. Furthermore there are some painting issues with the stretch function and zoom drop down lists.

Note: Issues 1-3 below should have been corrected in version 1.01 that can be downloaded here.

Version 1.0

Installation of the plug-in for Windows Elements 2.0 installed in a directory other than the default c:\program files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 2 may have to install the files manually. Read here.
File association .fts does not work in Windows. Please rename the file to .fits.
Users of Photoshop for other languages may have to install the files manually. Read here. A possible workaround is to write the path to the C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Photoshop CS\Plugins\ in the Photoshop
Settings (Plugins and Virtual Memory).
Photoshop may have problems opening FITS files in a very deep file hierachy, e.g. c:\Documents and Settings\Jay Beck\My Documents\My Work\Lib\Pictures\Science\Astronomy\Planetary nebula NGC 6881\F555W-u2sa2702t.co.fits . Move the file to a less deep file heirachy.
Photoshop may have problems opening FITS files that reside in directories with brackets - () or [] - in the name. Move the file to directory without brackets.
