New version of ImPPG

Post by Montana »

I downloaded the new version of ImPPG but all the buttons at the top are black? I have to hover over them to read which button is which. Is this a bug?

Sounds like a glitch to me.

Alexandra, which Windows version do you use?
Did you perhaps unpack ImPPG to a folder containing the previous version? If so, try unpacking to a fresh folder and running from there.


My software:
Stackistry — an open-source cross-platform image stacker
ImPPG — stack post-processing and animation alignment

Thanks, I have Windows 7.

I will try and download again tonight. I did it at the same time that I messed up FlyCapture and had to do a system restore. Maybe this has affected it somehow.

Hi Alexandra,
I only downloaded the latest version 0.5.4 only yesterday. I have a Quark Chromosphere filter, only used once so far, for my ED70 refractor.

Here is my ImPPG started up:

I think the icons image files are missing, maybe there was an error in the unzipping.

Just fixed - broken item number 1 :hamster:

I had 3 part versions in the 32 program folder. Everything must have got messed up with the system restore. I removed all the junk, downloaded the version again and placed the folder in the 64 bit program folder. Yippee it works!!!

Only 3 more broken things to sort now

Alexandra
