AI Sharpen

improved sharpening tools like is in "Topaz Sharpen", not just tools that adds contrast to edges.

I have owned several versions of PaintShop Pro and currently have PSP 2019. It has the Map Mode to show the location of your photos on a map. However, that feature is BROKEN and Corel has not fixed it!! I hope PSP 2024 will have a working Map function. If not, I'll be shopping for something else. Thanks!

They have removed that feature. I use an older version to copy paste and input coordinates.
It would be nice to use the free OpenStreetMap link. Very simple to implement.

A (more) user-friendly way to remove sensor dust spots.

Some of these might have already been added or be possible and PSP 2023 doesn't want to run on my system. It's too late for the current version but possibly for next year or with an update.

#1 Set fullscreen mode with status bar persistently. It's also annoying that it reverts back to windowed mode when pressing escape. Or basically an option to remove the title bar which is what fullscreen mode is. Tabs should not coexist with menu bars, EVER! This is a basic feature anyone can add in a few minutes so not having it is just a disregard for users.
#2 Clear and cut to background colour. Unless I'm missing something PSP always clears to transparent even on raster layers. So you have to tediously use tools to colour in to the background colour within the selection. Google also doesn't bring up a solution.
#3 More text manipulation. I couldn't find any way to set the vertical alignment of characters so had to resort to separate text that I positioned by hand having to adjust the kerning as a placeholder, even if transparent text was available (I couldn't find it) this still wouldn't have worked with the text cutter. Leading only works on the line level and not with individual characters.

More on working with text. I don't know if it's a bug or some undescribed way of handling it but sometimes you need to double click on text to select it with the text tool and then a third time to edit it while sometimes a single click is enough. For a single click guy such as myself this is confusing and it should be just one or the other preferably while being able to choose which one. When editing text you need to double click outside the box to add new text while a single click is probably expected.

The undo function should be expanded inside text boxes. If you make a mistake you now have to manually undo it or exit edit mode and undo all the changes you did.


I might be missing this but can't find "zoom to fit".

Ability to remove "Browse with...". I already have IrfanView set as my image viewer so don't need PSP to clutter my context menus like that.

Not directly program related but please a better scripting reference with examples where possible. The current one is a mess with a lot of undocumented functionality and options.

Thanks for Kathy_9 for starting the thread.

Stability and speed
Touch mode for the "Complete" workspace
Paste in place
Improved layer styles - addition of stroke for example and the ability to apply styles to layer groups

Everyone has different use cases so I appreciate the opportunity to share this.
