Sharper previews, shooting order by default, and sliders you can set to a tenth. Edits you made before this version keep looking exactly as they did.

Installing

  • From 0.11.0: click Update to 0.12.0 in the top bar (or Preferences → Updates → Check now). It installs and reopens in the project you were in.
  • macOS: Pickapicka-v0.12.0-macos-arm64.pkg
  • Windows: Pickapicka-0.12.0-windows-x64.exe
  • uv tool: uv tool upgrade pickapicka
  • Homebrew: brew upgrade pickapicka

New

  • Previews sharpen when you stop. The editor shows a quick render while you drag; once you have been still for a moment it renders again from the full-resolution file at your screen's size. The viewer opens RAW and edited photos at your screen's resolution and switches to full resolution when you zoom in.

  • Shooting order. Photos in a scene run in capture-time order. A Sort: Time | People switch next to the layout buttons brings back the order by people's priority when you want it, and is remembered per project.

  • Folders that are not part of the shoot. If the photo folder has changed since a project was last scored (say, a folder of video stills appeared inside it), opening the project no longer re-scores on its own. A Folders dialog shows what is new in each folder, and lets you leave folders out or re-score. More → Folders… opens it any time. Leaving a folder out takes its photos out of the project and touches nothing on disk.

  • Finer sliders.

    • Every slider holds tenths. A plain drag and the arrow keys move whole units; Shift+arrow moves ten, Option(Alt)+arrow a tenth, and Option-drag moves at a tenth of the speed.
    • The −100…100 sliders are gentler around zero (a log scale, as in RawTherapee), so the small values most edits use get more room.
    • Exposure shows ±4 stops and takes a typed value up to ±5.
  • Process version 2 for new edits:

    • Exposure is in real stops. "+1" used to be about 2.2 stops.
    • Colour mixer luminance no longer lifts shadows. It brightens or darkens a colour by how much colour each pixel really has, so Blue +10 changes the sky and leaves dark blue-grey shadows and greys alone.

    Edits made before keep the old maths and look exactly as they did. The editor shows Old process · Update on them; Update moves an edit across and converts its exposure so mid grey stays where it was.

Fixed

  • Re-scoring no longer drops a project's time-gap scenes (it fell back to folder scenes) or the saved edit slots.
