Hi Raye;


Yes it does work that way, except that our "slider" numbers indicate the radius of each Sharpening increment. Lapalcian Pyramidal Sharpness works in a a similar way too.


Depending on how much noise is in the image, I'll typically use 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 in decreasing order amounts.

Hi Guys,


I'm still on the ToUcam Yahoo Group and one of the members posted the message below does the "wavelets" bit of Astro IIDC work in the same way?


Regixtax wavelets are not too complicated once you understand them. 

They are basically similar to unsharp masking, but with one big 

difference. The slider bars allow you to sharpen the image by 

detail size. The #1 slider bar sharpens the finest details. The #2 

slider sharpens details a bit bigger. And so on. The #6 slider bar 

sharpens only the largest details.
