New Features

• Validation tool is reenabled in Production tab
• A warning now pops up when color profile creation fails
• Remove third-party (non-Phase One) camera support.
  

Bug Fixes

• Validation Delta E results now match profiling results
• Cursors in target overlay window now point in the right directions
• Fixed a bug which caused Fusion capture to fail
• Various minor bug fixes
  

Known Issues

• AI Crop occasionally fails on an image without assigning the "On Failure" Color Tag
• AI Crop occasionally fails on an image and creates a new variant, even if the "Apply Crops to Variants" preference is set to "Replace Current Variants"
• Paper backing that is close to the object edge may result in poor AI Crop performance
• Users can change reference values for the profiling target, but not for additional targets. Best available defaults will be used
• Heatmap only checks FADGI 4* values, ignoring the standard selected in the dropdown
• Heatmap and DeltaE values are only shown for the profiling target. For Fusion and Validation targets, DeltaE values are in the Debug Report
• Nexus may become unresponsive with large image selections, especially during C1 preview generation. Limit selections to a few hundred images for now
• Fusion export will fail if there is not enough space on the target disk
• Padding values which result in crops greater than the original image size will result in undefined behavior
• The selected Fusion profile in the Export tab does not persist between app sessions
• Fusion Capture does not work with sessions on external hard drives

New Features

• Added GPU acceleration to significantly increase Fusion processing speed
• AI Crop now defaults to "Replace Variant"
• AI Crop maximum padding is now +/- 999
• Preferences option to respect or ignore crop when exporting images for Fusion processing.
• Center selected target in Color Profiling view
  

Spotlight on AI Crop & Straighten (Alpha)

The AI Crop & Straighten feature is now in alpha! While still under development, it offers a preview of AI-driven cropping and straightening for supported material types.

A major update is planned for Q2 2025, bringing improved accuracy and performance. In the meantime, please share your images and feedback to help us refine it.

• Spotlight on AI Crop & Straighten
  We’re excited to announce the first public release of our AI Crop & Straighten feature, powered by a custom AI model trained on over 40,000 heritage digitization images with hand-outlined components like pages, page fanning, covers, targets, and backing paper. We look forward to your feedback on its performance and areas for improvement. Please read the AI Crop documentation here.

  • Links to Color Profile folder now open the right folder
  • No longer show empty [...] menus in dock widgets

• Known Issues
  • Reference values for validation targets are not currently user configurable. Best available defaults will be used
  • Heatmap only checks for FADGI 4* values
  • Color profile creation wizard may sometimes fail when capturing directly from camera. If this happens, take flat field and target captures from the preflight panel and select "Use selected image" in the profile creation wizard.
  • Nexus may become temporarily unresponsive when a large number of images is selected; especially if C1 is generating previews. We expect to improve this in the future, but until then you may wish to limit selections to a few hundred images or fewer

• Bug Fixes
  • Ignore hardware trigger messages from Stellar units during active capture.
