![]() You pick the output destination, naming options, output file format, quality, and color space. You get to decide what family of “looks” filters, and the specific AI filter to use when each image is processed as well as the level of the filter’s strength, from 0% to 100%. The batch processing window has a couple of default options to export images for email or the web. If Luminar really bills itself as easing photographer’s workflow, it should actually make that workflow easier! I also decided to try the batch processing option to get an idea of how practical that process is. Luminar has a complete suite of image management tools that include folders, where Luminar can manage your image folders and albums, where you can put similar images from different physical folders – think playlists in iTunes. I created a new catalog for these images and let Luminar grab the images once I copied them into the catalog. If we’re going to have AI do the heavy lifting here, let’s see how intelligent it really is. When I chose images for this review, I decided to grab a selection of pretty good images, and some pretty bad ones, in terms of lighting and contrast. While I have an SSD, as stated above, my images are on network attached storage, so I pay a performance hit there as well. Based on the requirements, my laptop is at the bottom in terms of RAM, but better than the minimum processor speed.

![]() At the time these words are written, however, it is unlikely that the company will provide us with a real streaming service, like the Stadia platform. Moreover, Valve has also published a document which shows that a beta version of the service has already been prepared for developers (via VG247 ).Īccording to Valve, Steam Cloud Play is designed to "provide users with more opportunities for where and how they play their video games. The information contained in the code of the latest Steam client patch suggests, however, that work on it is progressing. Allegedly, because so far we have not seen any official announcement from Gabe Newell and the company. ![]() Steam Cloud Play, formerly known as Steam Cloud Gaming, is a streaming service that Valve is allegedly working on.
You can however draw in deviantART muro, choose "export image" (under "File"), save the file to your computer and submit it like any other file. There is no option to submit a muro drawing directly to Sta.sh yet. All formatting in the original file should be transferred over. In the writer, you can choose to write up your deviation and use the formatting buttons, or paste rich text from somewhere else - say, the Word file where you wrote it. It's a WYSIWYT editor (What You See Is What You Type) this means you can choose if you want to use HTML codes or rich text (or both). These browsers also support drag and drop for one or more files open Sta.sh in one window, open your folder with the file(s) in another, and drag the file(s) from the folder to Sta.sh.įor literature, there's Sta.sh Writer ("Write to Sta.sh"). Most browsers (at least Chrome, Firefox, Safari) support selecting multiple files at once here, that Sta.sh will then upload one by one into a new stack. Submit files from your computer by clicking Upload to Sta.sh (choose the file from your computer in the popup). Submitting basically happens in two parts. ![]() You can then share it only with those people you want - for example to ask their opinion before submitting it to your gallery. Main advantages are that you can submit deviations faster, from more places (currently with apps for android, iPhoto, mac, iOS, etc., as well as from email and FTP) and you can keep them private if you want.

![]() Initially, the protocol was unprotected, and it was assumed that the data channel was always reliable. The problem in FTP security is the following. The FTP protocol itself is reliable and guarantees the delivery of the necessary files to the user, however, if everything is in order with the connection. We cannot say that nobody needs them, just not everyone needs them. The rest features of the apps are rather individual and are needed by a relatively smaller number of users.
![]() Together, the AND mask and XOR mask make for a non-transparent image representing an image with 1-bit transparency they also allow for inversion of the background. The XOR mask conforms to the bit depth specified in the BMP header and specifies the numerical color or palette value for each pixel. The AND mask is 1 bit per pixel, regardless of the color depth specified by the BMP header, and specifies which pixels are fully transparent(1) and which are fully opaque(0). The XOR mask must precede the AND mask inside the bitmap data if the image is stored in bottom-up order (which it most likely is), the XOR mask would be drawn below the AND mask. Images with less than 32 bits of color depth follow a particular format: the image is encoded as a single image consisting of a color mask (the "XOR mask") together with an opacity mask (the "AND mask"). Icon resource structure Īn ICO or CUR file is made up of an ICONDIR ("Icon directory") structure, containing an ICONDIRENTRY structure for each image in the file, followed by a contiguous block of all image bitmap data (which may be in either Windows BMP format, excluding the BITMAPFILEHEADER structure, or in PNG format, stored in its entirety). Erroneous types image/ico, image/icon, text/ico and application/ico have also been seen in use. While the IANA-registered MIME type for ICO files is image/, it was submitted to IANA in 2003 by a third party and is not recognised by Microsoft software, which uses image/x-icon instead. With users using higher resolutions and high DPI modes, larger icon formats (such as 256×256) are recommended. The Windows Vista shell adds a slider for "zooming" the icon sizes in and out. The Windows Vista Explorer supports smoothly scaling icons to non-standard sizes which are rendered on the fly even if an image is not present for that size in the icon file. Although compression is not required, Microsoft recommends that all 256×256 icons in ICO files should be stored in PNG format to reduce the overall size of the file. Windows Vista added a 256×256-pixel icon view to Windows Explorer, as well as support for the compressed PNG format. Windows XP can downscale 256×256 and larger icons if no closer image size is available. Microsoft only recommended icon sizes up to 48×48 pixels for Windows XP. Windows XP can be forced to use icons as large as 256×256 by modifying the Shell icon size value but this would cause all 32×32 icons throughout the shell to be upscaled. Windows XP, by default, employs 48×48 pixel icons in Windows Explorer. Windows XP added support for 32-bit color (16.7 million colors plus alpha channel transparency) icon images, thus allowing semitransparent areas like shadows, anti-aliasing, and glass-like effects to be drawn in an icon. The notification area of the Windows taskbar was limited to 16 color icons by default until Windows Me when it was updated to support high color icons. Thus, a single icon file could store images of any size from 1×1 pixel up to 256×256 pixels (including non-square sizes) with 2 (rarely used),16, 256, 65535, or 16.7 million colors but the shell could not display very large sized icons. ![]() The Shell Icon Size value allows using larger icons in place of 32×32 icons and the Shell Small Icon Size value allows using custom sizes in place of 16×16 icons. It was possible to enable 65535 color (Highcolor) icons by either modifying the Shell Icon BPP value in the registry or by purchasing Microsoft Plus! for Windows 95. However, 256 color was the default icon color depth in Windows 95. Windows 95 also introduced a new Device Independent Bitmap (DIB) engine. Win32 introduced support for storing icon images of up to 16.7 million colors (TrueColor) and up to 256x256 pixels in dimensions. ![]() Support for 16 colors was introduced in Windows 3.0. ![]() Icons introduced in Windows 1.0 were 32×32 pixels in size and were monochrome. The ANI file format is used for animated Windows cursors. The only differences between these two file formats are the bytes used to identify them and the addition of a hotspot in the CUR format header the hotspot is defined as the pixel offset (in x,y coordinates) from the top-left corner of the cursor image where the user is actually pointing the mouse. The CUR file format is an almost identical image file format for non-animated cursors in Microsoft Windows. In Windows, all executables that display an icon to the user, on the desktop, in the Start Menu, or in Windows Explorer, must carry the icon in ICO format. ICO files contain one or more small images at multiple sizes and color depths, such that they may be scaled appropriately. The ICO file format is an image file format for computer icons in Microsoft Windows. To avoid this you can install FireFly's Crusader HD patch for free, which should support all of the unofficial changes.

![]() In fact, this blog post itself is written using RMarkdown. ![]() I also love the fact that whilst the outputs are highly customisable (e.g. adding your own CSS), it is also incredibly easy to produce a professional document by using an existing template (e.g. see prettydoc and rmdformats). Not only does the format encourage reproducible analysis by enabling you to interweave code, text, images, and plots, it also allows you to knit() the document into so many different formats, including static HTML, MS Word, PowerPoint, PDF - everything done from the comfort of the RStudio IDE! Renviron file and set a value there.When I first started using RMarkdown, it felt very much like a blessing. There is a package to help this : “ezknitr - Avoid the typical working directory pain when using ‘knitr’”Īnother option is to use an. Opts_knit$set(root.dir = file.path(options("projfolder"))) One way to do this is to include uin the ‘setup’ code chunk, which is usually at the top of RMD file (Rstudio puts a chunk in when you create a new Rmd file: ` ` ` You cannot use setwd() with knitr (or several other file-related operations like file.exists() ). If you keep your data files and scripts in separate folders (and you should) you need to configure knitr. Rmd file to find any files you need to draw in, like data sets or script files. Knitr, by default, looks in the same directory as your. This is different, and your markdown file may not be able to find files when using knittr than when you ran ti before. However, when you ‘knit’ an Rmd file, the working directory is set (setwd() ) to the directory in which the markdown file sits. This is also true when you run chunks in an Rmarkdown file as descrihbed above. When you source a script from the console, the working directory is what ever you’ve swet it to, or the top directory of your Rstudio project if you haven’t. Sometimes your markdown file or your code depends on files beiung in particular paths (e.g. data files). Communicating with R Markdown: A full-day workshop for users who want to get more out of R Markdown (and friends):.I like this intro because the author was a grad student:.Hadley Wickahm’s chapter on Rmarkdown:.When you click the Knit button in R Studio (looks like a knitting needle with ball of yarn) a document will be generated that includes both content as well as the output of any embedded R code chunks within the document. I recommend using “KnitR” when you want to publish (i.e., click on “knit to HTML”, “knit to PDF”, etc. If you haven’t already watched the R Markdown tutorial, you may want to refer to it when putting together an analysis write-up: (including “How it Works”, “Code Chunks”, and “Markdown Basics”). R Markdown is especially helpful with collaborative research and coursework, and is often used in supplemental materials with publications. It’s handy because it produces neat summaries of your work in HTML or PDF or other formats (Word docs). It enables you to generate nice reports with R code, figures, tables, and text. R Markdown is part word-processor, part R output. R Markdown is an authoring framework for R code and output. After you’ve written source code and maybe a package, an RMarkdown document is a good way to demonstrate how to use your code and results. ![]() Given the thin chassis of the laptop, we found the number of ports to be about as good as could be expected. It certainly puts the two USB-C ports of the MacBook Air (M1, 2020) and MacBook Pro 13-inch (M1, 2020) to shame. It’s definitely a big selling point, and that – along with the full-size USB port and microSD slot – show that it is possible for a thin and light laptop to incorporate multiple connections without compromising design. The latter allows you to turn off the webcam when it isn't in use it's a great feature for people concerned about their privacy. In terms of connections, you get an audio-in jack and full-size USB port on the right (the inclusion of a full-size USB port is a nice touch for such a thin and light laptop), plus two USB-C ports, a microSD port and a physical webcam kill switch on the left. ![]() The right-hand side is engraved with the word ‘Spectre’ – a nice touch that further cements the Spectre x360’s overall premium feel. The 360-degree hinge, which allows the screen to flip back completely, turning the Spectre x360 into a tablet-like device, feels solid and reliable. The Spectre x360 arrives with a brushed-metal design that's available in several color combinations. Design-wise, the Spectre x360 is basically identical to the previous model – which is no bad thing, considering how impressed we were with its looks. So, it comes as little surprise that the new model is yet another gorgeous laptop from HP. To be honest, we never had any doubt that it would the previous model was one of the nicest-looking laptops we've had the pleasure of reviewing. With a premium price you expect a premium design, and HP certainly delivers with the HP Spectre x360 (2021). The Bang & Olufsen audio is decent, especially for a 2-in-1 audio system. This is a seriously premium laptop – which means it needs to work hard to justify its high price. Even the cost of the base models exceed those of many other laptops. So, as you can see, there's plenty of choice available for those in the market for a new HP Spectre x360 – but we'd hesitate to say there's a model for every budget. Like models in the UK and US, there are numerous configurations available, including models with 14-inch and 15-inch screen sizes. It's also available with the Core i7, 16GB of RAM, a 4K OLED screen and a 2TB SSD for AU$4,599. In Australia, you can get the 13-inch model with an Intel Core i7-1165G7, 16GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD for AU$3,399. Ports: 1x USB-A 3.1, 2 x Thunderbolt 4, microSD card reader, combi audio jack Here is the HP Spectre x360 (2021) configuration sent to TechRadar for review:ĬPU: Intel Core i7-1165G7 (quad-core, up to 4.7GHz Boost) In addition, the Spectre x360 comes with various screen sizes: 13 inches (the version we’re testing), 15 inches, and 13.5 inches (which has a taller 16:10 aspect ratio). There's also a model with the same CPU and RAM, but with a 1TB SSD and a 4K OLED screen for £1,699.99. Then there’s a version with an Intel Core i7 -1165G7 processor, 16GB of R AM and a 512GB SSD, which is the version on review here. In the UK, the base model costs £1,199.99 and comes with an Intel Core i5 -1135G7 processor, 8GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. Prices start at $1,149.99 in the US, for a model with an Intel Core i5 -1135G7 processor, 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD. The HP Spectre x360 (2021) is available in a variety of configurations and prices. Where can you get it? The HP Spectre x360 (2021) is available in the US, UK, and Australia.When can you get it?
