We can finally freehand draw our masks in PI! My new script allows you to freehand draw, draw ellipses, squares, along with moving the shapes, resize them, and rotate them. There are various mask types to use, a binary, lightness, and chrominance mask types too! I think this has been a feature sorely missing from PI. I hope this is a big help for everyone!!! Video I made covering the script: https://youtu.be/xASIu2tTL8s Link to my website for PI scripts: https://www.setiastro.com/pjsr-scripts Repository link: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/setiastro/pixinsight-updates/main/ Comments and Suggestions appreciated!   |

Thanks! I have been wondering for quite some time why this wasn't part of PixInsight.

Added a Color Mask Type now!! So within the defined shape areas if you want to focus on a specific color you can now too.

@Franklin Marek it would be also very handy if it was possible to merge the new mask definition to an existing mask; that way, if we realize we need to add a mask area to an already defined one, we don't need to start from scratch. Or maybe you have an existing range mask, and you want to add something to it.

Oh! It's not part of your PixInsight repository - is it? I can't see it in my installation, and I do point to your repository, and see "FAME"…

MaskMerge is part of my repository. It all should be under SetiAstro. If you dont see it go to Scripts->Feature Scripts->Add then navigate to c://program files/pixinsight/src/scripts and click Select Folder. It will re look through the folder and add any the update missed |

Yes, I can see it now - after doing that; I wonder why that was missed. Anyway, all good now; that MaskMerge script would have saved me a fair amount of PixelMath while processing the Ring Nebula last week! Thanks again! |

Why does the link return an 404 error?

andrea tasselli: You need to add that to your repository! In PixInsight go to Resources -> Updates -> Manage Repositories, then click Add. Copy the URL in there. Click ok. Then Resources -> Updates -> Check for Updates. After you install it you need to restart pixinsight. |

Thanks! I have been wondering for quite some time why this wasn't part of PixInsight. See post 7 here as a possible explanation as to why it goes against the philosophy of the devs. Though there is a clone stamp in Pixinsight, which to me would violate those principles too. |

That sounds more like religious believes to me than actual rational considerations; but it is his product.

I was referring to the link to the website but now it appears working. The script however does not:  |

Joey Conenna:Thanks! I have been wondering for quite some time why this wasn't part of PixInsight. There is a ton in PI that violates this. Heck slap a mask on something (even made from RangeSelector) and use pixel math on it. Or just PixelMath in general can be specific down to the pixel. You mentioned clone stamp, you can also be aggressive on colorsaturation or curves with dozens of points to specifically isolate colors or brigthness level.... What about SCNR, just destroy a color by the user wanting to do it? That just does not seem like a good reason why there hasn't been a freehand mask tool yet. Either way I hope you guys find utility in my script!! |

andrea tasselli: Time to update PI. You can stick with 1.8.9-2 if you don't want to go to 1.8.9-3 yet. The last release of 1.8.9-2 is build 1605. |

V1.2 now has a brush and spraycan tool! When using the brush tool is shows the skeleton of it in the preview so you can still see what you are doing but fills in when you hit execute.  |

Franklin, I just want to thank you for all the immense effort you are putting into these free tools and scripts. All of them are well thought and very useful in solving some actual real world workflow annoyances. Keep up the great work. |
