While the auto mask works well and there are tools to fine tune a custom mask, I do wish there was a brush within the plugin you could use to quickly eliminate areas from the mask, such as hair and fabrics. For example, I would reduce the effect of Portraiture 3's adjustments on the subject's lips and around the eyes slightly. By outputting the results as its own layer, it's easy to selectively apply the mask to the image. try again.Before (left) and after (right) of the automatic skin mask and adjustments being applied. If you can’t find the Imagenomic’s Plist files in the “/Library/Preferences” FOLDER something has not worked. After clicking Ok An imagenomic Plist file will be written which you can check in the finder window we opened earlier.ħ.Last stage is to put the permissions back to how they were before in BatChmod. Go ahead and run Portraiture, fill in user details and serial number.

In your ‘get info’ window you now see the sharing and permissions changes to Read and write. (you will be asked for you user password for changes to be made) Make sure the ‘R” and “W” are checked in Group and Everyone.

In BatChmod Change Owner settings to your user name. Run BatChmod and add the “/Library/Preferences” FOLDER and make a mental note of the settings.ĥ. Now in finder open your /library/preferences folder and leave that open too.Ĥ. From root go to Library, Right click Preferences and click “get info” leave it open ( note the permissions) So I have my own solution which is much easier.ģ.Open the following windows ( this is just for info so you can see whats going on) On the Imagenomic’s web forum there is a post explaining how to overcome this permissions problem but it’s 20 lines of restart, do this, do that and I have tried it 30 times and it never worked. The problem is, because the permissions are wrong, no Plist file gets written and the next time you start you have to enter all the info again.

When you install Portraiture, and run, for the first time it will ask for your info and serial number it then writes a plist file with the licence information. Things went sideways with Portraiture after the release of Lion and how Lion handles the permissions in the Preferences folder for the Plist file. Those reading this will know what I’m talking about. Wel it’s took me a long time to find a super easy way to install Portraiture on Lion.
