Archived discussion. This page is a verbatim copy of a thread from
community.ansel.photos, the Ansel community forum, which ran from March 2023
until it was taken offline in June 2025 after the site was compromised — a counterfeit
site had been planted inside the forum software, so the whole thing had to come down.
The original address was https://community.ansel.photos/view-discussion/history-stack-oddities-missing-indicator.
No crawler ever captured this particular thread, so the text below — taken straight from the forum database — is the only copy left.
Answers may refer to older versions of Ansel, and image attachments did not survive the shutdown. Current discussion happens on GitHub Discussions .

In version 12afe31 I just noticed that I cannot clear the history of an image, if I want to start from scratch. Moreover, in the darkroom, when I try to copy the history stack, I get a warning “Copy is allowed only with exactly one image selected”, even though the image in question has no further copies. Furthermore, the little triangle indicating the active image in the filmstrip has disappeared. Sometimes the enclosing frame if this image is slightly highlighted, but not always, e.g., when the mouse pointer is between the film strip and the currently opened picture.
