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/retouch-finally-works.

Answers may refer to older versions of Ansel, and image attachments did not survive the shutdown. Current discussion happens on GitHub Discussions .

In version f1be207 that I compiled a few hours ago and which seems to be even newer than the Appimage version 829e617 listed on Github, finally retouch works as it’s supposed to! No more strange detours compressing the command stack and then clicking on the region to be modified. Thank you very much, Aurélien!
