Note
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-workaround.
You can check this copy against the snapshot in the Internet Archive.
Answers may refer to older versions of Ansel, and image attachments did not survive the shutdown. Current discussion happens on GitHub Discussions .

for Circle & Eclipse (Add Path works)
Updated Method: (Seems to NOT work while in ISO Color Assessment) Open Retouch module/select Shape and place in position. Close Retouch module. Re-open Retouch module. Click ONCE on Input shape, then click on Input shape and now you can move it
OLD METHOD: select Retouch module/select Shape/position & adjust/Compress history stack/select Retouch module/click on the Input shape.
Input will now be applied.
