ALL -- I have to admit, I'm almost fed up with the Cyberlink 'mess' I've experienced ! This latest one is probably something that can be reversed, but maybe not.

After working several hours on a panorama project, I've go an image that was moved/cut in 1/2 or something and I am unable to reverse what has occured. PhotoDirector has been acting very odd/strange lately, so I have purposely saved often. I had just completed the 2d round of color edits to a large file and successfully saved the image. I took a short break, came back opened PD7, opened the file (verifying the latest edits had been collected. Opened the layers tab and the picture immediately went to the image attached. I attempted to exit without saving after the UNDO command would not work, but the file saved (same name) the unwanted version.

Any tips, suggestions, fixes???

Very frustrated !!

Hello DSCinHSV,

Agreed, that would be frustrating because there seems no rhyme or reason for it to do that.

All is not lost, however. I'm sure you have your colour-adjusted panorama saved (or at least still in the library ready for export).

I would simply select it, return to the layers module, then proceed.

By the way, in the Layers module, had you saved it as a phi (containing layers) or a flattened image file (.jpg, .png or .tiff)? There's a screenshot attached showing the options in PhD7.

Also, it appears you've not added any layers to the panorama in any case, so not much work is lost. PIX YouTube channel
