If you make the adjustments in Photoshop with a non-destructive workflow there is no use of sidecar files or catalog entries as in Lightroom.
True, but this has nothing to do with whether a process is reversible or not.
Of course it does. Non-destructive adjustments means they are reversible.
Not in the strictly technical sense in which Floyd was using the term.
that's the whole problem.
floyd cannot acknowledge that there are other completely valid meanings.
If you want to argue with what he said then you have to use the same meaning that he did.
i used the common meaning of the term reversible.
Look up the common meaning of the term "reversible process", and stop making absurd claims. Your problem is not knowing what we are talking about, even now after all this discussion and effort to explain it.
i didn't say reversible process. you are twisting what i said as well as lying.
i said usm is reversible with a non-destructive workflow.Not in the sense of a reversible process.
that is a true statement, and not limited to just usm. again, that's the whole point of a non-destructive workflow.It may be for your definition of 'reversible' but it is not so in the sense of the standard meaning of 'reversible process'.
your problem is you can't admit that you have no idea about how a non-destructive workflow actually works, so you pretend you do and toss out some buzzwords like non-linear undo (which is laughably wrong) and then try to claim it's only for cartoon characters.
you clearly spewing and also looking like an utter fool.nospamhe is using his own narrow definition and intentionally dismissing *anything* else.Floyd L. Davidson
Because a typical dictionary may have 14 meanings for a word is not a license for a reader to choose which one to abuse. The *writer* chooses, not the reader.
it seems you cannot discern between reading and writing.
*i'm* the one who said usm is reversible in a non-destructive workflow, which makes *me* the writer. therefore, according to you, i get to choose.
not that i need to choose, since they all apply: <http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/reversible> : able to be changed back to an earlier or original state--
yes.
: able to be stopped and not causing permanent damage or changes
yes
: having two sides that can be used
if you consider raw and finished to be sides, then this works too.
definitely 2 out of 3 and arguably 3 out of 3.
it's reversible.
