Hi everybody,
I've been trying to re-open old .fits file with the "folder cam" to pratice histogram setup, but when the file opens it's full off weird spots that i can't get rid off
With a picture it's better :

Hi,

is the 'old fits' perhaps a 32 bit FITs file saved from live stacking? The support for reloading those is not perfect. 16 bit FITS should load OK. You could also try loading the 32 bit FITS into another application then resaving into TIFF/PNG.

cheers,

Robin

Thanks
