Clarity/Structure not in output

Permanently deleted user
Hi,
The effects of the settings I have adjusted in Clarity tool, both clarity and structure, are not appearing in an output file when opened in PS CS5. I have tried both 8 and 16-bit Tiff outputs, with sharpening unchecked in 16-bit. The effects also don't seem to appear in prints from either C1 or PS CS5

using C1 7.1.3, OS 10.6.8, PS CS5.
Thanks,
Tom

    Which Clarity method did you use? Have you tried a different method?

    Hi Paul,
    I used 'classic" method. It has a very noticeable effect with, in this case, +50 clarity and -90 structure.

    A quick check gives me the impression that the Structure slider in the Classic method does not have any effect. I get a noticeable effect with the Structure slider when using the Neutral and Punch method.

    The Clarity slider is effective with all three methods.

    Hi Paul,
    I am not sure I agree with your comment. Here is what I see:
    My image is a landscape, Image size at either fit or 25%
    Also, when switching between methods, need to be sure +,- settings remain constant..it seems classic and neutral remain same but punch will remain at a previous setting.
    I floated a focus tool under clarity tool to help me see back and forth comparisons.

    Clarity 0, Structure (-100): Classic most blurred and soft, Neutral and Punch less blurred and more contrast but very similar.
    Clarity (-100), Structure(-100): Classic softest, Neutral and Punch less blurred and more defined contrast.
    Clarity (+90), Structure (-100): Classic still most blurred but with increased contrast, Neutral and Punch, in order,
    more contrast,less apparent blur.

    Here are some color numbers:
    R G B BK
    Dark tree trunk- Classic 30 30 2 27
    Neutral 15 18 0 15
    Punch 13 16 0 13

    Reddish field C 210 181 121 183
    N 222 194 130 195
    P 228 198 136 200

    Green field C 199 201 117 191
    N 225 223 147 215
    P 228 228 155 220

    Thanks for your help,
    Tom

    Make sure you compare both at 100% actual pixel size. I have found the screen display resampling to be different between C1 and Photoshop and viewing both at 100% brings them closer.
