Hello everyone.

    Do you also have a correction layer dealing with, for example, other spots?

    Does it happen at all zoom levels?

    On which RAW files did you apply the spot removal tool?

    I'm having similar experience with .rw2 RAWs. On Pentax DNGs or tiffs I don't have this kind of problems.

    I'm in contact with the P1 support. However the problem couldn't be solved yet, because the uploading of the corresponding EIP was so far faulty.

    Did you start a support case as well?

    The squares spot tool fault has been added to the bug list at P1. At least for Panasonic RAWs. Are you using Panasonic RAWs as well?
    If not , you should start a support case too.

    I'm having the same problem with spot removal on Nikon D700 and D800E files.

    Here's an example with the dust spot, after spot removal is applied and then after the tool is no longer active.

    The spot tool seems to work fine when there aren't any local adjustments.

    A couple of workarounds at this stage:

    1. Use a heal/clone local adjustment to remove spots (not ideal when we're limited to 10 layers).
    2. Process the file and use the spot removal tool on the processed 16-bit TIFF.

    I guess a third approach would be to map out dust spots with LCC but that's not going to work for older images without a reference frame.
