I must say Silky Pix does a pretty good job on CA/Purple Fringing compared to others I have tried.

How do we explain the purple fringing it left in the Silkypix corners here, though?

Good call my friend, and I only learned about all this last night. Even now (in order to grab you these screenies) I was fumbling my way around. The User Interface really is an unintuitive mess. Can't even find the Lens dialog to see if that also has Chromatic Aberration / Defringe tied to it. I am sure it was there earlier?? Haha, anyways, Silky Pix handles CA quite well, even though it seems to take a while to redraw the screen - at first it seems it doesn't work. It does...

Okay, that looks a lot better!

Did I mention I hate computers? Well it's scenarios such as these being the reason why! You even have to draw a box around the CA in the image. It is definitely a quirky application to use. Then again, Hyper Utility with its Register to Converter Tray. And then some. Maybe it's just y'all. Maybe all this is a Fuji thang

Agreed that the Japanese user interface for both Silkypix and Hyper Utility are less than intuitive. The amazing thing is that HU is a 2007 era product and Silkypix is 2019 era but neither easy for us Westerners to use.
