The PSE image is slightly cropped compared to Luminar Neo

I'm using Luminar Neo both stand alone and as a plugin with PSE2023.

Recently I've noticed that the PSE images are slightly cropped compared to the same image file displayed in Luminar Neo stand alone.

Is this cropping a part of the way in which PSE is setup?

I've had some advice from Technical Support and it would seem I have a rogue file. Other files I viewed seemed to OK.

The one takeaway is in the Raw conversion window, top right, Crop should be set to Full.

Thanks anyway for your time.

Glad you were able to sort it out.

I wasn't able to download your file but I did check a raw file of my own.  Interestingly, there was a 12x12 difference in the pixel resolution of the file stated in the metadata available in Elements and Neo. 

 

But I'm not sure this would account for the cropping shown in your screenshot.  As I suggested earlier, could the difference be the magnification of the prevew on screen?  On my monitor, I observed a difference in the Fit to Screen magnification rendered by each program.  If this doesn't explain your issue, can you post (in the forum) a screenshot of each maximized program window with the raw file preview magnification set to Fit to Screen.

Attached is the camera data and screens shoots for both programs.

You will see the image size is the same in both programs.

Can you post the original file so that I can try to reproduce what you are seeing.  The cropping appears to be an issue of  preview magnification.

This is the original raw file.
