I realize there's a couple posts already out there on this but they're not helpful at all. The administrator replies are lacking any useful information about the issue. I know I'm not the only one with this problem based on a quick search on Google. Let's get this one cleared up concisely please with detailed actionable responses to users having the issue. Thank you ahead of time.
Upon fresh install of ML 2.3 onto a freshly formatted SD card as per PDF instructions onto a 550D with firmware 1.0.9 installed, everything seems to work just peachy. Very nicely done work so thank you to all involved! However, the crop marks do not function. Validated their placement and file name structure in the folder as delivered with the ML 2.3 update against published PDF instructions on crop mark usage. All is at it should be according to documentation. As a test, I copied the crop mark image files into the root folder on the SD card in case there was some kind of read issue as earlier versions of ML simply had crop mark image files dumped into the root. This doesn't work on the 550D. Lastly, a repeat process of a fresh install into a fully formatted card was completed and does not resolve the issue either.
Some users have reported pressing various buttons on the camera itself that somehow magically makes the crop marks appear. I tried this as well to no avail.
Verified that Global Draw is on in conjunction with Crop Marks set to on (although it reports N/A when set on). Tested Global Draw in all of its available settings. Problem persists.
If there is a resolution to this, please let us know and perhaps update the UserGuide PDF to point out specific steps as they relate to getting crop marks to work consistently as in previous version of ML.
Thank you kindly for anyone's help on this issue! Magic Lantern is an AMAZING tool and I'm a huge fan!
Best,
Tobias
