Color range control
The mechanism of defining the specific boundaries of color modification within a digital image. This involves limiting or expanding the scope of adjustments to specific hues, saturations, or luminance levels to prevent unintended color shifts in adjacent pixels.
Core Mechanisms
- point-color: Targeted adjustment via specific color sampling.
- color-mixer: Broad-spectrum adjustments using hue, Saturation, and Luminance parameters.
- Variance: A tool for regulating the breadth of influence for a specific color sample.
Recent Developments
