What each control does
Section titled “What each control does”- Hue counts degrees around the colour wheel.
- Saturation adjusts saturation, -100 is greyscale, and +100 doubles the saturation.
- Lightness adjusts brightness.
- Master applies to every pixel. Reds, Yellows, Greens, Cyans, Blues and Magentas apply to that range, and by how saturated the pixel already is.
- Mix: how much of the result replaces the original.
- Matte and Invert drive the strength of the effect from another layer’s brightness; see Effects.
