Operation Manual

2 In the Vibrancy area of the Adjustments inspector or the Adjustments pane of the Inspector
HUD, modify the Vibrancy adjustment by specifying the amount of the adjustment you
want to apply to the image using the Amount slider and value slider.
The previously applied Vibrancy adjustment is modified.
Why Not Use the Enhance Adjustment?
You can always brush the entire Enhance adjustment’s parameter settings in to or out
of an image. However, brushing the Enhance adjustment on an image applies the
Contrast, Definition, Saturation, Vibrancy, and Tint parameter settings. You use the Quick
Brush equivalents when you need to apply each of these adjustments in different ways
to different parts of the photo.
Working with the Blur Quick Brush Controls
You use the Blur Quick Brush adjustment to soften the area of the image the adjustment
is brushed on.
