Black & White Makes the image monochrome based on the color chosen in the Hue and Satu-
ration parameters. Adjust the Mix parameter to restore some amount of the
original color, if desired.
◆ HINT: The “Black &White” effect, with a carefully chosen source color, often
gives a better result than using the “Hue & Saturation” effect to desaturate
the image.
Contrast & Brightness Adjusts the contrast and brightness of the image. This effect uses a spline curve
to adjust these values, similar to how you may use the “Curves” command in
Photoshop, thereby avoiding clipping in bright or dark areas.
Keep Color Makes the image mostly monochrome, while retaining a certain color range.
First select the color to keep by clicking the color swatch or by adjusting the
Hue, Saturation and Brightness tween tracks. Then adjust the Tolerance and
Softness until you achieve the desired effect.
