When called for the first time, you can find in the middle of the color
circle three dots that overlay each other. These are the selectors for the
high-, mid- and low-tones of the image. Each can be selected individ-
ually and positioned anywhere in the circle. To select a particular tone
selector when they are all located in the center of the circle, click some-
where inside the color circle with the mouse. Each click will bring an-
other selector to the foreground.
When positioning a tone selector in the color circle, it will cause a color
correction of the respective tones towards the color the selector is
dragged to. The farther away from the center the selector is positioned,
the more the saturation of that particular color increases. For example,
if an image is too blue, then you would drag one or all three selectors
in the opposite direction of that color, toward yellow. In case you want
to pronounce a color, you would add more of the same color by drag-
ging the selectors toward the side of the circle that provides this color.
The button RESET sets the color wheel of the primary color correction
back to its default state.
This is the high-tone selector. It will adjust the
brighter colors of the image while the luminance
remains constant.
This is the mid-tone selector. It will adjust the aver-
age colors of the image.
This is the low-tone selector. It will adjust the dark-
er colors of the image while the luminance remains
constant.
