Creating Color Tag Windows
Tag windows are used to isolate and identify precise colors in a given image,
providing a visible and retrievable record of color values. With the use of the
Tag Windows tool, ScanWizard Pro lets you pinpoint and “tag” the color on the
image, showing you the original or Before values, as well as the corrected or
After values following the application of image adjustment controls. Within the
Tag windows also are Magic Diamonds that can be used to set the black and
white point for the image, as well as remove a color cast.
To use the tag windows:
1. Click the Tag Windows tool in the Preview window, and click
an area in the preview image.
2. The tag window appears, displaying the x/y positions of the
pixel selected by the Tag Windows tool, as well as the precise color value
of the selected pixel. The color of the selected pixel is shown in the color
strip at the bottom of the tag window.
3. To close the Tag window, click the Close box. To close all tag windows,
press the Option key and click the Close box of any tag window.
4. Take note of the following:
• To set the shadow (black) point, click on a dark area of the image, then
click the Black Magic Diamond in the tag window.
• To set the highlight (white) point, click on a light area, then click the
White Magic Diamond in the tag Window.
• To add a color cast: Click the Tag Windows tool, then click a color in
the image that corresponds to the color cast to be added. Hold down
the Option key, and then add the color cast.
• To remove a color cast, click on the part of the image where the
neutral color cast is, then click the RGB Diamond in the Tag window.
