Custom Gamma Curve dialog
The Custom Gamma Curve dialog is accessed by clicking the Edit.. button in the Gamma Curve section of the Edit
Calibration Target dialog.
Advanced response curves can be selected from presets or custom curves can be created by importing a table of
values.
The following preset curves are available:
sRGB - A curve based on the sRGB specication that includes the offset, transition and slope components.
L* - A curve based on L* in the Lab specication. The L* curve is intended to be more perceptually uniform
than a simple gamma value curve.
NTSC Video - A curve based on the SMPTE-170M specication for NTSC that includes the offset, transition
and slope components.
SMPTE-240M - A curve based on the SMPTE-240M specication for 1125 line HD video that includes the
offset, transition and slope components.
Custom curves can be created and imported into SpectraView by creating a text le with a list of numerical values. The
text le must conform to the following specications:
Must contain between 3 and 256 values.
Each value must be on a separate line.
The rst value must be 0.
Values must be monotonically increasing.
When imported, the values will be automatically scaled and interpolated to create a Target curve.
