• If you set the sliders to a value other than None, the desired adjustment will be applied when-
ever automatic highlight and shadow settings are used.
Another way to adjust gray balance automatically is by using the Guide function in the Gray Bal-
ance window. In this case, the entire image is adjusted, not just the highlights and shadows.
• The adjustment is based on an analysis of the individual image as well as your specification of
how big a change you want to apply.
• Even if you adjust gray balance automatically, you can still check the result in the feedback
window and make any manual adjustments you want to.
• For a standard adjustment of the gray balance, set the Guide menu to 100%.
• Choose a lower value if you want gray balance to be changed to a lesser degree, and a higher
value if you want it to be changed to a greater degree.
• If you do not want automatic gray balance adjustment at all, set the Guide menu to None.

shadow settings for an image by using Undo, Revert to Original, or
Reset, you will also be undoing the cast reduction.
