My first Lab specific filter. All the rage thanks to Dan. Uh oh, I feel a rant coming on.
Lab mode is good, but the tools are so lacking. So I did my own version of Levels that is geared towards Lab mode. Only manipluates a and b, so it's minor. But don't be fooled.
Yes, Lab mode - will not work in RGB.
- First two sliders are offset sliders, basically colour balance along ab
- Next four sliders are 'saturation' sliders and only work for the given half of given ab
- Last two sliders are post post-colour balance like the first two
Having two sets of offset sliders may seem redundant, but order of operations is important.
I threw in some visual aides so that the sliders should be easier to understand at glance.
