Modifying the degree of the cross curve compensation:

The degree of the color correction acts in proportion to the modification of the K
parameter value. If, for example, the value is increased from 1.0 to 1.5, the cross
curve compensation is 50% stronger.

Example: A light gray house with a dark slate roof.

Cross curve behavior:
The colors range from magenta highlights to green shadows. The facade of the
house shows a magenta color cast while the roof is reproduced in a greenish
tone.

Cross curve compensation:
The correction eliminates the color cast of the facade—the important part of the
picture. But the green color cast of the roof becomes stronger in proportion and
appears less “harsh.”

Although the colors themselves cannot be modified, the general impression of
the picture is improved by shifting the neutral point to the parts of the subject that
are important in the picture.
