Light > Levels & Curves

To use the

Levels & Curves tool to edit your images, follow these steps:

1

Navigate to the

Adjust

menu, select the

Light

sub-

menu, and select

Levels & Curves

.

2

Select the channels to be adjusted using the channel

selector. Typically, the RGB option is used when

editing images.

3

Click directly on the curve to add an anchor point

that can be moved and adjusted. By increasing the

slope of the curve you will increase the contrast in

the image. Decreasing the slope of the curve will

decrease the contrast in the image. The anchor

points may also be set to minimize the amount of

change that occurs to a tonal range of the image.

4

Delete any unwanted anchor points by clicking and dragging the anchor point outside of the curve

editor.
