Displaying a Pixel Grid and Color Values
You can have the Centered Loupe display the image as a grid of pixels that shows the
actual pixel composition of the image, allowing you to see the individual pixel values at
high magnification (400% or higher). You can also set the Centered Loupe to display
readings of the color values of the image, showing the RGB, CMYK, HSL, or HSB values
chosen for the Color meter.
Note: The Show Color Value in Loupe command has moved from the Add Adjustments
pop-up menu (in the Adjustments Inspector and Adjustments HUD) to the View menu.
To set the Centered Loupe to show a pixel grid:
1 Set the Centered Loupe’s magnification to 400% or higher.
For more information about setting the Centered Loupe’s Magnification, see “ Changing
the Size and Magnification of the Centered Loupe ” on page 6.
2 Choose View > Show Pixel Grid in Loupe, or choose Pixel Grid from the Centered Loupe
pop-up menu.
To turn off this feature, choose the menu item again.
Note: You can also show the pixel grid using the regular Loupe by choosing
View > Show Pixel Grid in Loupe.
