Applying Adjustment Presets
Applying an adjustment preset to an image is as simple as selecting the image and
choosing the adjustment preset from the Preset Action pop-up menu. When you apply
an adjustment preset to an image, the adjustment controls and parameter values
update to reflect the settings saved in the adjustment preset. If you prefer, you can use
an adjustment preset as a starting point in your image adjustment workflow, and then
fine-tune the adjustment after it’s applied to the image.
To apply an adjustment preset to an image:
1 Select an image.
2 In the Adjustments inspector or the Adjustments pane of the Inspector HUD, choose
the preset you want to apply to the image from the Preset Action pop-up menu for
the adjustment.
The adjustment preset is applied to the image, and a checkmark appears next to the
preset in the Preset Action pop-up menu.
Choose an adjustment
preset from the Preset
Action pop-up menu.
