Setting Tone Adjustment

Setting Tone Adjustment

The Tone Adjustment option works like Brightness and

Contrast, but it gives you more control. You can adjust

the brightness of three tone ranges in your image or

selection: the highlights, the midtones, and the shadow

areas.

Follow these steps to set tone adjustment:

1

Select the area you want to change, or make sure no

area is selected if you want to change the entire

image.

2

Choose Tone Adjustment

Tone Adjustment

from the Enhance menu.

The Tone Adjustment dialog box appears:

The mapping curve, which initially looks like a

straight line, shows the tone adjustments you

make. The horizontal axis represents the

original brightness level (from dark on the left

to light on the right), and the vertical axis

represents the new brightness level.

The histogram represents the brightness of the

image or selected area. The horizontal axis

represents the brightness level (from dark on

the left to light on the right), and the vertical

axis represents the number of pixels.
