Histogram tweaking

#1

Post by cshine »

Hello,

A few suggestions to help with histogram tweaking when stacking:

1) The keyboard arrow buttons work great for making small adjustments to the color sliders (click a slider to select then adjust with cursor keys). Could we get the same for the histogram black/mid/light point lines? i.e. select a line then tweak left and right with the cursor keys. Cold fingers and laptop touchpads make tiny adjustments very difficult.

2) At light controlled dark sites we need to use red light shields over our laptop screens which makes it difficult/impossible to distinguish between the RGB lines on the stacking and display histograms. Could we get an option to use embedded symbols or dashed/dotted lines instead of colors for those situations? I imagine that would help color-blind users also.

3) The display histogram is pretty small and can only be made bigger by expanding the entire control panel on the right which takes up a lot of precious screen real estate. Would it be possible to maybe pop that display histo out to it's own window by double click or right click menu option? There would then be enough space to add numeric values per channel similar to the live view histogram, those are very helpful.

Thanks!

Really like the idea of a larger display histogram. If it's possible to pop this out of it's normal home and add the numeric values of the color channels. Could it be possible to allow one to dock (pin) the display histogram much like the Live Stack controls. Maybe even move it to a tab in live stacking?
