Color Correction/Hue Shift

The Hue Shift operator is a powerful tool used to transform colors. Either by changing the hue, the saturation, or the luminance. 

The operator features a color range selector, which selects which colors to process.

Below is an example where Hue Shift operators have been applied on the red.

  • Tolerance (degrees) - hue tolerance (degrees)

  • Softness (degrees) - hue softness

  • Hue transform (-180 to 180) - hue transform (degrees)

  • Saturation transform (-100 to 100) - saturation transform (%)

  • Luminance transform (-100 to 100) - luminance transform (%)

Hint!

Use the color picker tool in the Preview window toolbar to get the hue of a selected pixel. Knowing the hue might make it easier to work with the hue operator.
