@@cosgrovescosmos I watched all the 2-minute tutorial and other video of yours as well as red some article on your website and I have to say that you definetly are one of the best resources for learning to use Pixinsight and not only! Greatly appreciate what you are doing and I'm really impressed by your skills, knowledge and way of explaining things. Thanks a lot and please keep doing those videos and writing articles.
Thank you, Andrea - I can't tell you how much I appreciate such feedback. When creating these kinds of things - especially given that this kind of thing is outside my wheelhouse - it's hard to judge how useful it is. I will certainly keep working at it! During the winter months - when my skies are solid clouds, I tend to work on tech and how-to articles, and when the skies finally clear, I work on imaging projects...
You are most welcome! The Linear adjustment curve is so much easier to work with when trying to be precise with the areas modified. It took me a while to realize that was the better way to go!
Glad to hear that - Photoshop has a tool that allows you to adjust saturation by hue, and I always found that to be quite helpful - I was glad when I discovered this capability to do the same. Thanks, Pat
I gave up on this tool quite awhile ago, but your explanation is leading me to give it another try. I’ve been going over to Photoshop and using the color range tool in Camera Raw, but I might not have to now.
I find myself using in in almost every image I process now. I also do a final set of tweaks in Photoshop but these are small as the computational precision of Photoshop is much reduced compared to PI.
This is one of the most undervaluated tools in Pixinsight I think. Thanks for making me aware of it!
Thanks, Andrea - I agree with you - a very powerful and practical tool!

Thank you very much. I never knew about the linear adjustment. I tried it, and that’s gonna be my go to method.
You are most welcome!

Outstanding. That tool has always been a mystery. Not any more!
