Colour Tools
The colour tools are used to control image colours in several ways.
Color Menu provides a variety of options for modifying an image’s colour settings. Let us explore
these options:
Ð ÐColor Balance: By modifying the levels of cyan, magenta, and yellow as well as the ranges of
red, green, and blue, it alters and maintains the colour balance of the current image.
Ð Ð Color Temperature: It can be used to fix the red cast in pictures shot in
incandescent light with the camera set to daylight, or even the bluish cast in photos taken in
gloomy conditions.
Ð Ð Hue-Chroma: Hue-Chroma can be adjusted, and light saturation can be used to increase the
number of colour pixels in an image.

Ð ÐColorize Tool: The active layer or selection becomes a greyscale image seen through coloured
glass when using the Colorize tool.
Ð ÐThreshold: The image is converted to black and white using the threshold effect.
