Color Correction

Note: The Pixel Analyzer tab should not be confused with the PixelAnalyzer node, found
in the Other tab. For more information, see “

The PixelAnalyzer Node

” on page 631.

Using the Pixel Analyzer is very similar to sampling color values with the Color Picker.
When you drag across an image in the Viewer with the pointer, the values update in
the Pixel Analyzer. You can usually use the default Pixel Analyzer settings.

Click the color swatch that you want to examine—Current, Minimum, Average, or
Maximum color value. You can toggle between the different color swatches repeatedly
without having to drag again in the Viewer. The values appear in the value fields below
the color swatches.

Since the Pixel Analyzer keeps the examined pixels in memory, if you switch images in
the same Viewer, the Pixel Analyzer updates its values based on the new image.
Because of this, you can compare images or perform color corrections, as the color
correction constantly updates the Analyzer.
