the Tint color wheels.
Select the White Tint
eyedropper to activate
the Loupe.
The pointer changes to the Loupe, showing a magnified view of the target area. By default, the
Loupe is set to magnify the image to 100 percent (full size). If necessary, you can increase the
magnification of the Loupe by choosing an increased magnification level from the Loupe pop-up
menu. For more information, see
on page 181.

Position the target area of the Loupe over the lightest (white) pixels in the image, then click.
The tint (hue and saturation) of the white values in the image is set to remove the color cast in
the highlights.
Important:
Make sure that there are no dark pixels in the target area of the Loupe. Dark pixels
in the target area can skew the White Tint calculation, making the image look different than
intended. A simple way to avoid errant dark pixels is to increase the magnification of the Loupe
by pressing Shift–Command–Plus Sign (+).
