Controls
Presets
To select a gel, pick one from the Presets window. If you would like to view presets from a different category, use the pop-up menu at the top left of the Presets window.
Color
Color
The Color parameter sets the color through the use of a standard color picker.
Opacity
Sets the opacity of the color filter.
Preserve Highlights
Preserves the white areas of the image.
Exposure Compensation
Exposure Compensation adds back the brightness loss as a result of the gel application.
Grad
Gels can optionally use a gradient that limits where the filter is applied. Grad is the transition area between the colored portion and the original image. Its direction, corners and size can be adjusted. Go to the
Grad section of Common Filter Controls to see how the Grad controls work.
