Show clipping on the Curve tool in Photo persona


Recommended Posts

Hi!

I wan't to suggest a feature for the Curves adjustment tool.

Long story short I've started to shoot color film photography and use affinity to convert the negative film into positive ones for then further process, but in the guide i'm following for converting negatives, the guy uses Photoshop. you drag the diffrent RGB channels before they start clipping, but in affinity its hard to know/see when it starts clipping.. you can eyeball it but you wont get the best results. I plan on doing this process with my film for finer control over the negative converstion alot.. So this little detail to the curves tool would help a ton!!

so my suggestion is to add a clip warning in the curves tool ( in RGB mode, clipping for the Master, red, green, and blue channels), much like the clip warning holding down alt in the levels tool 

 

Cheers // Peter 😄

(here is the guide im following if anyone is curious, great one! https://www.alexburkephoto.com/blog/2019/10/16/manual-inversion-of-color-negative-film )

If you work with the Develop Persona then clipping alarms are at the top right. Drag the Tones tab out of the panel on the right and resize as convenient

Thanks for pointing it out! but first of its destructive, would have to make a merge of all layers and use that, but then if im unhappy with it I cant tweak it without having to redo it.. And tbh, that yellow is hard to spot, but maybe there is a setting to change the clipping tone color? Anyhow I still thin it would be a neat thing to see clipping in the curve adjustment in photo persona, If you can come up with another workaround with the curve tool that would be much apprichiated 😎
