Change LUT & keep opacity


Recommended Posts

Every time I change LUT the opacity resets. It would be great to be able to change LUT just pressing up&down arrow keys and keeping the opacity set.

I'm not sure what you mean by "changing the LUT" by pressing the Up/Down arrow keys. Those keys don't do anything for me while the LUT adjustment dialog is open except cycle fields within the single adjustment. And they do not affect the opacity, unless I go "down" several times and select the Opacity field.

Can you provide more of a description of what you want, or what you're doing? Or perhaps a video?

Hi Walt, it's not stritctly necessary, it would just make the LUT selection easier.

I tried to make a GIF you can see here https://share.getcloudapp.com/xQu7eJYx

As you can see, if I want to change LUT I have to go on the corresponding LUT with the mouse, and click on it. Besides everytime I change LUT, the opacity I set previosly reset to 100%.

So, from my point of view, would be awesome to:

  1. Cycle the LUTs in my list just pressing up/down arrow buttons (without using the mouse)
  2. Change the LUT keeping the layer opacity to the value I've configured.

Thanks for the GIF and explanation.

I believe that's happening now because what you're basically creating a new LUT adjustment with each selection and it completely replaces the old one. Thus it also replaces the Opacity that was part of the old LUT adjustment layer the Blend Mode and any other settings changes you've made.

I can see how your suggested enhancement could be useful.
