Request : local contrast as live filter


Recommended Posts

I would like to have the Local Contrast from the tonal value persona as a live filter in the Photo persona. The transition into the tonal value persona breaks the nondestructive workflow.

Can you not use the Adjustment Layer Brightness and Contrast for this?

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 
Affinity Designer 2.5.5 | Affinity Photo 2.5.5 | Affinity Publisher 2.5.5 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

Local Contrast is more like unsharp masking than brightness and contrast.

And Unsharp Mask is available in Live Filters, if it's close enough in function to do what you want.

@walt.farrell,I would not have asked for this feature if I was satisfied with Unsharp Mask as a local contrast substitute.
