Raymond Larabie Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 This isn't a bug but a change that could improve workflow. In Affinity Photo, I can open the channels tab, click Composite red and see the red channel represented in monochrome. If I hit ctrl-M to open the curves dialog or ctrl-L for levels, it's set to edit Master (RGB). But since I already clicked the red channel, it means I want to edit the red channel. I can manually switch from master to composite red. But it's an extra step I need to do every time I want to tweak curves on a channel. Part of the workflow I'm used to involves hopping from channel to channel, making tweaks to the curves, clicking reset to see how it looks. I suspect that it's a rare case that someone would select a composite channel and want to edit Master (RGB). You can't clearly see the effects of what you're doing except on the other channels anyway. The ideal situation would be to have all those things synced: click on a composite channel and that channel gets automatically selected in curves and levels. It would also be handy if clicking reset on the channels tab switched curves and levels to Master. I think this behavior would make the channels, curves and levels easier for beginners to grasp. It would certainly make my workflow quite a bit faster. Alfred 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
