Personal tip on Clipped Pixels colours and threshold
Posted: March 22nd, 2020, 7:47 am
It may seem a trivial issue, but I was struggling with the intuitive set of colours for a bit.
Since v. 8.0.56, there is a possibility to set two different clipped pixels warning colours for each, highlights and shadows in Settings/Cllipped Pixels.
The first set of colours indicates that at least one or two (but not three) RGB channels being at or below the threshold value for shadows and at or above the threshold value for highlights. The second set of colours indicate that all three RGB channels being below or above the thresholds, respectively.
The first condition is less strict than the second one (i.e. blowing all 3 channels would already trigger the 1 or 2 channels warning), but probably more important practically.
While any combination of warning colours and threshold values may work, I found these settings intuitive and easy to interpret.
