Color Correction tool

The Color Wheel allows you to remove a color cast from an image.

The Picker lets you pick a known neutral gray shade in your image and 

adjusts it to a closer, truer gray. The grays in an image may have a 

particular color cast which can be verified through the color information in 

the Info window. A gray that tends towards a reddish tint, for instance, will 

have its R value skewed higher than the G and B values. By using the 

Picker on a gray area, the gray is adjusted so that the RGB values become 

approximately equal.

This shows the angle of the pointer on the Color Wheel as measured in 

degrees, and a value can also be entered directly in the edit box to move 

the cursor to any point in the Wheel.

Example: 0° corresponds to the color red on the Wheel, 60° to the color 

yellow, 120° to the color green, 180° to the color cyan, 240° to the color 

blue, and 300° to the color magenta.
