Description Dik Takken 2007-10-22 11:18:38 UTC
Version:           0.9.2 (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
OS:                Linux

The Adjust Curves plugin would be immensely more powerful when you can apply the curve on individual channels in the HSV and HSL color spaces. So, apart from R, G and B, there should be four additional channels: H, S, V and L. 

Having both L and V is a key feature here, because HSL reduces saturation as you darken the image, while HSV increases saturation as you darken the image. In case you have a bright washed-out sky that needs adjusting, you adjust the V channel in HSV space. In case you have a dark lifeless foreground, you adjust the L channel in HSL space.

Having both a color space dropdown menu and a channel dropdown menu would be even better.

Image Editor G'MiC-Qt tool with Colors/Curves filter also to adjust HSV or HSL color spaces.
