Scopes¶
Histogram¶
This mode displays a graph showing the distribution of color information in the pixels of the currently displayed image. The X-axis represents values of pixel, from 0 to 1 (or 0 to 255), while the Y-axis represents the number of pixels in that tonal range. A predominantly dark image would have most of its information toward the left side of the graph.
Use this mode to balance out the tonal range in an image. A well balanced image should a nice smooth distribution of color values.
- Luma
- Shows the luminosity of an image.
- RGB
- Shows the RGB channels stacked on top of each other.
- R/G/B/A
- Depending on the channel you choose the scope will show the appropriate channel.
- Show line
- Displays lines rather then filled shapes.
Waveform¶
- Waveform Opacity
- Opacity of the points.
- Waveform Mode
- Luma
- ToDo.
- Parade
- The RGB channels are shown side-by-side.
- Red Green Blue
- Shows the RGB channels overlaid as a “Full color” waveform. It is useful for color grading.
Vectorscope¶
- Vectorscope Opacity
- Opacity of the points.
Sample Line¶
The Sample Line scope is the same as the Histogram but allows you to get the sample data from a line.
- Sample Line
- Used to draw a line to use to read the sample data from.
Scope Samples¶
- Full Sample
- Sample every pixel.
- Accuracy
- Proportion of original image source pixel lines to sample.
