I'm pretty sure Emil refers to the Color drawing /layer mode and the way that it tends to 'burn out' colors -- the result of applying a colorization is often far more vivid than could reasonably be expected; Basically the same as the bug regarding improvement of Color mode cf. Photoshop. A few theories have been advanced on how Photoshop does it; they both agree that an RGB-based application such as the current HSL application is incorrect, and IIRC argue for either LAB or YIQ/YCbCr based color application. In my opinion LAB is higher quality, however YIQ/YCbCr get the job done with acceptable quality and higher speed. I can do some visual comparisons sometime soon if needed. > Exactly what do you mean by "color mode" here? > > Do you mean that the default RGB -> CMYK conversion produces too > saturated colors? > > Best regards, > Martin _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
