My main concern is regarding the Value layer mode since the name Value is tightly coupled with how it is implemented. I figured there might be some esoteric use case I'm not thinking about where this implementation characteristic matters. Using CIE LCH Lightness will make the layer mode be based on perception of lightness instead of value in HSV, and for the purposes I can come up with, using CIE LCH Lightness will always be better. For the user, the only difference will be a different name for a layer mode (Value -> Lightness) and to my knowledge more intuitive results. / Martin _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
