Color Casts
Sometimes colors just look wrong, especially when one color dominates the picture
(called a color cast). Soap 2's Auto Enhance button can sometimes fix these kinds of
flaws, with a single click. Try it to see what it does for your picture. However, it doesn't
work well on images that don't have black and white areas.
If photos were correctly exposed or don't have a color cast,
the results of using the Auto Enhance button may be
minimal. If the photo doesn't have areas of black and white,
it can make the image look worse.
To Auto Enhance a photo:
1 If needed, drag the photo you want to enhance from the Transporter to the working
window.
2 Use the Zoom and Pan tools if needed to view a specific area of the photo.
3 Choose Image menu > QuickColor.
4 Click Auto Enhance, then move the Pan control around to see changes to other parts
of the image.
5 Adjust the results with the color tools if needed.
6 Click Apply to apply those settings to the picture, or click Reset to cancel.
Color lightness and darkness, color hues, color intensity, and how dark and light tones
appear all combine for overall color.
