Shadows and highlights, graded apart

A colourist's move: the shadows take one tint and the highlights another, so a cool blue in the darks can sit against a warm amber in the lights. Used gently, it gives a picture a finished, graded feel.

Three ways to split

Luma Split keeps the brightness exactly as it was and only changes the colour, so the tonal structure can't drift. Perceptual sets the tint by lightness rather than raw colour values, which keeps the tints even across the image. Three-Way adds a separate midtone control, the lift, gamma and gain of a colour grading panel.

Every option, from the app

Generated from the registry the app publishes, so this list is whatever the current build actually ships — not a copy of it.
