Auto Levels in Adjust Panel

Has anyone noticed that the Ajust Panel in iWeb has an 'Auto Levels' button at the bottom, but the same Adjust Panel in iPhoto 06 does not?
I normally run all my photos through Photoshop, just to use the auto -levels, -color and -contrast tools (I'm slightly color blind, so PS helps me at least be consistent!). This Auto Levels button would be a great thing to see in iPhoto's Adjust Panel, especially considering that iPhoto is the image app in the Suite, not iWeb.
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4)

Has anyone noticed that the Ajust Panel in iWeb has
an 'Auto Levels' button at the bottom, but the same
Adjust Panel in iPhoto 06 does not?
iPhoto has the Magic Wand button which does the same...

  • Tiny Levels Adjustment Panel histogram.

    The histogram, in the Layers Adjustments Panel in E9, is now only 166 pixels wide.  Since there are 256 levels in an 8 bit image about 1/3 of the levels are not shown.  In addition to the histogram being incomplete the adjustment sliders are now more difficult to use as they too are reduced in length.
    To rub it in, the full extent of this anomaly only applies to the Levels Panel accessed as an adjustment layer.  Clicking on Enhance>Adjust Lighting>Levels… brings up something like the old full size, 256 pixel wide panel. Well it nearly brings up a full 256 pixel wide histogram except for the fact that a new, since E7,  border round the histogram now occupies the 0 and 255 levels leaving only 254 levels displayed not 256. 
    Why two different tools for the same job?
    Why are both now incomplete?
    Why change something that worked?
    The image above shows a histogram as displayed in the Histogram Panel and the histogram of the same image as displayed in a Levels Adjustment Panel.    A slight change of zoom has introduced some distortion but the wide gaps in the left hand image are as seen in the original.

    That's a good idea in retrospect I did put it in the wrong place.  I really just want to sound off about E9s "new" features.
    I recently gave a talk to my local Camera Club Digital Group on the new features in the Elements 9's editor.   In preparing the talk I came across irritating new features and changes that I normally put up with but were becoming a pain as I reworked examples.  In the end I had a much longer list of irritating new features than the list of new editing features that Photoshop proudly advertise.  It just seems to me that there is an unreasonable number of careless programming errors, if not errors then irrational decisions, that were not features of earlier versions of Elements. 
    After using Es 2,3,4,5,6 and 7 I just feel that E9 was a rip off Layer Masks or no Layer Masks.

  • In PSE9 is there a way to enlarge the levels adjustment panel and effects panel for viewing?

    In PSE9 is there a way to enlarge the levels adjustment panel for viewing?  The histogram is so small. 
    I know we can use the arrow keys to change the settings for the histogram, but it is just the overall view of it I would like to see bigger. 
    I think with PSE8 the effects panel could be dragged out of the panel bin and made longer AND wider, but in PSE9 it can only be made longer when dragged outside the panel bin.
    And I think the whole panel bin could be dragged wider or narrower.

    not really apart from changing the resolution, but theres a a couple of things you can do
    you can change the "minimum font size" in Safari (and other apps) in the General tab - this will enlarge any fonts to the minimum size you specify if they are under that size
    the features in the accessiblilty section of system preferences might be worth a look as well
    the pinch zoom feature is also useful
    unfortunately there isn't a 1-button setting somewhere that can do this, because apps, documents, web pages, images etc all work independently from each other, they use different font types, different zoom levels, etc. You can't just enlarge them all in sync without content getting jumbled up/distorted. if enlarge an app/page/document and get it looking good, on the next one you would probably need to zoom in at a different level for it to look right

  • Adjustment Panel Auto Hide Configuration

    Hi,
    in Lightroom 3, it is very easy to accidentally hide the adjustment panels when trying to scroll them up or down.
    This happens when one attempts to click on the adjustment panel slider but instead accidentally hits the area immediately to its right, referred to as "Adjustment Panel Auto Hide Area" in the following discussion. This area shows a little arrow and is used to hide and show the adjustment panels.
    Usability improvement suggestions:
    1) Allow the user to disable the auto-hide feature of the adjustment panel via Edit / Preferences... / Interface / Adjustment Panel.
    2) Dito, but configuration of the auto-hide feature via a new entry in the context-sensitive menu of the Adjustment Panel Auto Hide Area. The menu could offer a new checkbox "Auto Hide Toggle". If enabled, the current default behaviour is active and a left click in the Adjustment Panel Auto Hide Area shows or hides the Adjustment Panel. If disabled, a left click has no effect.
    In my workflow, I use two screens. One screen shows the image in full size, the other one shows the various adjustment panels which I never switch off. I just scroll them up or down. Being able to toggle the current default behaviour would make the product more usable to me.
    Thanks
    Christian

    That is great!! I have done every steps of the tutorial but I have a problem:
    When I hide the playbar, the animation is paused and when the mouse is over the playbar , the animation continue.
    What do you think about it?

  • Auto level with temporal smoothening not found in PE13

    The manual of Adobe Premiere Elements 13 describes on page 133 that Auto levels can be done with temporal smoothening as an effect. I currently do auto levels with the adjustments menu. But then the level seems to be adjusted for each single picture causing sometimes colored flickering. For some scenes, this causes really an impressive appearance, for some color flickering which looks like outdated old films...
    The problem is just that I can't find this effect described in the menu. According to the description it should do exactly what I need. But I can find an effect called auto level.
    The reason why I tried this is to correct the colors of my underwater film. The colors are shifted. Auto level mostly compensates this.
    I'm running PE13 on OS X 10.10.
    Thanks for your help !

    Temporal smoothing remains in 13/13.1, at least in 13/13.1 Windows.
    I am strictly an Elements Windows user, and there is temporal smoothing option associated with auto levels in Premiere Elements 11, 12, and 13/13.1 Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 64 bit.
    Please see the following which specially answers that question
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE11&12: AutoLevels/Temporal Smoothing
    Quick summary....for Expert workspace
    Adjust Tab
    Adjustments Palette
    Lighting Panel expanded and its AutoLevels option
    Then look to the Timeline video clip rubberband....right click Opacity in the Timeline clip's title bar, see Auto Level choice and its temporal smoothing option there. (Please refer to link for details).
    Please let us know if this Premiere Elements 13/13.1 Windows opportunity is available to you on Premiere Elements 13/13.1 Mac.
    Thank you.

  • Auto levels on import preset

    I tried a search to see how you can get AP3 to do an "auto levels" adjustment during import, but I am not sure how to do it. If I do an "auto" adjust on an image and then create a preset, does AP3 apply the levels based on that particular file used, or will it actually look at each file individually and make the correct adjustment for each file during the import? Or is there a different way to correctly apply auto levels during import?
    Thanks in advance.

    this is fairly easy. the only thing you have to do is create an adjustment preset to do just that.
    steps:
    1-click on an image and go to the Adjustments tab
    2-apply auto-levels on that image (and nothing else)
    3-in the Presets drop box, choose Save as Preset (Aperture is intelligent enough to remember you've applied the Auto-levels)
    4-in the preset management box, give it some name
    5-on following imports, just apply this preset to your images on import and voilà.

  • Auto level entire image based on selection?

    I'm scanning some old magazine pages. But because some clippings are irregular shaped, the bright white of the scanner lid is in the image. So this throws off Auto Levels & Auto Contrast. If I take the marquee tool to select a portion of the image, is there a way to auto level the entire document based on the smaller marquee selected area?

    Hmmm... I must be missing a step. Help me out here...
    I'm making a selection of the area I want to use for auto levels. I click on the Levels adjustment layer, it creates an Adjustment layer with layer mask. I option-click Auto in the Levels palette -- and it brings up a dialog box. Now what?

  • Adjustment panel disappears in

    I am new to CS4, upgraded from PSE8.  WinXP Pro.  I am going through "Classroom In A Book" and learning things I really like.  Tonight, I start the program and hit Alt-Ctrl-Shift and reset everything.  I open up Bridge and start on a RAW photo like I have been doing the last few days.  I start with opening Histogram and then go to the Adjustment Panel.  If I open LEVELS, I can use that function only as the Adjustment Panel disappears.  After completing the task and hitting SAVE, there is no Adjustment Panel to be found anywhere.  I have to close CS4 and reboot using the Alt-Ctrl-Shift command and then the Adjustment Panel reappears when I open a photo.  I can not find this problem anywhere on the Adobe site...any ideas or HELP out there???  I appreciate anything!

    Hi Wroger,
    Your mistake is in "closing" the levels window.  You are actually closing the adjustments palette.
    When you have finished the levels adjustment and want to make another adjustment, just click on the little arrow on the bottom left hand corner of the adjustments panel, and all the other adjustments will be available.

  • Auto smart fix, auto levels, auto contrast Where on cs4

    I have photoshop cs4 and I cannot find the Auto smart fix, auto levels, and auto contrast nor the adjustment for each that I had with photoshop elements.

    It's not a matter of version numbers.  Photoshop has never had anything called "Auto Smart Fix".
    Photoshop Elements usually contains various watered-down "preset" options for beginner users as opposed to more advanced users using the Full PS.  Options such as the Red-eye Reduction Tool and if you go far enough back Page Curl in Photoshop LE are examples.
    If you are refering to versions as the difference between PS Elements and PS or PS Extended then you are correct they do not have "Auto Smart Fix".
    Auto Levels and Auto Contrast are available under the IMAGE Menu.  However it looks as though Auto Levels has been renamed as "Auto Tone" in CS4.  Prior to this it was in fact "Auto Levels" through most version numbers of Photoshop.

  • 2.1.4 and Auto-Levels

    Every Time... and I mean every time that I update Aperture I seem to lose the Auto-Levels Function to one degree or another.
    The markers in the levels panel will shift either all the way left or all the way right resulting in a totally black or totally white photo. The histogram disappears at the same time.
    I am getting very tired of these constant upgrade bugs.. is this a professional application or not...
    (I have not upgraded to Snow Leopard yet)

    Have a look at this thread: I am running aperture 2.1.4 and am considering purchasing the latest version. will my photos, projects, and folders etc. transfer over automatically ?
    i.e. at the post of Mark Jost at the end of the thread.
    It looks like you might run into problems.

  • Auto Levels and other adjustments

    Just a small question..will auto levels and other adjustments degrade a photo quality. I most of the times use auto levels before developing a photo and I want to make sure that I keep the same quality of the original image after using adjustments.
    Thanks in advance.

    If you  have limited skills-two schools of thought.   Quality will be better if you fine tune- if you put in a little more time-learn full Photoshop, but not everyone has the time-interest or capibilities.  
    1) If U R only WANT to make basic changes--check out the IMAGE drop-down in PS.  You can auto adjust -Color-Tone and Contrast by  just clicking on the drop-down.
    Are you asking this Q in order becaus you have limited time put into your images?  If so, then your capibilities should drive your actions.   Go auto but know with digital photography, anyone can take a great shot.
    2)  If you want to do more with your phontography, learn more about Photoshop CS. 8 months ago-I thought I understood PS. Then I got serious about it. The difference is stunning
    Bottom line-you will learn more by trial and error-reading-online info and video. There is a great deal of info out there.
    With the advent of digital photogrphy-even rookies can come up with amazing images. Dont short change yourself  by being lazy-or just going "auto-all." Make your photos shine
    Take your best shot--invest more time-in Photoshop.  There is magic out there. Find it
    Good luck

  • Auto levels or auto contrast results in completely black photo in elements 10

    Does anyone know why I get a completely black result when I use either auto levels or auto contrast in photoshop elements 10?

    It might be that the Auto Color Correction Options>Target Colors need to be set back to the default colors
    Make an Levels adjustment layer and  Alt or Option click on the Auto button
    The default colors are
    (click on the color chips to change)
    Shadows RGB 0,0,0
    Midtones RGB 128,128,128
    Highlights RGB 255,255,255

  • How to "Auto Levels" to multiple images?

    Aperture doesn't allow one to perform the "Auto Levels" function on multiple images regardless of the state of the "Toggle Primary Only" control. Has anyone discovered a workaround in 1.1?
    (This topic was previously discussed for 1.0 in http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1486906&#1486906)
    Thanks.

    You can lift and stamp the changes made by using an auto-adjustment, but it will no longer be automatic, just a copy of the changes made to the last image.
    Aperture doesn't let you make any image adjustment to multiple images at once, so it's nothing specific to auto-adjust.

  • Adjustment panel and the Targeted Adjustment Tool

    I have assigned the F3 key to toggle the display of the Adjustments panel. However, whenever I have an adjustment that includes the Targeted Adjustment Tool (such as curves) the F3 key activates the TAT rather than dismissing the Adjustment panel. I have to move to a non-TAT adjustment to allow F3 to dismiss the Adjustment panel. In fact, any Fn key will activate the TAT rather than it's assigned keyboard action. Is this normal behaviour? If so, it's most annoying.

    No one else seeing this problem? It does not happen in CS4.
    I'm guessing the "bug" appeared after I had set the Auto-Select Targeted Adjustment Tool. I have since removed the Auto-Select feature but now any Fn key will select the TAT rather than dismiss the Adjustment panel. You have to move to an adjustment without a TAT for the Fn key to dismiss the Adjustment panel. Definitely a workflow annoyance.
