Hue Saturation Luminance - Galer

I am working through Galer's Elements 8 - Maximum Performance and have had only little trouble until Project 5, Hue Saturation & Luminance. When using the Smart Brush Tool, in the options bar there are presets in the video that are not part of the Elements 8 program. For example, in the Options Bar drop down window there is no selection labeled MP7. This eliminates the options there such as Darken Blues 3. These are add on items Galer has made available as part of the Maximum Performance publication which I have been following. He indicates that these additional options may be added to the Elements 8 program. There is the beginning of my problem. How do I add the features to my Elements 8 program? Can anyone provide a protocol for this so that I may continue learning via Galer.
Also, while Galer is using the Smart Brush Tool, he is able to change his Background Layer to Luminosity. Mine alway stays Normal. Is there a reason I can not make this change and does that affect the use of the program as he is able to.
Thanks for any help.

Well, as far as a nuisance, like adding most things to PSE, let's just say it's not as easy as it should be. Put all three files (the .psd, xml, and thumbnail file) into C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\8.0\Photo Creations\adjustment layers. Then go to
C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\8.0\Locale\en_US (this path is different if you aren’t in the United States), and delete MediaDatabase.db3 to refresh the list of presets.
I think that version of the Galer book has wrong file paths, IRCC.

How can I get hue, saturation & luminance visible in the Loupe?

For the life of me I can't figure how to get visible in the Loupe - Hue, Saturation, Luminance as I move the Loupe around a photo.
I can get R,G,B,L. Is there a secret to get the Hue in it? I checked preferences and even searched in Aperture Help. NO luck.
I'm in Aperture 3.0.3
Thanks

It is a tad secret.
Make sure colour value is set in the Loupe menu then:
In the Adjustments inspector choose a color value option from the Adjustment Action pop-up menu (with a gear icon). HSB i smiling at you in that list
Then it'll appear as a colour value in the loupe.
BTW You'll find all this in the Displaying a Pixel Grid and Color Values section of Aperture help.

Hue Saturation Luminance sliders in CR4.1

Hallo,
Having just posted problems I was having with printing that I thought were due to some aspect of my colour management policies and/or my LCD monitor when tilted, I traced back my editing to the original DNG image and discovered something. As a result i have a simple question:
1. I know that all adjustments in RAW are global - no problem. But what I want to know is this; When adjusting the luminance values of say in my case the Yellow slider, is this affecting even the yellow values in all the colours of the image? It appears so but I had assumed maybe wrongly that this particular slider and option would have only affected literally the yellow colour, and not the Yellow VALUES in the blues and greys and greens.
Have I now learned something or is this assumption also wrong.
the original problem had to do with a slightly darker print but also a slightly yellow colour cast which COULD NOT BE SEEN on my monitor even when proofing. The RGB values revealed otherwise by a lack of blue values in the RGB info palette, and its opposite, much higher Yellow values in the CMYK info palette.

Hi, as far as matching colours of images, I would never use Hue saturation, In fact The hue saturation sliders are really a very crude means of adjustment, even as a layer. I would use the APPLY IMAGE command under Image.
Ok, Jeff, I can not find post 8, i am probably stupid but I do not see how to get to post 8. As far as your question is concerned about ACR and PS differences; I have never really compared them. Apart from the fact in acr every adjustment you make is global, whereas in PS you can mask out and use layers and target areas to be adjusted. I would imagine that there would not be any fundemental difference in the two. One is manipulating th esame information in both packages. Now if you were to ask me to compare say the HSL sliders of photoserif 11 and ACR then I would choose ACR. the reason being is that PS is a professional package and Serif is not. I began with Serif.
But please let me see your first question (8) maybe I ma missing something.
Bets Regards
Chris.

Using Hue Saturation to change color of shirt not working

In CS5, I tried to make a selection of a white shirt and used Image > Adjustment >Hue Saturation, though when I drag the Hue slider, nothing happens, only a little bit of pixels of color change. Why is this.
Thanks.

1. So this is simply the wrong tool to change the color?
Are you familiar with the geometric representation for the HSB- or LCH-model?
The straight line connecting white and black is the axis that’s totally neutral, so changing the Hue or the Saturation/Chroma has no effect on points located thereon.
You can still use Hue/Saturation to colorize neutrals by checking the Colorize-box.
Or create a Solid Color Layer of the intended color and set it to Blend Mode Color and use a Curves Adjustment Layer to adjust the Luminance below that.
Edit:

Figure 2a might be helpful in illustrating the gray axis.

In Photoshop CC (2014), Hue/Saturation adjustment layer properties disappear

I am running Photoshop CC (2014) under Windows 7 Professional. The program is up to date.
Today, while editing an 8-bit image, I added a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer. Then, in the properties panel for this layer, with the on-image adjustment tool selected, I clicked a color in the image to get a range of colors whose saturation I wanted to adjust. Next, using the saturation slider in the properties panel, I increased the saturation of this range of colors. Finally, I closed the properties panel by clicking on the double arrow in the upper right corner.
Later, I wanted to modify this adjustment layer. I double-clicked on the layer thumbnail to reopen the properties panel, and found that, although the previous increase in saturation was still operating, the saturation slider was back at its default position, and the range of colors that I had previously established was gone. Thus, I could not make further adjustments to this range of colors.
I then did some further experimentation: I deleted the first Hue/Saturation adjustment layer, and created a new Hue/Saturation adjustment layer. I then again established a range of colors as above, again increased the saturation of these colors, and then again closed the properties panel by clicking on the double arrow in the upper right corner. This time, however, when I wanted to try to modify this adjustment layer, instead of double-clicking on the layer thumbnail to reopen the properties panel, I right-clicked on the layer and then clicked on "Edit adjustment..." This opened the properties panel, which, this time, correctly showed my original adjustments -- the saturation slider showed the positive adjustment that I had previously made, and the range of colors established earlier was still shown. But then, on a hunch, I added a Curves adjustment layer above the Hue/Saturation adjustment layer. Now, when I again opened the properties panel of the Hue/Saturation adjustment layer (by right-clicking on the layer and then clicking on "Edit adjustment..."), my previous settings were gone -- the saturation slider was at its default position and the range of colors was gone! (But the increase in saturation was still operating.)
Thus, it appears that there is a bug in the functioning of the properties panel of the Hue/Saturation layer: In short, once you have added a further adjustment layer, you can't then go back and make changes to the properties of the Hue/Saturation layer. I would be interested to hear if others have noticed this. Also, is Adobe planning to address this?

OK, I am not entirely sure I have understood your post completely, but when you edit a colour range with a Hue/Sat layer, and click off and back on again, it will default to showing the RGB values, which you may not have made any adjustment to. If you pick the previous colour from the image, or a similar colour, it _will_ show you the adjustments. So long as your picked colour is contained within the range of the previous adjustment.
Ypu could also use the RGB drop down (actually they call it Master nowadays), and chose the colour that is closest to your previously picked colour. I expect you are away that you can edit the colour range being operated on by dragging the four sliders on the two colour bars at the bottom of the Properties panel.
Does that make sense, or am I going in the wrong direction?

Photoshop Elements 6: Hue/Saturation as a basic layer?

When creating a hue/saturation layer in Photoshop Elements 6, is it possible to have it act as a basic layer, adding and removing from the selection, rather than a mask layer?

The simple method is to place your selection on a separate layer and clip the hue/saturation mask to it.
In this example I selected the sky and pushed up the saturation to really exaggerate the blue color.
Click to view
1. Make your selection
2. Press Ctrl+J to place it on its own layer
3. Add new adjustment layer (hue/saturation) and click OK to close the dialog
4. Hover your mouse over the dividing line between the adjustment layer and selection layer whilst holding down the alt key. Click when you see two small connecting circle appear. A downward pointing arrow will appear to show the adjustment layer is clipped to the selection layer.
5. Double click the thumbnail icon on the adjustment layer (not the white mask thumbnail) and that will bring back the dialog box.
6. Now use the sliders to make your selective adjustments.

What video effect for color desaturation? (e.g. Hue/Saturation in Photoshop)

Hi all,
What is the Premiere equivalent of the HUE/SATURATION adjustment layer found i Photoshop ? I am trying to slightly desaturate (about -53%) my movie to give it a more gritty look. I could easily get the look I wanted in Photoshpo by going to NEW ADJUSTMENT LAYER-->HUE/SATURATION.
Is there a similar approach for Premiere? In the Video effects folder somewhere? Thanks!

Use the "Fast Color Corrector and "Saturation".

Hue/saturation eyedropper not available

The eyedropper tool in the Hue/Saturation adjustment window (Photoshop CC) is grayed out and unavailable. What do I need to do to activate it?
Thanks!

Great! Glad to know you are on your way.

The eyedropper tool does not work with a hue saturation adjustment layer

I am using PS CC 2014, and the problem I am having is that when I want to use the eyedropper tool to adjust the colour range affected by a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer, rather than selecting the colour in the Properties window for the adjustment layer, use of the eyedropper closes the properties window and changes the foreground colour in my palette.
Here's the real hitch... the same thing happened to me at school last night where a) the Mac's are older and b) CS6 is still used.
It's something with my user settings, to be sure, because the prof logged into his account on the Mac I was using in class to test it out, and it worked for him; we logged back into my account and it still did not work for mine.
Any ideas?
Thanks for any insights.

Indeed Trevor, that did solve the problem. Clearly it was something I changed... wish I knew what. But, I have a list of all the settings changes I made before, so I can figure it out by making one at a time then checking...

Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layer

I am a Photoshop beginner working on a class project. In the Hue/Saturation adjustment layer box, what number value will give me a "cool blue" for the Hue slider? Thank you.

"Cool blue" is as specific a color as "Yummy Purple". Wikipedia took a shot at defining cool blue here:
Cobalt blue - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
which it displays as this:
and your sliders in Hue/Saturation set to:
H20 S0 L34 will put you in the ballpark.
I suggest that when it comes to color spec you familiarize yourself with the Pantone Matching System, for starters.
Good luck.

Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layer Bug in Photoshop CS6

I noticed that most of the time I cannot copy a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer in Photoshop CS6. (In about a third of all cases it works, in all others I have to create a new Hue/Saturation adjustment layer).
Hitting Command + J will cause my Mac to make an error sound.
Option + delete also doesn't work half the time.
Also: I cannot do a "Stamp visible" above a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer. Hitting Command + Option + Shift + E will bring another error sound.
I have to creat a new layer, and then create a stamp visible. But half the time this doesn't work, either. Hitting Command + Shift + N will give me another error sound.
I have to create a different adjustment layer, then an empty layer, and only then I can create a "stamp visible".
Only Hue/Saturation adjustment layers are affected by this - but it's a true hold-up.

What Mac? What version of OSX? That aside, your issue sounds too exotic to be a genuine bug. Sounds more like some specific combination of settings is preventing this. could be anything from blending tricks to color profiles...

I suspect you mean the Hue/Saturation under Image>Adjustments? Are you trying to add it to a Smart Object layer?

For some reason, "HSL" is gone from my develop panel. I used to be able to adjust specific colors (blues, greens etc) for saturation, luminance and so on. But that option is now gone from my develop panel. How do I get it back?

Right-click the title bar of any of the panels in the righthand column of the Develop module (for example, the Basic panel) and choose "Adjustments" from the panel list that appears.

Replace color and hue/saturation?

Is there any real difference with using hue/saturation and replace color to change the color of an item OR is it just two ways to do the same thing?

If you did a hue/saturation change then both the blue and yellow would change according to the sliders that you use.
That would apply if you edit the Hue/Saturation’s Master (alt-2), but if the Colors are sufficiently different one could influence only the Reds (alt-3), Yellows {alt-4) etc.
And that’s naturally best done with an Adjustment Layer.
