Dye/Tint Images
The Dye/Tint feature lets you apply color to your image(s). Click on the drop-down
arrow to see the Dye/Tint dialog:
Check the Tint Image On/Off box to show or hide the tint on your image.
Check Add to Color Composite to automatically add your tinted image to the color
composite image.
The Dye drop-down list displays a list of all the dye definitions found in the current
dye folder. You may select a different dye from the drop-down list, and all the
remaining controls will be updated to show the characteristics of the new dye.
Clicking the settings button displays the Dye Editor dialog, where you can view a
detailed list of the available dyes, add new dyes or delete old ones.
The Emissions Wavelength drop-down displays the emissions wavelength for the dye
you have chosen. You can adjust the emissions wavelength by entering a new value.
The default color will change in response to changes in the emissions wavelength.
The Tint Color box lets you choose a color to indicate a particular dye. Here you can
change the color associated with the selected dye, or define a custom color. The color
default is linked to the selection of a wavelength for your dye. If you change the
emissions wavelength, the color displayed will be the standard color for that
wavelength. To set a custom color, first you should set the wavelength and then edit
the color.
The Hue slider control and spin button lets you control the degree of color saturation
in your dye or tint.
