+ b* Pseudocolor display for IT8.7<br />

2 ), may be a better measure of visual color difference. It's easy to<br />

correlate ∆E* metrics with visual color differences using this display. None of the metrics are perfect! The probe is turned off by<br />

clicking outside either of the images.<br />

Split display for IT8.7 illustrating Probe<br />

Color difference type (Popup menu to the right of the Probe checkbox; also in 3D Color difference) Contains a list of color<br />

metrics (mostly difference metrics) including ∆E*ab, ∆C*ab, ∆E*94, ∆C*94, ∆E00, ∆C00 (CIEDE2000 metrics that replaced<br />

∆E*CMC and ∆C*CMC in <strong>Imatest</strong> 2.6.8), ∆L*, ∆Chroma, ∆|Hue distance| , ∆(Hue angle) , Chroma (input) and Chroma (output).<br />

Invert (Checkbox) inverts the color map. For the map shown (above, right), 0 would be black; maximum would be white.<br />

Color map (Popup menu) allows you to select the color map. The WYRMBK color map shown goes from White - Yellow - Red<br />

- Magenta - Blue - Black.<br />

3D Color difference<br />

Uses the height of the patches to display the difference between the ideal and<br />

input colors. Any of several metrics can be chosen. Can be zoomed and rotated.<br />

Light (Checkbox) Turns on light to highlight the shape of the plot. Default is<br />

On.<br />

A-rotate (Toggle button; short for Auto rotate) starts rotating the image.<br />

Rotation is quite slow; it may be less useful than the 3D L*a*b* plot (below).<br />

The image continues to rotate until the next time you press the A-rotate button.<br />

It's best to turn off rotation before switching to other views.<br />

display.<br />

Background (Slider) sets the background gray level.<br />

Invert (Checkbox) inverts the up-down orientation of the 3D plot.<br />
