Using QuickFix Studio
Image Adjustments and Effects 113
The purpose of the QuickFix Studio is to provide an image adjustment
environment within PhotoPlus which simplifies the often complicated process of
image correction. You can consider QuickFix Studio as the image adjustment
equivalent of PhotoPlus's Filter Gallery, which instead concentrates on applying
and managing special effects.
An important feature in QuickFix Studio is the ability to cumulatively apply
adjustments (like applying filter gallery effects). Normally you won't need to apply
every adjustment available but a combination of several may be more likely.
To launch QuickFix Studio:
• Click the button on the Photo Studio toolbar (or select it
from the Effects menu).
Let's get familiar with the QuickFix Studio's interface. The example used is of a
wide-angle photo of an interesting building (the unwanted barrel distortion effect
is being removed)—the non-default landscape dual-screen view is displayed.
Available adjustments are available to the top-right of the QuickFix Studio (Lens
Distortion is currently selected). To apply, click on the adjustment name then alter
its Adjustment Options displayed below the thumbnails. Depending on the type of
adjustment, a selection of sliders, check boxes, and drop-down menus can be
modified (you can also enter absolute values into available input boxes).
