Controls
Separation
In short, separation of 0 will apply changes to the whole image and separation of 3 will apply it on the darkest areas of the image only. When adjusting separation, click on 'Mask' radio button and adjust the slider until parts of the image you want to recover are dark, and rest of the image is white.
Gamma
Amount of gamma correction applied. Move slider up to increase details, down to
decrease.
Contrast
Amount of contrast correction applied. Move slider down to increase contrast, up to
decrease. This slider works much the same way as right slider in 'Levels'
function in Photoshop.
How to use
1. Select 'Original' radio button (selected by default) zoom in and drag the preview image until the area of the photo you want to enhance comes into the view.
2. Click on 'Mask' radio button and adjust separation slider so dark areas of the original image appear dark on the mask and areas of the image you don't want changed are white.
3. Click on 'Result' radio button and adjust gamma and contrast sliders until you get desired result. You can also fine tune 'Separation' slider at that point.
4. Click 'Ok' button to apply
the settings to the whole image.
FAQ
1. When I use selection, edges of the
selection appear brighter.
When using selection, make sure to feather the selection
(menu Select -> Feather or Alt + Ctrl + D ) prior to running the
Shadow Control.
