It is important to note that, what 99% of software calls "saturation" is actually a setting that alters chroma (colorfulness irrespective of lightness). The color balance RGB module also includes what darktable calls real 'saturation.' This setting 'honors the Munsell and CIE (International Commission on Illumination) definition of saturation: colorfulness relative to lightness. It also uses luminance masks to split the image into shadows, highlights and midtones, allowing each to be color-graded separately. The module prevents users from pushing colors outside of the valid working range when editing. The color balance RGB module introduces several innovations to improve color editing. It uses a rational polynomial, similar to the Michaelis-Menten equation, 'which prevents the under- and over-shooting that can sometimes occur with high contrast and latitude when using the 'hard' and 'soft' interpolation methods.' The legacy workflow can still be manually enabled in the preferences.' Alongside the new image processing, there's a new interpolation method, dubbed 'safe.' It's the new default to build the characteristic 'S' shaped tone curve. The new 'quick access panel' replaces the old basic adjustments panel in darktable 3.6.ĭarktable writes, 'Now that scene-referred image processing is virtually feature-complete in darktable 3.6, scene-referred is now the default workflow. A further improvement is the ability to add and remove modules from a module group quickly. Users can add controls from any module to the quick access panel, promising improved usability. The quick access panel includes a new interface that combines existing processing modules into a unified layout. First up is the new ' quick access panel,' a replacement for the old basic adjustments module and more. Version 3.6 adds numerous new features to darktable. Darktable hopes to release a pair of major updates each year.īack to today's update. The latest update is the first of two planned feature releases, with the second intended to come out this winter. The darktable team has announced its second summer feature release, bringing darktable to version 3.6.
