Color Correction

Red

Specifies the amount of red RGB color components for the selected graphic object. Values from -100% (no red) to +100% (full red) are possible.

Blue

Specifies the amount of blue RGB color components for the selected graphic. Values from -100% (no blue) to +100% (full blue) are possible.

Green

Specifies the amount of green RGB color components for the selected graphic object. Values from -100% (no green) to +100% (full green) are possible.

Luminance

Brightness

Specifies the brightness for the selected graphic object. Values from -100% (only black) to +100% (only white) are possible.

Contrast

Specifies the contrast for viewing the selected graphic image. Values from -100% (no contrast at all) to +100% (full contrast) are possible.

Gamma

Specifies the gamma value for the view of the selected object, which affects the brightness of the midtone values. Values from 0,10 (minimum Gamma) to 10 (maximum Gamma) are possible.

Transparency

Specifies the transparency in the graphic object. Values from 0% (opaque) to +100% (transparent) are possible.

Graphics Mode

Lists view attributes for the selected graphic object. The embedded or linked graphic object in the current file will not be changed, only the view of the object.

Cell Styles Graphics mode

Default

The view of the graphic object is not changed.

Grayscale

The graphic object is shown in grayscale. A color graphic object can become monochrome in grayscale. You can also achieve tinted grayscale colors by raising one of the color parameters.

Black/White

The graphic object is shown in black and white. All brightness values below 50% will appear black, all over 50% will appear white.

Watermark

The graphic object is reduced in brightness and contrast so that is suitable to be used in the background as a watermark.

Image Filter

Opens the Filter window, where you can use various filters on the selected graphic image.

Invert

Inverts the color values of a color image, or the brightness values of a grayscale image.

Invert Invert

Smooth

Softens the contrast in an image.

Smooth Smooth

Sharpen

Increases the contrast in an image.

Sharpen Sharpen

Remove Noise

Removes single pixels from an image.

Remove Noise Remove Noise

Solarization

Opens a dialog for defining solarization. Solarization refers to an effect that looks like what can happen when there is too much light during photo development. The colors become partly inverted.

Solarization Solarization

Parameters

Specifies the degree and type of solarization.

Threshold Value

Specifies the degree of brightness, in percent, above which the pixels are to be solarized.

Invert

Specifies whether the pixels to be solarized are also to be inverted.

Aging

Opens a dialog for setting the aging function. Each time you call this function, the image appears a little bit darker; the colors can be made more gray or brown.

Aging Aging

Aging Degree

Defines the intensity of aging, in percent. The higher the value, the more the image ages.

Posterize

Opens a dialog to determine the number of poster colors. This effect is based on the reduction of the number of colors. It makes photos look like paintings.

Posterize Posterize

Poster Colors

Specifies the number of colors to which the image is to be reduced.

Pop Art

Converts an image to a pop-art format. By applying color alienation, the image acquires a completely new character. This function can be applied to the whole image or to parts of it.
