RE: [Digital BW] Displaying multiple curves in PS

2007-09-25 by Eric Neilsen

Steve, This is a simple feat with an action set that you can write for
yourself.  Some of the other suggestions get you close, but this sounds like
something that you'd like to do more than once or twice.  Make an action
that creates a new layer mask with curves that you use. The action could
even include make a copy from the current state. There could be a save
command if you need to go that far. 

 

You can go back to the image after the action has run and turn on and off
the layers to see. Alternatively within the action make a snap shot of the
image and then you'd only need to click between those version to see your
image. If you like what you see you could save a copy from that state and
print.

Subject: [Digital BW] Displaying multiple curves in PS

 

I cannot fingure out how to display mulitple saved curves at one time
in Photoshop. I have several of curves that I use to adjust contrast
before printing and would like to be able to compare them on screen at
the same time to get a visual sense of the differences among them. At
this point, I plot them on graph paper which seems silly.

Any ideas?

Steve
