Novice Mode
Expert Mode is the most
sophisticated mode of ContrastMaster. It offers the combined effects of all
other modes.
Tab Sheets
Expert Mode consists of two tab controls with four tab sheets each. Each tab sheet offers different effect and adjustment methods that can be selected from a Method combo box. For more information, please read the following pages: Convert Tab Sheet, Selective Tab Sheet, General Tab Sheet, Colorize Tab Sheet as well as Mask Tab Sheet, Soften Tab Sheet, Grain Tab Sheet, Lab Tab Sheet.
Method Combo Boxes
All tab sheets offer a Method combo box (except for the General tab sheet) for choosing between different effect and adjustment methods. Each method offers two or more sliders and some methods also offer other controls, e.g. a color box. Methods are exclusive, which means that if you choose another method from the same combo box, the effect of the previous method won't be applied anymore. The only exception are the Vignette and Frame methods of the Mask tab sheet. If you activate the Lock check box for them, they will still be applied to the image even if you choose another Mask method.
Button Menus
Each of the eight tab sheets offers an arrow-down button for displaying a menu with local presets. These local presets set the sliders of a tab sheet to some predefined values for a useful effect. For more information please read the Local Presets page.
