if the target is the output of an RGBA composition, it displays RGBA Chns: RGB
channels. If the target is the output of an RGB composition, it displays
RGB channels.
The red, green, and blue channels. RGB
The red, green, blue, and alpha channels. RGBA
The alpha channel. A
Any combination of RGBA channels. Enter the combination you want
as a four-character string in which you specify each channel either as <user-
defined>
the channel letter (if you want to display it), or as a blank (if you do
not want to display it). Position is significant: the first position is R, the
second G, the third B, and the fourth A. For example if you wanted to
see only the blue and alpha channels, you would enter two spaces or
2 'Ns' followed by BA.
