Modifying a 1D LUT
You can modify a 1D LUT by changing values in its ASCII file without having
to reset the 1D LUT field.
To modify a 1D LUT:
1 Open the ASCII file of the 1D LUT and make the necessary modifications.
2 Save the LUT.
3 Click Refresh.
The image is refreshed with the modified parameters.
NOTE If you want to modify a 1D LUT that is provided with the 1D LUT tool, save
the modified 1D LUT under a different file name to preserve the original LUT as
is.
