Using the RGB Probe
The most important tool in correcting images is the Probe. This window tracks
your corrections by displaying the RGB values. To view the RGB Probe, select
Probe in the Window drop down menu (Or press
+P on a Macintosh,
P if using Windows). As you pass your cursor over the Overview or a
region window, the Probe shows the values for the pixel(s) at the current cursor
position.
The RGB Probe window is a static display. Its appearance depends on the Scan
Mode you select in the Control Bar (see next section). However, the Probe always
shows the X/Y coordinates of the current cursor position (Probe Location) and
the original and output optical density values (Densities) for the selected pixel(s).
RGB Probe Window Configurations
When scanning in RGB mode, the RGB Probe displays the RGB reflectance values
(RGB Pixel Values) for the selected pixel(s) (see Figure 3–1).
