Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video 593 Adding color and grid lines to a histogram, part of Deke's Techniques.
- [Instructor] Alright, so far,…our detailed rendering of the LCD screen…on the back of a DSLR…features plain white histograms,…when in fact, those histograms should be colored…according to the red, green, and blue channels,…and we should also have these vertical gridlines…that mark the quarter tones,…which is why in this movie,…we're going to go ahead and colorize…each one of the histograms,…and we're going to add the vertical lines…behind the histograms, as we're seeing right here.…Alright, so, the first step…is to go ahead and twirl open the histograms group…up here at the top of the layers panel.…
