What are the definitions of colors that are triangles of histogram in Lightroom?

What are the definitions of colors that are triangles of histogram in Lightroom?

I just got working with the histogram in Lightroom.
I understand the basic principles and how to apply the settings to eliminate the white triangle and get it to gray when the triangle lights up.

I notice that the Triangle will both light up in different colors such as:
Yellow, white, red.
What do the colours mean?
Finally, I get to have the gray triangle Tower.
However: I do the right setting to get to the gray color where one white color other then lights?

In other words:
If I change the whites/highlights is that the correct change or should it be exhibition based on a color then other white indicating in the triangle.

I hope I explained my question properly, ask any follow-up questions if I failed to make the case for the question.
Thank you

Greg

Triangles indicate that one or more channel was cut in the shade (left) or (right) highlights.

When a channel has been cut, there is no color of this channel - i.e. the value is 0 or 255.

Edit: Lightroom uses % instead of levels for color values, so are the number 0 or 100%

red = red channel cut

Green = green channel cut

Blue = Blue channel cut

cyan = green, and blue channels cut

Magenta = red and blue channels cut

yellow = the red and green channels cuts

Gray = all clipped channels

dark gray only = no Cup channel

Unless you are working with images for scientific use, I had put the dark and light tones for the most part looking at the picture itself, rather than using the histogram. The histogram tells you a lot about the image in the blink of an eye, but there is no such thing as a histogram "perfect."

What I usually do is hold the ALT key while dragging the cursor highlights and blacks, which show the cutting in the image itself. I'd rather not have reflections clipped (except for specular highlights) and usually have a little black clipping som real black in the picture.

How the shadows and highlights of an image depend a lot on the nature of the image and your personal preferences.

Some images look better without blacks or whites, like the one below.

  • What is the largest hard drive that will work in dv6324us laptop computer?

    What is the largest hard drive that will work in a HP Pavilion dv6324us laptop?

    Hello:

    Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop.

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c01035677.PDF

    Support for HARD drives and capacities are listed in Chapter 3, page 3-25.

    Personally, I think you could install a SATA II 320 GB to your laptop.  Maybe even a 500 GB.

    You could also probably install a drive of 7 200 rpm for better performance or if the battery life between charges is more important for you, then stick with a disk of 5 400 rpm.

  • What is the unit allocation size that is displayed in the window to format USB?

    Original title: allocation unit size

    What is the unit allocation size that is displayed in the window to format usb

    Hi Moaz,

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you want to know the unit allocation size that is displayed in the format USB window. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    I will certainly help the question of fixing.

    In computer file systems, a cluster is the unit of allocation of disk space for files and directories. To reduce the load of the management of data on disk structures, the file system allocates no individual disk sectors, but contiguous groups of sectors, called clusters.

    On a disk that uses 512-byte sectors, a 512-byte cluster contains one sector, whereas a 4-Kibibyte (KiB) contains eight sectors.

    Refer to the below mentioned article and see if it provides information that you are looking for.

    By default for NTFS cluster size, FAT and exFAT:

    What is the version of dreamweaver that creates search engine friendly web mostly?

    All versions of Dreamweaver are able to produce good web pages, providing the person who uses, she knows how.   It is not the tool.  It is the skill of the person using it.

    Search engine optimization comes down to the base of 3 things:

    1. You need to have lots of keyword rich, relevant and unique content on your pages.
    2. You have to organize this content in good semantic markup (h1, h2, h3... tags p and li).
    3. You must get other web sites respected post links to your web site.

  • What is the definition of inactivity in the power settings?

    What is the definition of inactivity in the power settings? Lack of information provided by a user or a process does not? If a computer runs a scan of disks and a user does not input is an active computer or not?

    Hello

    Idle refers to the question of whether or not a device is used. This could be due to a lack of user input. For example, if the user is running a disk check, the disc is in use and is not idle. If the computer has been idle and the hard drive was not used, then the idle development would come into force.

  • can't change color on visited sites without changing the background /foreground colors that hide options on the sitec

    I want to change the color of the visited sites, but am forced to put background and foreground colors that don't properly
    display all colors for controls etc. on many sites.
    I uncheck the button Allow pages to choose their own colors...
    Google is a good example, after doing a search, then went to change the color of sites, uncheck the allow pages button and then you don't see the research and most of the options button in the upper right corner in google.

    I'm a little colorblind, can not differentiate the blue and purple for links on sites visited...

    THX

    I think the problem is that many sites use background colors to create buttons, so you lose when you override the colors of the page.

    Perhaps you could use an add-on to refine the colors instead of the parameter of type all or nothing Firefox. I found a few extensions that say they can change the colors of the page, but I've not tried it myself:

    For a truly personalized approach of colors, links, there are two ways of general use to apply your own style rules to specific sites: the stylish extension and a file userContent.css. You must define a background color preferred text and for links visited and unvisited so that you're sure to be able to read the text.

    I hope that one of them fits the Bill!

  • I have WINDOWS XP, run office 97 / Access 97. What is the most recent windows that run these?

    I have WINDOWS XP, run office 97 / Access 97.  That's all

    I really need and want in the categories of personal finance.

    However, I need a more powerful and faster computer for our world today.

    What is the latest computer and office versions that will run office 97 / Access 97?

    Office 97 is not compatible with any version of victory, win7 & win8 and is no longer supported (no update security)

    Most of the problems are with outlook, so if you install, custom Setup to not include outlook, for a \Office97 \Program Files (x 86) folder

    If using win7 see this first Ko http://support.microsoft.com/kb/978591 if this applies also to the win8, I cannot say.

    If you are using win7 Pro (not the Home version) you can use virtual Windows XP and install Office 97 in this environment.

    Office 2007 and especially relies entirely on win7 & win8

    A more powerful/fast PC will make no difference for Office 97

  • How can I create a new gradient based on the current fill color that I am applying it?

    I often need to add gradients to shapes that already exist and already have a fill color. I want to add a gradient that would be a mixture of the color that is already there and the black.  Gradients of new totally ignore what existed before. Is it possible to include the fill color that is already there in the slope?

    In fact, you can skip the step of swatch. You can drag the fill color directly from the toolbar at the appropriate end of the fitting band gradient in the gradient/panel palette; Then, apply the gradient. Be careful, though - you can end up creating a new unwanted color along the gradient stop.

    Map of 5770 in my Studio XPS 8100 seems to be dying.  The screen keeps have corrupted and I can't do anything until I restart, then it happens after a few minutes.  I have a corsair cx430 power supply installed.

    The only weird thing I've noticed is that when it is started in safe mode the display seems to work perfectly.

    This machine is my server machine, so I only need to make a minimum of working directly on the machine.
