NEW: color module with pipette
This impressive new module is one of the most important innovations and manipulates colors in the best possible way. With the new color module you can set selective color accents without having to select the color range. Simply click on the color to be changed with the color picker and select another segment in the color wheel.

You can use the eyedropper to select any colored area that is immediately shown in the color wheel. This color selection can be expanded or narrowed by a lower / higher saturation, an expansion of the color spectrum (color angle) etc ... Use the sliders "Target hue / saturation / exposure / contrast" to select the desired new hue. The great advantage here is that no selection of the colored objects is necessary, but an exact selection is made via the colors.
