Adjust hue, saturation, and vibrance in Pixelmator Pro on iPad
Color enhancement can bring a photo to its full potential. Using the Hue & Saturation controls in the Color Adjustments pane, you can shift the entire color palette of an image, intensify dull colors, and make an image pop.
Hue shifts all colors along the spectrum—turning blues to purples or yellows to oranges. Saturation controls color intensity (chroma), making colors more vivid or more muted. Vibrance also adjusts color intensity, enhancing color while protecting skin tones and already-vibrant areas from becoming oversaturated.
