MadJik Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Change Extreme Colors From this to this What's this? I wanted a way to change the colors by selecting the extreme values (the darkest or the brightest). Here is the effect I just created for that. This plugin was made using CodeLab v3.2. Download it! Plugin ChangeExtremeColors.dll Here is the DLL http://jcljay.free.fr/pdn/ChangeExtremeColors.zip The MadJik's All plugins package is available! http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?showtopic=7186 How to install Close Paint.net Classic version of Paint.net Unzip and (re)place the DLL in your Effect folder usually: C:/Program Files/Paint.NET/Effects (please reverse / for correct path) Microsoft Store version of Paint.net Unzip and (re)place the DLL in your Effect folder usually: My Documents/paint.net App Files/Effects (please reverse / for correct path) You have to adapt for your language My Documents How to use it This image is created to test the effect. I suggest you to copy and paste it in paint.net to run the plugin and get familiar with the settings. The sliders per channel define the range of colors to modify. And for each selected color you could increase/decrease with the amount for darkest or brightest. The range around 128 is just between darkest and brightest. Default values of the interface make no modification to the image. You have to change something. The User interface This plugin is added to the menu Effects, submenu Color. Limit for Red/Green/Blue Set the values per channel to define the range of colors to modify. Same values (Red) Checked by default. If checked the slider Red is used for all the sliders. Unchecked to be able to change Green and Blue. Dark Colors Checked by default. If checked the colors in the darkest range are modified. Dark adjustment Add/subtract the value to the colors in the darkest range are modified on each channel. Light Colors Checked by default. If checked the colors in the brightest range are modified. Light adjustment Add/subtract the value to the colors in the brightest range are modified on each channel. Average/Maximum of channels When “Same values” is checked the test of the color is made on the average of the channel or on the maximum value of each channel. Maximum is better for monochrome colors when one channel is 255 and others are 0. The Examples: Voilà! Enjoy! Let me see what you could do with it! update 2018-01-27 (thanks to @ReMake - Visual studio version - Linked sliders (instead greyed). - Translation to French and Russian 3 1 Quote My DeviantArt | My Pictorium | My Plugins | Donate via Paypal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRON67 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 I haven't still a really usage for this, but found a little text bug: "Dark adjutment" and "Light adjutment". Additional I suppose to move the sliders for green and blue Limit, if they are connected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Updated... thank you for reporting this. 1 hour ago, IRON67 said: Additional I suppose to move the sliders for green and blue Limit, if they are connected. I don't get what you mean. When connected, only the first channel is used (Red channel) for all (same value used for green and blue).

ReMake Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) Perhaps @IRON67 meant that the sliders 'Limit Red/Green/Blue' should be linked like in 'Posterize' effect when 'Same values (Red)' is checked. It's not affected to the work of effect, but visually will be look better (or as we are used to it).

MadJik Posted January 25, 2018 Author Share Posted January 25, 2018 CodeLab proposes to grey and freeze element(s) depending on the value of another. "Connected" isn't the way it works. I will have to rebuild it with Visual Studio... and also to be able to add localisation... 1 Quote My DeviantArt | My Pictorium | My Plugins | Donate via Paypal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly have no intention to add the linked slider rule into CodeLab. It already handles the Enable/Disable rule and the Wrapped value rule. That's all you get.

IRON67 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) @ReMake is right. It's visually better. My first impression was, that something doesn't work until I saw the checkbox. Edited January 25, 2018 by IRON67 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynxster4 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Very interesting plugin @MadJik I'll have to experiment further. I see the potential in this.
