Exposure warnings

Imerge can use overlays to identify areas in your image that are out of gamut and may be clipped when exported. The colors of the overlays can be chosen here.

• Highlight overlay color: Click the swatch to open a color picker and choose the color that will be used to identify areas that are too bright to fit into the destination color space.
• Shadow overlay color: Click this swatch to open a color picker and choose the color that will be used to identify areas that are too dark to fit into the destination color space.

Interface layout

The layer list and layer inspector can be positioned on the left hand side or right hand side of the screen. Click the thumbnail for your preferred layout to select it.

• Left handed: Places the layer controls on the left hand side of the screen.
