Changing the hue

Color in an image consists of its hue and the saturation. Hue refers to the overall color cast of the image.

To change the hue

1On the Advanced menu, click Adjust Color.

The turquoise line appears in the histogram when either eyedropper cursor is positioned over the image. This line shows you where in the histogram the pixels in that area of the image occur.
