Using tone curves
Click the arrow next to the channel box to select the
channel from the drop-down menu.
To make adjustments to the color balance of the image,
select the appropriate color channel. To adjust the con-
trast or brightness of the image without affecting the
color, select the RGB channel.
The tone curves can be displayed with keyboard short-
cuts. While holding the control key (Windows) or com-
mand key (Macintosh), press 0 (zero) to display the
RGB channel, 1 to display the red channel, 2 to display
the green channel, or 3 to display the blue channel.
