6.31 Programming Menu > Adjustment area > Source adjustment

General

Selecting a source in the list does not allow for the contextual adjust controls to appear. In order to adjust any source it must be used in a Layer or an Aux and selected there. Also note that any adjustments to the source are only seen on the particular Layer or Aux where the adjustments are made, not the actual Source itself. The actual Source is updated only when “Save Source” is pressed.

Description

When a layer with a valid Source is selected, 2 adjustment tabs are shown. It defaults to showing the layer adjustments. But the user can click on the Source adjustment tab to see the adjustments mentioned in this section.

Two Tabs for Source adjustment:
