P: HSL Adjustments for Local Adjustment Tools

Thank you Rikk and Adobe Team,
this local Hue tools is a very good step. Please implement the Color and Luminance Range Mask in LR (mobile and Desk) to be able to select the areas, then I am happy (for the moment 🙂

The new local HSL control is much more selective and has a greater range than the HSL panel controls.
Here's an example using a Graduated filter dragged off canvas to apply the local settings to the whole image. The Color Range control was used to select the color of the purple gems and then use the local Hue slider to change the color to green. The Adjustment Brush could have also been used if you want to target a specific area of the image. You won't get that selectivity and range of hue using the HSL panel controls. To increase saturation use the local Saturation control and for luminance the local Exposure control. Since a Color Range Mask has been applied those settings will only be applied to the selected color area. It's not all that difficult once you understand how to use the Color Range Mask control.

Any particular reason we can't just have the regular HSL tab copy pasted into the local adjustments? Would be a lot simpler than futsing with the Colour Range Mask (which also means you can only effect one colour in a selection instead of 2 or 3) and this new slider.

Would also be great if we could click and scroll wheel this new slider (and also the two different types of mask sliders) like you can with all the other sliders in LR.

Cheers.

This is a big step in the right direction. Thanks guys.

Sorry, I hope you are fully healed from the accident.  I have played with the Hue tool quite a bit and it works very well but I have found you pretty much have to use the Color Range Mask to make it effective. It seems to work in circumstances I didn't thinK it would work well for.   I think you will like it and find it very useful and will help to not have to round-trip to Photoshop as often for hue changes.

No Adobe always half asses their updates. They could really make this a quick use toolinLR but they choose not to.

I will take a look. Was in a car accident on Friday and I hadn’t updated anything yet this month. I updated Lr classic earlier today and had a quick look. I’ve taught Adobe software for years so I don’t need a lecture on how to use it. I made it clear in my previous post why I hadn’t updated yet. With the car accident, I haven’t been at the computer much this month.

Nope. They half assed it again. There needs to be an eye dropper function to select the exact shade/hue of the target color you want to affect. Adobe is king at half asking updates that have been requested for years.

The Local HUE tool works great but like anything else you have to take the time to learn how to use it and apparently you haven't done that.  Like all other Local adjustment tools you have to select what you want changed first.  

In Lightroom Classic and Camera Raw you use the Range Mask Tool - in Color Mode to select the exact Hue you want exposed to the local adjustment tool. There is an eye dropper for that function...
