P: HSL Adjustments for Local Adjustment Tools

[Butch_M]

The addition of HSL controls for the adjustment brush and the gradient tools would be a wonderful advancement and offer LR another great feature set that I'm sure would come in handy for the vast majority of Lightroom users.

You can't use the HSL sliders but you can use the Color Range Mask in local adjustments;

1 Use one of the Local Selection tools to Select and area that includes the red you want to change

2 Use the Range Mask/Color to select just the range of color you want.

3 Change the local Hue, Saturation and Exposue sliders. Exposure is the substitute for L in HSL

Check Youtube for a video on using the Color Range Mask in Lightroom Classic for more info.

Thanks Bob, that works really well!

Hi,

I wanted to pass this on to the developers of Lightroom (and even Adobe RAW). This would be a feature people would hopefully find useful. I always assumed it would eventually be introduced, but it still hasn't been - so here we are 🙂

Any way you can develop a way to use the HSL panel in a masked area?

why cant we get hsl adjustments on masks? if i only want to edit hsl in one part of the image i cant, this feature would be extremely useful

The AI face masking is a fantastic feature. The ability to select faces, other skin, and individual features is such a time saver compared to manually selecting. Now more than ever it would be very beneficial to have the HSL/Color panel available for individual masks. Teeth yellow? AI mask, go into yellow and lighten/desaturate. Bloodshot eyes? AI mask sclera and go into red and lighten/desaturate. You can do a universal color saturation and lightness adustment but not specific colors. This doesn't give the same great result that being able to work with the specific colors can give. If possible, please add this feature. Thank you.

HSL w maskach bardzo by sie przydał mi tez twgo brakuje najlepiej jeszcze jak by było koło bawr tak jak jest Capture one

Please enable the HSL tools in mask mode. 

This would make adjusting skin tones so much easier. 

(Add a mask based on person X's skin tone, exludin lips, and then adjust the reds and yellows separately.)

It's really time to add all the color adjustments to the masking function.

I don't know how many times clients have to ask for this, and yet only a tiny bit more is ever added to the masks.

It's just such an essential part to be able to adjust colors, saturations and luminances (HSL) in the masks.

I can't believe this hasn't been added yet again.

I love the new maksing features in Lightroom Classic. Since you added the tone curve I think it would also be beneficial to add the Hue, Saturation and Luminance, HSL, panel inside the masking feature. Thank you!!!

DXO Photolab 7 now offers local HSL. Like Capture One.

Please Adobe, this is now a long long overdue feature many times requested by LRc users....

With today's release of Point Color, this has taken another step forward: 

Point Color for Global and Local adjustments allows for a three-dimensional (HSL) selection of and adjustment in three dimensions (HSL) of any color on your image with the option to refine ranges and outputs.
