Let's improve the Curves by adding RGB buttons to switch between the channels!

Now, with the drop-down list, we have to click twice - first time to activate the list, second time to choose the channel. Buttons would speed up the workflow. 🙂

That's what we've already got in ACR.

Showing the opposite colors is also a good idea, by the way.

But it could be optional - some experienced users may find it distracting.

Just watched a Youtube video about the latest updates in beta for the Hue/Saturation.

Adobe is thinking in this direction, so I hope this my suggestion will also be implemented 🙂

Though the topic isn't even "under review", it's a pity.

It's a no-brainer idea that should have been there from the start.

The dropdown or shortcuts depress me...

OTOH, Alt + 1,2,3 does also work using one hand on a non-English keyboard, so it's not that bad at all, but probably still need two hands or the dropdown to get to the RGB curve...

@Jeff Arola, why do you need that inside Curves tab?

Add the Transparency channel as well.

Haha 🙂

If Adobe does decide to work on the curves panel I would also like to see Bezier handles added to adjustment points. These work well in software such as Substance Designer.
