What does Automatic Levels Do?

Post by JohnFredC »

Sounds like a newbie question, but sometimes auto-levels does what I expect and sometimes it doesn't.

What adjustments are made by autolevels and how does it decide the values?

Can you explain how do you apply auto levels transformation?

I know how Photoshop does it because it is explained at its help. They cut the histogram at the tails by 0.5% of the values previous to the expansion. Are you making any of this? It is important to me to know if I will loos some values if I apply auto-levels and how many.

Congratulations for your work!
Yes i cut histogram too
