Step 4: Tone Mapping

The Tone Mapping Preview and Settings palette open in separate windows.

The Tone Mapping Settings palette on the left lets you adjust the settings and select the tone mapping method: the first tab is for the Details Enhancer method, the second tab for the Tone Compressor method.

The buttons in the bottom frame let you undo or redo settings, restore the default settings, and load and save presets.

The Tone Mapping Preview on the right shows a preview of the final tone mapped image. You can adjust the preview size using the radio buttons on top.

It is important to note that the preview is only an approximation -- the final result may slightly differ in the case of the Details Enhancer tone mapping method.
