Inside Lightroom, a new Last Edit function lets users re-apply a selected preset (or presets) that were recently used on an image onto a second image or set of images. You can adjust the chrominance and luminance of the targeted pixels underneath a Control Point, giving the user much finer control over local adjustments.Īlthough you can use the Nik Collection 4 as a standalone application or with Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop if you're using it in Photoshop, you now have access to what DxO calls 'Meta Presets.' These are accessible through the Nik Selective Tool and give direct access to 10 Photoshop actions that combine different filters from multiple Nik plugins in a single click. The technology, which allows users to apply local adjustments without manually creating masks, now includes Color Selectivity sliders. The U Point technology underpinning Control Points has been enhanced as well. You can also rename and group your Control Points, making it easy to keep your adjustments organized. This makes it easier to see your image and view adjustments in real-time. The image you're working on takes up much of the screen, and Control Points have been improved such that the sliders which used to be onscreen for adjustments are now on the right panel of the interface. Nik Viveza features a new user interface that is more modern and sleek. On the right side of the interface are all the sliders and Control Point tools users have come to expect from Nik plugins. Users can scroll and filter through all available presets, filter types, and favorites along the left side of the interface. The plugins now feature a modern interface that is both simpler and more functional. In Nik Collection 4, Viveza and Silver Efex feature revamped user interfaces.
