Channels Palette Esta información está disponible solamente en inglés. La version en español aparecerá pronto.
The Channels palette is only available for Home Deluxe и Business licenses.
The Channels palette lets you view and edit the image in separate channels. A channel is a halftone image that contains the brightness information of component colors. The channel list contains the composite image, the separate channels of the color mode (RGB, CMYK, Lab, Grayscale) and the current layer transparency (alpha channel).
The active (editable) channel will be highlighted in gray in the list. To select another channel click on its name.

CMYK Channels |
The contents of a channel are displayed in shades of black and white. To edit a channel, use the usual drawing tools. Painting in the color white on a channel will result in 100% intensity of the corresponding color. Different shades of color result in varying color intensity. A black brush will completely remove a color channel.
