Value Shift

Shift V

I call this feature "shift v" and it really means a pixel-by-pixel shifting of value based on the original image. Since the program works from regions instead of pixels, it means a single region can have a uniform color. I consider this more of a post-processing step to add more detail to an image. I've stopped liking this feature as the program has progressed but it can be useful sometimes. Here's a starting example using the features we've discussed so far:

This feature is all or nothing, there are no real parameters. It takes each region and compares the average color against the original pixels. If the average is lighter/darker it will shift the value down or up, depending. The effect is to add more detail to the resulting image.

Here's two closeups side-by-side:
