Overview
The Enhancement tool can be used as a component within Fluidfit flows to optimize images at any stage of processing. It provides fine-grained controls that allow users to adjust visual attributes such as brightness, contrast, color balance, sharpness, and tonal ranges, enabling best-in-class image output quality.
This section illustrates the impact of each enhancement parameter using example input and output images.

Brightness
Description:Controls the overall lightness or darkness of the image.
Usage Example:
Set the Brightness value to 100 to increase the overall luminance of the image. The resulting change in brightness is reflected in the output image, as shown in the comparison below.
Additional scenarios demonstrated:
Brightness set to -100, resulting in reduced image luminance
Contrast
Description:Adjusts the difference between light and dark regions in the image.
Usage Examples:
Set Contrast to 100 to enhance separation between highlights and shadows.
Set Contrast to -100 to reduce tonal variation and flatten the image.
Sharpness
Description:Enhances or softens edge definition within the image.
Usage Example:
Set Sharpness to 100 to increase edge clarity and detail visibility, as shown in the output image.
Saturation
Description:Controls the intensity of colors in the image.
Usage Examples:
Set Saturation to 100 to amplify color intensity.
Set Saturation to -100 to remove color information and produce a grayscale image.
Opacity
Description:Adjusts the transparency level of the image.
Usage Example:Set Opacity to 50 to reduce image opacity, allowing background elements to become partially visible.
Gaussian Blur
Description:Applies a blur effect to soften image details.
Usage Example:
Set Gaussian Blur to 100 to significantly blur the image, reducing sharpness and fine details.
Color Channel Adjustments (RGB)
Description:Allows independent manipulation of Red, Green, and Blue color channels.
Usage Examples:
Red / Green / Blue = 50 → Increases the contribution of the selected color channel
Red / Green / Blue = -50 → Reduces the contribution of the selected color channel
These adjustments help fine-tune color balance and correct color dominance issues.
Midtones
Description:Adjusts brightness levels in the mid-range tonal areas of the image.
Usage Examples:
Set Midtones to 100 to brighten mid-range areas
Set Midtones to -100 to darken mid-range areas
Shadows
Description:Controls brightness in the darker regions of the image.
Usage Examples:
Set Shadows to 100 to lift detail in dark areas
Set Shadows to -100 to deepen shadow regions
Highlights
Description:Adjusts brightness in the brightest areas of the image.
Usage Examples:
Set Highlights to 100 to enhance bright regions
Set Highlights to -100 to reduce highlight intensity and recover detail
Summary
The Enhancement tool provides comprehensive image adjustment capabilities that can be applied flexibly within Fluidfit flows. By combining multiple controls, users can precisely tailor image appearance to meet quality, branding, and visual consistency requirements at an enterprise scale.
