# Adjust Display Window

Back to MIB | User Guide | Panels | View Settings

## Overview

The Adjust Display window lets you fine-tune the contrast of your dataset for each color channel individually. A histogram at the bottom shows intensity values for the currently displayed slice, helping you visualize adjustments.

- Demo

## List of widgets

- Color channel: choose the color channel to adjust.

- Min slider and edit box (define the black point)
  Sets the black point; intensities below this are rendered black.

  - on the slider sets it to 1.
  - on the histogram sets this value.
  - - Enter values (including negative) directly in the edit box.

- Min button: assigns the channel’s minimal intensity as black.

  - on the button opens a menu to exclude a percentage of low-intensity points.

- Max slider and edit box (define the white point)
  Sets the white point; intensities above this are rendered white or pure color.

  - on the slider sets it to the maximum for the image class.
  - on the histogram sets this value.
  - Enter values (including above max) in the edit box.

- Max button: assigns the channel’s maximal intensity as white.

  - on the button opens a menu to define the white point from the histogram.

- Gamma: adjusts gamma: <1 enhances high intensities, >1 enhances low intensities.

  - on the slider sets it to 1.
- Link: links all channels so Min/Max/Gamma changes apply to all simultaneously.
- Log: switches histogram between linear and logarithmic scales.
- Auto update: enables automatic histogram updates after each slice change.
- Update: updates the histogram for the current slice.
- Current: recalculates intensities for the selected channel on the current slice using specified parameters.
- All slices: recalculates intensities for the selected channel across all slices using specified parameters.

## Histogram

The histogram plots intensity values (X-axis) against pixel counts (Y-axis) for the image shown in the Image View Panel — not the full slice.

Warning

Adjustments to Gamma are not reflected here.

Set Min and Max values for the histogram via:

- Manual entry in the edit boxes.
- Slider adjustments.
- (to set the minimum intensity, i.e. the black point) or (to set the maximum intensity, i.e. the white point) clicks on the histogram.
