The History panel shows all the Styles applied to the image, line by line, latest on top. The styles apply cumulatively.Īnd we can switch the left panel to show the image History: One of the neat things about the list of styles is that simply hovering the mouse pointer over any style will show you the effect it will have on the image in the miniature image window above the list of styles. The default settings for each style are reasonably sane but of course one can change them to one's tastes. And on the right we have the settings for each tool or style that we have used on the image. On the left we have a list of "Styles" which are a collection of neat effects that can be applied to the image.
In the center we have the image which is being edited.

The Help system is available at any time and is surprisingly complete: The layout is somewhat familiar: we have a folder selector panel on the left, on the bottom we can view the images in the selected folder, on the right LightZone displays the relevant information on the selected image file, including EXIF data, and the center panel displays the selected image itself in the case of a raw file it is displayed as developed with default settings. LightZone in Browse mode (click on image for full size screenshot). Like many other photo editors, LightZone starts up in Browse mode, where you can browse your folders for the files you wish to work on. Online support is available in the form of forums, and it has a growing, active user community. I am not sure what the hardware and OS requirements are for the Windows and Mac versions, but for the Linux version I believe any laptop or desktop PC that supports a recent Linux distribution should work fine.īy the way, LightZone is not in any way a stripped-down version of any commercial software: it is a full fledged raw developer and photo editing software, with a polished, pleasant user interface and a rather complete help. I downloaded and tested the Linux version, which installed and works without any problems on my self-assembled Ubuntu 12.10 Xeon workstation. It is available for Windows, Mac and Linux.
