Process Toolbar

The Closedprocess toolbar enables you to apply a particular process to selected images in the Workspace, or to select multiple processes to run at once. If a particular set works well for a set of your images, you can save the group of processes for later use as a profile.

Note: The processes available in the Process Toolbar are calibrated to be effective on the majority of images. If the results seem to need more adjustment, you can try using the more customizable processes available in the Image Editor.
