Emulsion v0.4.4

Added

  • Saturation qualifier for selective hue bands: min/max knees restrict a band to colors above a given saturation, so skin tones or pastels can be excluded from a strong hue adjustment
  • Transfer-curve preview in the Scanner section, showing the black/white point and softness curve as you drag the sliders

Changed

  • Shadow inflator now selects pixels by perceived brightness (Oklab L) instead of linear luminance, so the threshold tracks how dark a pixel actually looks; the slider now runs 0–1 (default 0.27, matching the previous selectivity)
  • Wider ranges for Black Point (up to 0.15) and White Softness (up to 0.5)

Fixed

  • Black Softness no longer lifts true blacks — shadows are compressed toward black instead of floating above it, and inputs at or below the black point map to exactly 0
  • White Softness no longer lets highlights drift past white; the shoulder now eases onto 1 exactly
  • Black and white soft knees can no longer cross at large softness values
