The Equalize dynamic plug-in creates a layer that lets you adjust the contrast in underlying images. It does this by adjusting black and white points and distributing the brightness levels throughout the entire range of available levels.
The Equalize dynamic layer is applied to a rectangular selection.
The Equalize dynamic plug-in creates a histogram showing the number of pixels for each brightness level value. Equalize allows gamma adjustment, which lightens or darkens an image without changing highlights or shadows.
