Thanks again for another great tutorial!

thanks for the awesome content as always !

Thanks a lot for this demonstrative video, and for the tip to tweak the colors to increase the purity after filmic rgb or Sigmoid.

Very well-done video. Thanks.

Very intuitive. I'll like RGB Primaries a whole lot more than fumbling around with the channel mixer.

I can second that for sure. While channel mixer is way more powerful, power is nothing without control. Personally, I find the result of channel mixer still very difficult to imagine or 'predict', so I find myself avoiding it all together.

update video tut for new modules on 4.6.1 please. thanks! you have great videos! i'm newbie trying to learn.

Sounds rather like a tetra, nice! I'm getting super impressed with Darktable. Although I wish I understood how to make the interface better. I don't like the light look or the lowercase words hehe

I'm pretty sure you can find themes online, or add your own css code via settings.

Both can be changed in settings. To get proper uppercasing, just pick the Trucase version of English. There are also darker color schemes, but be aware that the light-ish grey default look is very deliberate (it's based on 50% grey), and if you change it you make it harder for your eyes/brain to properly assess saturation and contrast of the image, leading to images that don't look good elsewhere. It's explained in the manual in more detail.

The interface tries to be as close to middle gray as possible, to minimize brightness-related illusions (remember those "these grays are the same brightness!" illusions?). Though, yes, I do agree, the interface, if kept at the (professional-centric) defaults, it looks... meh to me, like an alpha version of software. One can change this by going to settings > general > theme. The text case stuff is in settings > general > interface language, select a "truecase" language :)) Seeing as this comment was 3 weeks ago, I'm sure you've had solutions to this already. So I'll be replying this for future reference xD

In the latest version of Darktable, Sigmoid already has a function similar to RGB-Primaries integrated. So there is no need anymore to duplicate the RGB-Primaries module to archive these results.

Thank you, I'm aware. However you are then limited to using Sigmoid, which is not always desirable.

Interesting. So purity seems like color calibration's colorfulness, but this new module has a handy per channel hue rotation slider, right?

As far as I understand, that's correct.

Right-clicking the "Duplicate" button on the processing module duplicates it, it's one less click but less annoying c;

It also work for presets. If you click in a preset, it duplicates the module with the preset applied.

I have been following Darktable since it began and i like the underky8ng tech but for gods sake they should work on their UI/UX. Typical open source mentality of not caring about appearance and easy workflow. Few UI/UX guys can be onboarded to the team to make it better.

Agreed. It's very powerful but in many cases too many options are presented. It presents as a technical signal processing tool more than an artistic one. Just some simple collapsing of more advanced and rarely used options would help reduce the visual cluttering.
