Gel Swatch Library HD (for the iPad)
The Gel Swatch Library HD, is available for immediate download from the Apple app store. The Gel Swatch Library HD picks up where our popular Gel Swatch app left off, providing a larger, higher-definition platform to choose, compare and organize gel colors for any size project.
Gel Swatch Library HD offers a number of improvements and new features over the original Gel Swatch Library for the iPhone or iPod, including a powerful new Projects feature. This allows users to assign gel colors to multiple project folders, create notes for each of those gels, rearrange, add and delete within the folder and then email the entire project as a PDF with color swatches, codes, names and notes intact.
In addition, a color picker now allows users to tap anywhere within HSL color space, with Gel Swatch Library HD producing a list of similar gel colors for the user to browse.
We’ve also expanded our list of Lee dealers to include the entire planet, with location, telephone number, web address and email addresses for Lee filter dealers worldwide.
Plus a more powerful search, large SED curves in both portrait and landscape views, faster comparison of multiple colors and a lot more.
