Controls

scale
Each scale is a real instrument: iron is a thermal camera, viridis a modern scientific ramp, exposure marks only the dangerous ends
steps
Zero is a continuous ramp; above it the picture bands into isotherms, which is what lets you read a value instead of a mood
low
The bottom of the measured window. Everything below it flattens to the first colour of the scale
high
The top of the measured window. Narrow the window and small tonal differences fill the whole scale
keep
How much of the picture shows through the scale, so you can see what is being measured
contrast
A number from -1 to 1, 0 by default.
