I'm sure this has been requested before.

A simple 'post' slider similar to the glare control would be nice, curves would be even better!!

@bbuxton - you read my mind. See:

http://www.maxwellrender.com/forum/view ... hp?t=15512

for a perfect example.

Maybe a Macbeth cal card model and auto-white balancing as well. It would be sweet to be able to do a quick, low-res render of a scene to evaluate the lighting with a Macbeth card model, save the white balance profile, and then do the actual render of the scene and have automatic white balance adjustment with a profile saved from the low-res white card or color card render. That way if you use an "environment" lighting set-up you could save the white balance profile along with it to automatically post-process the high-range MXI natively from within Maxwell before tone-mapping, low-range conversion, etc.

Well, I guess this all is kind of post pro stuff, and generally I prefer to use
seperate tools for that.

However, in this case, I strongly agree!

As there is much more color information in an MXI than even in an HDR,
white balance would be a great feature indeed.
