U Point technology is a revolutionary new way to selectively edit images in a very fast, easy and natural manner.
The U Point technology powered Control Points let you identify and
isolate objects within a photograph by placing a Control Point on the
object or area to be affected. By analyzing the color, tonality, detail,
and location, the Control Point automatically determines where and how
to apply certain effects, based on your needs.
If you’re familiar with using more "painterly" methods
to apply effects to images (as in all other image editing software),
this can take a few minutes to get used to, however the learning will be
well worth it. Control points can be used to make changes such as changing
the contrast of clouds in the sky, darkening a background to make
your foreground objects "pop" more,
brightening objects that need a little extra help, or selectively
sharpening or blurring objects.

However, Control
Points can also be used to enhance fine, small details in an image,
such as isolated changes to a face or specific object. All Control
Points within the active image communicate with each other, providing
continuity of control over multiple objects throughout the image.
The
U Point powered Control Points in Sharpener Pro 3.0 can be used
to selectively apply or remove the sharpening effect, as well
as selectively apply different advanced sharpening techniques.
The
selection Control Points in the RAW Presharpener filter can be
used to selectively remove or apply the filter effect to any part
of the image.
The sharpening Control Points in the Output Sharpener filter
can be used to selectively apply or remove the output sharpening
as well as any advanced creative sharpening desired, providing
the complete control needed to create high-quality, professional
images without the need for complicated selections or layer masks.
