replaying a sequence of image modifications

[Iain Wood]

Hi,

I would like to be able to replay a sequence of modification steps on an image, with alterations to some of the steps. ie if I do this:

White balance
crop
levels
sharpen

then decide that actually I still have to much blue cast and I want to readjust the white balance, can I do this without having to manually redo the crop level and sharpen stages?

Or perhaps I decide that my image would be better with more negative space around my subject and I want to change the crop, but keep all the other steps.

Perhaps my only solution is to learn to get each stage right first time :-)  

Iain

Technically you can. But you'll get better results if you do white balance before and sharpening after modifying colour, brightness, contrast and the like.

Not the only one, but probably the best and quickest. ;-)

I still want to do the steps in the same order. My question is can I repeat that sequence of operations without having to set all the adjustments again. I want to be able to go back to the master copy, redo the white balance with new parameters, then redo the crop, levels and sharpen processes using the exactly the same parameters as before.
