Create the tool "Vectorscope with skin indicator" for more accurate skin tones and easier handling of skin tones Merged

What problem do you see this solving?

Scanning multiple images in regards to the skin tones can be a tough task if the lighting changes a lot. Having an objective base to read the skin tones while editing will definitely improve your workflow for portraits, weddings, events, anything with people in your images.

When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool?

This literally affects me every time I am shooting portraits.

Current workaround

Are you using any workarounds or other solutions to achieve your goals in Capture One?

Actually, I have bought third party software that scans my screen (or a part of it) and displays a vectorscope with the skin indicator. However, this does not seem to be veryaccurate...

    Yes please! I'm missing this feature every day! How come this feature is not available in C1?

    For those who never seen one, it's another way to display the distribution of (dominating) colours in your image.

    ...just to illustrate how this would look like:
