By being able to adjust the histogram windows size, finer details can be easier to distinguish. By also adding zoom functionality to the histogram, we could focus on one perticular area at a time, for instance shadows or highlights
When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool?
10 min ago, I really wanted to expand the histogram on the height
Current workaround
Are you using any workarounds or other solutions to achieve your goals in Capture One?
ooooh, yeah! that works perfectly sorry for my tired dev brain. Little bit sad that it won't keep the size when I drag it back. But I can live with that :)
Not a 3rd party. Literally drag the histogram out of the tool bar and release it anywhere over the photo. Resize and move all you want. Leave it there or drag it back onto the toolbar when done. You can do this with any of the tools.
Floating histogram tool? you mean like a 3rd party software/plugin?
I guess you could use the Curves Histogram, But then the question becomes why the dedicated Histogram exists if its not flexible enough to use. If people are falling back on 3rd party alternatives/ curve histograms, then the Histogram tool itself is not doing its job that well
The Curves Histogram can be easily resized. Also multiple instances of the tool can be deployed.
My impression is that the histogram shown there is perhaps more useful than the Histogram tool when working on adjustments but that may depend on how one likes to work.

Have you tried a floating histogram tool?
