Hi. The modal dialogue for Black and White has the "Colorize" option and for that "Hue" and "Saturation" sliders.

But Black and White as an adjustment layer does NOT offer the Saturation slider. At least not in my CS4 Extended on Win XP.

Can that be or am i missing something?

Thanks!

Why would you need a saturation slider for a B&W adjustment? Anyway, if the color sliders doesn’t do what you want, you can always add a Hue / Saturation adjustment layer beneath the B&W adj. layer.

Hi Mathias, as mentioned, the Saturation slider is useful if you use the "Colorize" option within the Black-and-White dialogue. It’s convenient to have it, easier than starting another adjustment layer.
