The program offers a wide range of Adjustments and Adjustment Layers for tone and color correction of images:

Match Color (only as an adjustment)
Equalize (only as an adjustment)
Desaturate (only as an adjustment)
All adjustments can be applied directly to the active layer with the Image -> Adjustments commands. You can also create an adjustment layer, that will affect the underlying layers without changing their contents, by selecting Layers -> New -> Adjustment Layer or using the button 
in the Layers panel.
When you select an adjustment from the list, the Settings Panel appears to the right by default. You can drag the panel to the place where you want it and the next time the panel will appear in the selected position.
It's possible to save the adjustment settings as Presets. Find all available presets in the drop-down list. If you modify the parameters, the preset name automatically changes to Custom, and the Save Custom Preset button 
appears next to the list. To save the current settings, press this button.
A new preset is automatically assigned a name (for example, Custom_1, Custom_2, etc.) that can be changed as needed by entering any combination of letters and numbers in the highlighted field. After pressing Enter, a new preset will appear in the drop-down list.
To remove a user preset, select it and press the Delete Custom Preset button 
.
Click 
to export user presets to a .presets file. To load the presets into the program, press on
