### Utilizing Standard Filters 1-20

* Parameter: *standard\_filter\_id*
* Enabled values: 1-20
* Disable value: 0
* 10 filters per row (e.g., first row: 1-10) 

{% hint style="info" %}
Filters 1-3 offer the most conservative colorizations, making them suitable defaults for various applications. Filter 1 is the most consistent choice. Filters 4-20 provide more vibrant colors but may be less robust. These 20 filters are the default options in the official Palette.fm.

* Disable value: 0
* 10 filters per row (e.g., first row: 1-10)&#x20;

### Auto Color Balancing

* Parameter: *auto\_color*
* Enabled value: true
* Disable value: false
* Example: Standard filters 1-20 with alternating auto\_color false and true. 10 per row.

{% hint style="info" %}
Comparisons are made in pairs. The first image has auto\_color set to false, while the second has it enabled. In Palette's official app, auto\_color is set to true by default. This setting enhances color balance, brings out softer colors, and adds a more vibrant appearance.

### Auto White Balancing

* Parameter: *white\_balance*
* Enabled value: true
* Disable value: false
* Example: Standard filters 1-20 with alternating *white\_balance* false and true. 10 per row.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: Comparisons are presented in pairs. The first image has white\_balance set to false, while the second enables it. In Palette's official app, white\_balance is set to false by default. Although less robust than auto\_color, this setting performs well with higher quality images, providing a cleaner appearance.

### Temperature Adjustment

* Parameter: *temperature*
* Enabled value: -1.0 - 1.0
* Disable value: 0.0
* Example: Standard filters 1-20 with temperature going from - 1.0 - 1.0

{% hint style="info" %}
Image temperature ranges from -1.0 to 1.0, with 0.0 disabling the adjustment. The official Palette app sets the default value at -0.1. Older images tend to lose contrast and appear flat in color. Applying a slightly colder filter on the mid-tones enhances image cleanliness and adds depth.

* Example: Standard filters 1-20 with saturation going from 0.0 - 2.0

### Reference Image

* Parameter: *image\_ref*
