How do I change the saturation of an image in Photopea?

To change the saturation of an image in Photopea, go to the "Image" menu, then select "Adjustments," and finally, choose "Hue/Saturation." A window will appear, allowing you to adjust the saturation level using a slider.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

1. Open your Image: Begin by opening the image you want to edit in Photopea (https://www.photopea.com/).

2. Navigate to Adjustments: In the top menu bar, click on "Image." This will open a dropdown menu.

3. Select "Adjustments": Within the "Image" menu, find and click on "Adjustments." Another submenu will appear.

4. Choose "Hue/Saturation": From the "Adjustments" submenu, select "Hue/Saturation." Alternatively, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + U (or Cmd + U on Mac).

5. Adjust the Saturation Slider: A "Hue/Saturation" window will open. In this window, you'll find a "Saturation" slider. Drag the slider to the left to decrease saturation (making the colors more muted and eventually grayscale) or to the right to increase saturation (making the colors more vibrant).

6. Preview and Confirm: As you adjust the slider, the changes will be reflected in your image in real-time. This allows you to preview the effect of the saturation adjustment.

7. Click "OK": Once you're satisfied with the saturation level, click the "OK" button to apply the changes. If you don't want to apply the changes click "Cancel".

Photopea applies the changes directly to the layer. For non-destructive editing, consider using adjustment layers. You can create a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer by clicking the New Adjustment Layer icon at the bottom of the layers panel (it looks like a circle that's half black and half white) and selecting "Hue/Saturation." This allows you to modify the adjustments later without permanently altering the original image data.
