ProcessList

The ProcessList element is the root element of a CTF file. It must contain at least one operator element.

Contains

In order:
  • Info. Optional, no more than one.
  • Description. Optional, any number.
  • InputDescriptor. Optional, no more than one.
  • OutputDescriptor. Optional, no more than one.
  • At least one or more operator elements, in any combination in the order in which they are to be applied.
    Note: The inBitDepth attribute of each operator must match the outBitDepth attribute of the previous operator in the chain. See Common Operator Attributes.

Contained By

Attributes

id
A unique identifier (required).
name
A nickname for the entire color transform (optional). This is used for display and selection in applications that support Autodesk Color Management.
version
Indicates the presence of Autodesk extensions to the Academy/ASC XML color transform format. Files with a value higher than that supported by the application are rejected.
inverseOf
The id attribute from another CTF file. It identities this transform as the inverse of the other one. This information is useful to the color management system to detect the case where a transform and then its inverse are applied, so the transform pair may be optimized out. It is an Autodesk extension to the Academy/ASC XML color transform format.
