# Accessing the Colour Warper

Use the Colour Warper to modify the colour content in your clips. You can manipulate colour content with intuitive controls that provide precise colour correction, and view histograms that help you visualize your image's colours. You can also output a matte corresponding to selected colours.

You can access the Colour Warper as a ConnectFX node that you drag and drop into the process tree or the Modular Keyer's processing pipeline. Access the Colour Warper from the Modular Keyer to remove colour spill, or access it from ConnectFX to modify the colour content of your clips.

The Colour Warper can be accessed from the following locations:

- The Timeline, using a Colour Correct timeline effect.
- Modular Keyer, Action or Paint.
- ConnectFX.

When working with large images, you can free up additional screen space with the Overlay user interface. This feature is exclusive to the Colour Corrector and the Colour Warper. The Colour Warper's Overlay user interface is not available when accessing the Colour Warper as a ConnectFX node.

For details on using the Overlay user interface, see Overlay User Interface.

You can access the following menus from the Colour Warper menu.

NoteIf you are accessing the Colour Warper from ConnectFX or the Modular Keyer, you use the Setup menu for the node to adjust vectorscope and hue cube settings, as well as update colour information. You cannot use the Setup menu for the node to crop the colour correction area or invert a matte.
