Refresh the histogram display

When a histogram is read from a cache instead of the document’s current state, the Cached Data Warning icon  appears in the Histogram palette. Histograms based on the image cache are displayed faster and are based on a representative sampling of pixels in the image. You can set the cache level (from 2 to 8) in the Performance preference.

 To refresh the histogram so that it displays all of the pixels of the original image in its current state, do one of the following:
  • Double-click anywhere in the histogram.

  • Click the Cached Data Warning icon .

  • Click the Uncached Refresh button .

  • Choose Uncached Refresh from the Histogram palette menu.

For information about cache level, see Histogram palette overview.
