Research direction
Locate the histogram rendering entry point used while editing separate RGB channels in Pix, then inspect how the red channel is drawn against the dark gray background. Done means the red histogram is clearly visible for users with common red-green colourblindness without changing the other channel behavior.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
When editing an image in Pix using the curves, the rendering of the red channel (when editing separate RGB channels) is nearly impossible to see for me (against the dark gray background). I imagine that (nearly) all other users with the same type of coulourblindness (aprox. 5% of the male population) suffer the same experience. Note: I don't have an exotic form of colourblindness, just the very common red-green colourblindness.
Proposed solution: use a brighter tone of red that stands out against the dark gray background of the histogram.
