I’m a video guy that does photos on the side and I’m shocked that Capture One doesn’t have Parade and Vectorscope

You make the histogram a floating tool (as any other tool) and resize it, e.g. put it on a second screen, full screen if you like.

Surely it would make more sense if your video software provided photo support?

@SFA Davinci actually does support photos. The workflow is just bad for photos. Capture One on the other hand does not support Parade or Vectorscope but it does have a better file management system. Basically Davinci does it all but lacks photo management. Capture One doesn’t do it it all, only photos, and lacks the proper color tools that are standard in video coloring which shouldn’t be that much different than photo coloring especially considering video is just a collection of photos.

Also I can’t judge saturation levels on a waveform, only a vectorscope.

Davinci looks extremely complex to me - but I'm not a video person.
What do they say about improving photo editing and asset management?

Actually their color is the best on the market. It’s actually really easy to edit any photo with DaVinci. I’ve talked to them about photos before and it has been considered. DaVinci is really easy to use, just need to wrap your head around nodes, very similar to layers, but better.
If DaVinci did file management I would edit all my photos on that. It’s just a better program for coloring. I paid last time for C1 v21 and it was a total let down. I’m gonna wait until something exciting comes out before upgrading again. v22 is very underwhelming so far

The only reason I stay on C1 is the file management. It’s the best in the game

Parade: a series of waveforms. Makes sense when you have a series of pictures forming a video. In a photo editing app you deal with single images, so we get a single waveform (histogram).
Would a (RGB) parade for a video of 1 frame long not be identical to a 'normal' waveform?A vectorscope is for demodulating chrominance (encoded as subcarrier) from video signals and helps you with making content which is NTSC/ PAL signal 'safe'. In photos we're not dealing with YCbCr/ YUV video signals but with RGB (or CMYK for print) info. There is no subcarrier signal in a photo file for the vectorscope to lock on to (or Cb and Cr channels in digital video to plot against each other.)

Permanently deleted userCapture One needs professional scopes for video guys like me who happen to take photos from time to time.
Given the number of times this has come up previously (ie never) I suspect that you're in a tiny subset of a tiny minority, and Capture One rarely changes to help two users.
If you want videocentric functionality, use something designed for that purpose: don't assume that your extremely niche requirements warrant a fundamental change to an avowedly photocentric programme.

The fact that you've bought Capture One and THEN decided it's not fit for your purposes, is 100% on you.

I need to correct myself, the histogram cannot be resized, not to a noteworthy size (but curver, color editor etc. can).
I try to get into darktable as an alternative or additional raw converter/image editor, and it has vectorscope, waveform, parade. And I actually find them useful for photo editing. I have no comparison to daVinci though.
Darktable is missing video like editing tools e.g. 3 way color balance, they use a lot of sliders.
Adrian, have you considered to manage your images with C1 and pass them to daVinci with the "Open with" command in order to edit them in a C1 daVinci C1 roundtrip?
