How to get threshold view on curves in Capture One? ALT key doesn't work in C1 like in photoshop
I can do it in photoshop by moving the black and white cursor together with the ALT key and in the different channels; red - green - blue but I don't know how to do it in C1

That's because Capture One doesn't have that feature, I'm afraid.

Turn on Exposure Warning. Each channel will show an exposure highlight when you push it to clip. Dial back until the warning falls off. Works per channel or RGB and with Levels. It won't give you the black/white display from LR/PS but the net result is the same.

Indeed, Brian Jordan, you can.
Not quite as good as what you can do in LR/PS, in my view. One of the (few) things LR does a little better I think.

That is exactly what I have been doing. My only other "hack" is to place a color sampler on the "threshold" amount to just double check.

Ian Wilson I agree, kinda but I also think Adobe's threshold is a bit of junk science. Sure it gives you absolute values of 0 and 255 but very, very, very few displays and fewer still printers can push the deepest blacks or purest whites to absolute without losing detail a few steps before. Between you and me, I always felt it to be a bit of a gee whiz tool (my opinion!!!). That said, I do absolutely miss the LR threshold on sharpening and noise reduction.
Jed Best I'ver never thought of using the color sampler. That's pretty cool. Will give that a try!

Thank you all for answering and for the clarification.
