Invention of new software based on Photoshop if any image of colour retouching is uploaded on that it will show all the tool used in that
There should be a software which will be based upon the Adobe Photoshop . In which there should be an image uploader in that software and when any colour Retouching photo uploaded on that It shows about the complete tool used in that photo and at how much value these are used for that photo or a complete graph of that photo should be displayed.

The PS History panel also provides information on edits applied, but not the actual values. It's also lost when the file is closed.

I'm back again. and I see what you're trying to do. I agree that most developments are personal, and should not be made public to others as companies want to preserve their own techniques.
But, I have a few tips: what I do on a personal level may help you. I save each movement into a file of its own and I name the file what I did to it, and I keep all those files in one folder per each photo edited. That way I keep a record of what I did, and then I can go back to any file to make changes needed and to finished it differently if needed, as a customer can make a request.
This reminds me of the time when I was at Microsoft and on-loan to another company to help test their software. We were being supervised as the company didn't want any of us to walk away with their source code and to copy their software. So we were under a strict agreement if you can imagine. We simply didn't share their source code and it was easy to see.
You will be sharing highly classified information of your own which you wouldn't share with another. Likewise, it wouldn't benefit another's edit since two edits are never the same. You will find this to be true if you have edited hundreds like myself, and I have done a lot for my customers and I have supervised other technical editors who work for me. Yet none of them have ever done their edits in the same way as another. Even if we thought we could duplicate the routine, it always is different. And that's why I love this business, because each day is totally different for me.
For yourself, you might save lots of frustration over this as you will see in the future. You will see how it will actually wreck your business sharing your work with others.
In this forum, I don't mind sharing what I know about Photoshop because I have been using it since 1996 and for a long time I have found routines but they are merely how to begin and the finish is never the same. I don't think a history of edits will be accepted well, especially by different companies. But if you want to use that for yourself, Light Room has that. I use Photoshop, and Elements and Light Room in a combination of uses. Also, I have lots of versions of Elements so I can multi-task my photos, one photo per software program. It's most beneficial to me to do this in this way.
I help my customers to begin on Photoshop Elements although the majority get stuck right away with the clone tool and they never go further than the beginner's mode. I keep pushing them into Expert Mode to load all of the tools at once, but they are reluctant. Think of those who would be totally intimidated by your own editing history and how it wouldn't benefit a beginner. Likewise, an expert will always tell you what they do best and they would argue with their own methods, and it's always going to be different than your own. But I don't mind teaching the tools in the program and this forum is for those who want to get more out of it, who don't understand it as well as the rest of us.
Back at Microsoft, I had a test lab and all of our labs were different. As we would visit each other's, we got tips on how to setup a lab but they never worked into our own because we were stuck in our own ways. This is why I don't think a Photoshop history would benefit another. They are hard to duplicate. They are personal. They are like a patented idea. They are secret to some. Keep your secrets. And to coin an old Microsoft slogan, "keep current".
Happy computing,
Steve Lehman, MCSE

There are plenty of books, videos, "how to" for almost everything. And then, most of us who help in this forum could write our own books too. Almost all of us began with a book or two and then branched out to learn it on our own. Most users of Elements want to learn at their own pace.
I had a student in July, who had reluctantly stayed in the beginner area of PSE14, and when I encouraged her to advance to Expert Mode, she looked at it as if she was seeing a foreign language, then went back to Beginner Mode only because she wanted a hobby not a career. She wanted to learn it on her own. Asking her to read a book or see a video was out of the question. She would rather spend her days gazing at the screen. If take the romance out of their hobby by forcing them to advance to bigger and better, they will never to return to it. It's a huge hobby market. If we force it onto them, that market will go flat. I say stay with what's on the market for videos and books. If you don't like the books that are out there, write your own and get what's not in other books into instruction. That's your valuable metadata.
