Perhaps there is a single English word for that? Maybe "tint"? Not being a native speaker I can't think of a good one. [btw, Scratch calls it "color effect" which is less specific]

Ah, thanks. For a command name, "shift hue" would be good. But I was looking for a name for a property that could be dialed up and down. Default would be 0, meaning no change. That analog TV term sounds right to me.

Looking forward to see you tomorrow :)
