How can I replace a color with a pattern fill?

Hi everyone, thanks for any responses in advance!
I've created quite a detailed design that works with 4 pixels per cm and 16 colors, canvas size 120x170cm. I'm wanting to replace all of a single color with a pattern, is there a way to do this?
I can replace a color with another flat color by using adjustments etc... but I want to fill the entire of one color area with a pattern instead. The only way I can think to do this would be to use the magic wand tool to select every pixel of the same color, then create a new layer and overlay with a fill of the desired pattern, however as the design is so detailed it would take me an awful long time to select each color!
Can anyone suggest a quicker more efficiant way to do this?
Thanks!

  • How can i control background colors with items (registry.dat)

    Hello Evry one.....
    plzzzzzzzzz help.
    how can i control background colors with display items
    in registry.dat
    like app.ui.requiredFieldvABGCOLOR=255.0.0
    how can i control background colors with others items ????
    thanks.

    The iPhone has a "remote" app that lets you control Keynote on a Mac, but not on another iOS device (iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch).
    There are some apps that let you control limited content on another iOS device - but the content has to be within the app. You might check out SyncPad - perhaps you can import the presentation into it and then control it on the iPad.

  • Illustrator CS2 - How do I replace a color with another color?

    Most of the image uses a gray color. I'd like everything colored with grey, to be black. How do I replace gray color w/ black?

    One way would be to select one object of the gray color, then choose, Select > Same Fill Color. This will select everything of that color. Click the black swatch to change them all at once.

  • How can I replace column value with a particular value in SQL

    Hi Roshni,
    I guess this CASE clause can be simulated by a DECODE and also it is very easy to use.
    Refer -- http://www.techonthenet.com/oracle/functions/decode.php
    select decode(t1.state,t2.state_id,t2.state_name), t1.count_id
    from <table_2> t2, (select state,count(id) count_id
    from <table_name>
    where composite_dn= <composite_dn_name>
    group by state) t1
    where t1.state = t2.state_id;HTH

  • How can I replace the Portal with completely new Flash website?

    Can I replace the Portal with completely new Flash website? My customer do not want the JSP UI. Instead, he wants a completely new designed Flash site. Is it possible to do it? How can I deploy a new portal to cover the current one?

    If you have a look at some of the code examples which do the equivalent of site maps, you could in theory replace the whole portal desktop with some sort of Flash framework which reads the user's role structure at run time.
    I think it is useful to remember that the SAP portal is primarily a business application launchpad. It does that very well. Trying to make it into a Flash launchpad will be challenging.

  • How can I replace iCloud contacts with up-to-date contacts on my Macmini?

    Originally I used iCloud when it first was released. My contacts went into the cloud.  I stopped using iCloud and maintained my Contacts on my Macmini. All of my up-to-date information which includes additional contacts and revisions are on the Mac mini.  iCloud wants to work with my old information but I'd rather replace the information on iCloud with the information on my computer.  How can I replace what's in iCloud with my edited and updated information?

    Open Address Book on your Mac, click All Contacts, select a single contact, press Command-A to select them all (they should all be highlightes), then go to File>Export>Export vCard and save this on your desktop.  Then delete all your iCloud contacts by going to icloud.com on your computer, log into your iCloud account and open Contacts, click on All Contacts, to the right click on any single contact to select it, click on the gear-shaped icon at the bottom left and choose Select All, then press the Delete key on your keyboard to delete them all.  Then click on the gear-shaped icon again, choose Import vCard and navigate to the vCard you saved earlier to import your contacts to iCloud.

  • How do I replace a color with another color?

    I'm not having any luck finding this.  Is there a simple way to replace a color (like a red shirt) with another color (green shirt)?  Somehow I'm not seeing this anywhere.  I know how to do it in Premiere Pro.

    You can use the Color board ("corrector"). Click on the Eye dropper icon and click and drag over the t-shirt (you'll see some feedback of what's being selected.) You can hold down the shift key and click/drag (slightly) on other spots to add more to the selection (or hold down the option key to subtract from the selection.) You can also use the Color Mask slider to add or subtract from the selection.
    Then click on the right arrow for the Correction and in the Color Adjustment, click and drag the Global control to change the color.

  • How can you replace v.25 with an earlier version, say v.23 for my business purposes?

    How can I install an earlier MAC Version of Firefox, e.g. 23 or earlier ? and then Uninstall the latest Version 25?
    According to the Health Insurer I charge for services, Version 25 cannot work for them.

    Best is to use the latest Firefox release for browsing on the internet and install an older version alongside that uses its own profile.
    See this article about how to install multiple versions on Mac OS X:

  • How do I replace image color with an exact html color code?

    I simply want to change the color of a small pic to an existing html color code, 3399CC.  The pic is very simple, and only has one color.  In Photoshop CS4, I go to:  Image -> Adjustments -> Replace Color.  For the new replacement color, when I type in 3399CC, it doesn't give me that color - it gives some other shade of that color.  (I can tell because I use a program that tells me the exact html code a color is when I hover my mouse over it).  It seems the only way to really get the color you want is to adjust the sliders (hue, saturation, and lightness).  But it'd be practically impossible to play around with every increment of those sliders until I get the exact color code.  
    There's got to be a way to simply enter the html color code and have the pic changed to that color.  Does anyone have any idea?

    Turns key.  WhirrRRRrrrrRRRrrrr....  Nothing.  (I answered in the other thread)
    Perhaps I've had too much coffee today, because I just got a clear vision of Bart Simpson, at the board, chalk in hand...

  • How can i replace original media with newly transcoded optimised media in the timeline?

    I have transcoded new optimised media (Prores 422) after importing and partly editing some original Canon H.264 material. I now want to replace the original H.264 edit with the matching new pro res 422 clips so I can playback more smoothly on a MBPro. I can't find a menu command in FCP X to allow me to do this other than during the initial import process. But it does allow you to create transcoded material after the initial import; how do you link/replace to it?

    Welcome to one great feature of FCP X: what you are asking for is not needed. It is done for you automatically.
    When you have selected "original or optimized media" selected in your preferences, FCP X will use optimized media if available, or original media if you haven't transcoded. So really there is no step 3 :-)

  • How do you replace a color with transparency in Elements 12?

    I've gotten this far but is there any way to make it so that I just have the black drawing with the white background transparent? I am going to put the drawing over another image so obviously I need to get rid of the white!

    In your case, replacing with transparency is the same as deleting : if you are in a normal layer (not background), select white with the  magic wand and delete. Alternatively, inverse selection of white and paste on a new layer : shortcut Ctrl J.

  • How can I replace navigation buttons with obvious ones?

    Here's the web page:  http://josephskibell.com/. I've just taken over this website for a friend and opened it in Dreamweaver but the code is such that the existing four little square navigation buttons at the top of the page don't show up in design view (these change the book images).  The client wanted some more "obvious" buttons there because people are not understanding that those little squares are buttons.  Arrows may work better.  Can anyone advise?
    thanks

    Open scroll_buttons.css.
    The image sprite used is here:
    http://josephskibell.com/images/navigator.png
    My advice is to make a bigger sprite and change height and width sizes in your CSS code.
