Can you change the color of an image without changing it in photoshop first?

I have created a link for Indesign using Photoshop. It is basically a plain black graphic that is placed over an aerial to highlight the represented water. It is possible to change the color of this graphic without actually going back into photoshop?

Another option is to make a path around the image, so that you have a vector shape with full control over fill and transparency.
You can do the path in Ps, save as clipping path, bring into InD, position, convert clipping path to frame, select and delete content, fill, fade...
It may be easier to do the path in InD, but perhaps accurate positioning over the area you're after would be an issue.

  • I can't change the color of this vectorimage without changing the vectorimage

    Hello,
    I have a strange problem. I designed this logo but it is impossible to change the color http://www.acmeurope.com/logocolor.ai . The strokes change then completely. And when undoing, the original form is lost.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!
    Best regards,
    Dirk

    Hi Dirk--no idea either. Deleting the copy below the artboard didn't do it for me. Strange. But I wouldn't have built it this way either, not understanding how it was built in the first place.
    I redrew it with round butt caps on another layer. It is stable.
    Take care, Mike

  • Can I change the color of an image to a specific color code?

    Since I was unable to do this in Photoshop, I was wondering if there was a way in Flash to simply change the color of an image to a speciifc color code.  The image is more or less a simple line with rounded corners.  It is only composed of 1 color.  Does anyone know if it can be done with Flash?

    Shouldn't be a problem to do it in Photoshop or Flash. Since you couldn't do it in PS, I'm guessing that there is more to it than you are making obvious here.
    But in Flash you would import it, make it into a movieclip or graphic. Then apply a tint from the color effect portion of the properties panel.

  • How do I create a duplicate image inside the same page? Then how do I change the color of that image

    how do I create a duplicate image inside the same page? Then how do I change the color of that image from black to red?

    Hello there!
    Here is one way to create a duplicate image and colorize it. As you can see below, I have one image right now, that I want to duplicate.
    My layers panel looks like below.
    To duplicate your image, click the downward arrow on the right side of your Layer Panel.
    Select Duplicate Layer. This will duplicate the layer that the image is on.
    Select "OK" to approve the duplication.
    As you can now see in the Layers panel, the image is duplicated. The new layer is now at the top of the Layer panel.
    Now to colorize your image, go to Window > Adjustments.
    The Adjustments panel will now be opened. Select the Hue and Saturation icon as seen circled in red.
    The Hue and Saturation propertied panel will be opened. I selected "Colorize", and adjusted the hue and saturation bar to achieve the level red in my photo.
    As you can see below, the image is now red.
    Now i want to make sure only ONE of my image layers is red. I moved the Hue and Saturation layer to only be on top of the bottom layer. The image on the top layer now will not be affected by the red.
    Select the move tool, so I can now move the image layers so we can see both of them.
    With each image layer selected, you can take the move tool and move the images. I moved mine on top of eachother and you can see my red layer (bottom) and the non red layer (top).
    I hope that helps. i have also included helpful links.
    Please post back with any questions,
    Janelle

  • Changing the color of an image in EPS format using Illustrator

  • Can you edit the color of the bottom play bar on a slide once you assign the cpCmndShowPlaybar to 0

    Can you edit the color of the bottom play bar  on a slide once you assign the cpCmndShowPlaybar to 0. When I assign the slide this action it shows a grey shape at the bottom hiding the playbar controls, but I would like to make that color white to blend in with the white background on my webpage. How do you change the color?

    It is not possible to change the border color by an (advanced) action, sorry. If you do not mind, you could choose the white color for the bottom border from the start. When the playbar is showing, provided it it stretched, it will cover up this bottom border.

  • How can I rearrange the pages in a PDF without changing the assigned paged numbers.

    How can I rearrange the pages in a PDF without changing the assigned paged numbers? These correspond to the original document folio numbers.

    In theory it would be possible to 'record and play back' the page numbers using a folder-level script, but it's far from trivial. You would have to use the doc.movePage() function - presumably driven by a dialog box - to do the page shuffling so there was a way to track what was being done, then swap the page 'labels' of the two affected pages. That's where it gets messy.
    We have functions in the JSAPI which can read and write the page label, but they don't do things in a logical way. The 'getPageLabel()' function simply returns a string, but the 'setPageLabel()' method expects to be told the numbering scheme, prefix, etc. You'd have to parse the string and work out what scheme it was implementing.

  • How can I change a color of an image without affecting the texture, but based on a pantone pick?

    Here is an image of a paintbrush stroke that shows the texture of the paint.  I want to change the color to a specific pantone green in order to match a specific color pallet.  Rather than just using hue saturation to "guess" at the color (no pantone number), is there a way I can actually set a base color without losing the texture?

    You can only use the picker values as a guide on an image with many tones.
    I presume you are going to print as cmyk, so find the mix of the target colour and make a 'solid colour' adjustment layer and choose that mix. Then set the adj layer properties to 'hue' which should do it.
    Otherwise, add a 'hue/saturation' layer (and click on colorize in the adj layer palette) and move the slider to suit.
    If you convert to greyscale, you could colorize the pic with the spot colour too.

  • How do I change the color of an image

    I have some photos that I would like to change the color of, so that I can have the same image in multiple colors. How do I do this using Photoshop CS4?

    Using a Solid Color Layer set to the Blend Mode Color is one of several options in general …
    But maybe you could post a screenshot and elaborate one what you are trying to achieve.

  • How do I change the color of an image while still keeping some detail within the image

    I am trying to take a handprint such as the one below and change the color of the handprint to say a light pink (or any color) but I want to keep most of the detail of the fine lines that make this handprint unique.  The lines could even just come out as white as below.  The main thing is to change the overall color while maintaining the fine details.  I have been trying to accomplish this for over a week now in Photoshop Elements 11 and I have been unsuccessful as anything I do just totally color fills the image, which does not keep any details of the handprint.  Thank you to anyone who may be able to help me. 

    Hello again,
    Unfortunately, I am not getting the same result as you and I was wondering if you would take a look at what I'm doing and maybe you could tell me what I'm doing wrong.
    I go to file, open and bring in my file
    Go to Select, Layer, New, Layer
    Name = Layer 1
    Mode = color
    ok
    Two things then seem to go wrong:
    1.  I chose my foreground color, but when I go to paint, a smart brush setting takes over so I had to change my paint color in that setting - to pink.  also my foreground box color will then change to gray
    2.  So then I do have a pink handprint, but when I change the opacity, it only effects the pink - and not the black on the handprint (pic below).  I want the black to go away and have only the color there with the unique lines of the handprint which you were able to do.
    I'm not that handy in layering so maybe i'm doing something wrong there - just not real sure.
    Can you help?  I liked the way your handprint came out - if I could copy that with any color that would be great and exactly what I'm looking to do.
    Thank you so much.

  • Can you disable the color picker in code view?

    One of the  things that slows me down in Dreamweaver is the color picker in code view. it pops up when I'm trying to type a quick colour - like #fff, and causes a pause in my system for 5 seconds (effectively locking up my system) while it thinks about selecting a color. is there a way I can just stop the color picker from popping up at all? I never use it to pick colors.

    There is no way to disable the colour picker in Code view. However, you can successfully prevent it from popping up by changing the delay in Preferences:
    Setting the delay affects all code hints, but they pop up as soon as you start typing. However, I found that a delay of about 1 second was sufficient to suppress the colour picker.
