Change Gradient Color

As you would expect I have a gradient with several colors. Is there a way to change the colors? I now I can change the colors in Illustrator CS5. The colors are now shades of green. I want blue. I want to restrict the colors between a dark and light blue. I know logically a computer can do this but not sure about Illustrator.

I watched the Video. It was not very information when you consider the Help offered by Adobe on the Gradient Tool. But the issue is not the Gradient tool necessarily.
I'm trying to replace the actual colors on a button that is a gradient. Maybe I should have said "Replace or Substitute” colors. Not create a gradient.
But thanks for ther help.

Problem changing gradient color in Numbers

Has anyone else had a problem with being able to change the gradient colors for several rows and then not being able to change the gradient color? I set the gradient to go from snow to sky and then I decided to change some rows so the gradient went from snow to lavendar but the color won't change from sky. I can change snow to different colors; but I can't change the sky to any other color.
If I open a new Numbers file, then I CAN change the gradient colors. I tried saving, closing, and re-opening my file but that doesn't seem to fix it. If I copy the cells and paste them into a new, empty file, I can change the gradient colors.
Any ideas? I have a workaround so it isn't critical but I've got a lot of color coding to do and don't want to keep pasting my table into new files when this happens again.
Thanks!

What is the meaning of the small grey triangle at the top-right corner of the colored rectangle just above the Image menu in the Colrs pane?
A very good question! From what I can tell, it indicates that the displayed color is taken from the 'device' color profile, or at least relates to that profile in some way. There doesn't seem to be any way to choose directly from the list of available profiles from the spectrum image palette shown in your example, but if you switch to the color sliders mode, you will see a small square icon next to the slider type popup, which is itself a popup list of profiles.
One of those profiles will be a device profile (for instance "Device CMYK" if the CMYK sliders are displayed), & it seems that any color chosen when that (& only that?) profile is selected will display the grey triangle.
From what I can tell, the profile chosen from this popup sometimes remains in effect, & sometimes not, when switching among the color choosing modes. For the spectrum mode, it appears that most of the spectrum is in the device profile's space ... or something like that.
I really don't understand any of this very well!

Can't Change Gradient Colors

when i go to make a gradient, i can only choose the preset
colors...when i try to click on the little color ball on the box
that pops up where you can adjust the gradient, nothing
happens...anyone have a solution?

The little multi-colored ball that, when you get it picking
colors in the Mixer palette brings up the system color picker? When
you first start to edit a gradient, that symbol is just there to
indicate that the two little "paint chips" below the display
gradient are what you click on to choose the colors. The two paint
chips above the gradient choose the opacity.
You can click and drag these paint chips to move them, but if
you just click, you get the color picker.
I'm not sure I made sense, there....

Have a "sphere" with gradients, how do I change the colors?

I have an Illustrator file of a sphere though its not technically a sphere. Its a circle but when clicked, the frame edges that show on it seems to show is as being one, really dont know how to describe this. Its best to look at the attached screen shot. There are gradients also involved. Normally I would just change out the swatches but no swatches were saved for it. I have a better than average understanding of Illustrator and vector files but this one is throwing me for a loop. How would I go about changing the colors of the gradients in this?

There you are.
But first check with the appearance panel by first selecting the art and the in the appearance panel see if it has a 3D effect.
BY the way if you want to let us see you screenshot click on the camera icon and attache the file that way.
under Appearance, I have "Mesh Points" and "Mixed Appearances". Nothing seems to be grouped so i cant seem to separate what those mixed appearances are.
I looked at the gradient panel. It does show dark to light orange but it doesnt show any little tabs to adjust or if its liner or radial.

Gradient Color Picker

Dear Community,
i have a Problem with Illustrator CS6. I've attached an image below.
I have an object with gradient fill and i've selected the first color stop.
In previous Versions of AI i could the pick any color with color Picker while holding the shift-key.
In CS6 this changes the color only in the Gradient Panel but not the Object itself:
I have to admit that i'm glad not to be a creative cloud user so i'm able to switch between Ai cs 5.1 and 6
because both have some features missing in the other version.
My best,
Herr K. aus Berlin

Re: Gradient Color Picker
created by Mike Gondek
This still works for me in CS6 mac, but more importantly try not to use Shift eyedropper. The topic has been discussed here many times. Shift eyedropper is not accurate and samples the screen values, not the actual color.
Try using global swatches more often. Try this instead
select a gradient stop
Alt click on a swatch
If the swatch is set to global, you can easily change/adjust/merge colors later with one command on a global document level.
Thanks for the advice. I never had problems with shift-click picker i sample colors from other objects and even if they have Spot colors assigned it works, at least in CS5. I've tried in CS6 it's just not working. I've been told that there has been many discussions and i've read some. I'll stick to CS5. I'm very disapointed with adobe. This is a known bug it has been reworked on Mac Versions but not on PC.

Is it possible to change the color of the text in one specific field?

If I want to make someone's mobile number show up as the primary contact, is it possible to make the text for that number a different color or make it bold? I can't seem to find a way to do it.
Thanks.

Make a Shape > Inspector > Graphic > Tinted Image Fill > Scale to fit > browse to image > click on the color patch to change the color to what you want
or
Drag in an image > overlay it with a Shape > select the color for the shape and change its Opacity
Shapes may have Gradient and Advanced Gradient (multiple colors) fills both linear and radial. Both are in the Graphic Inspector as is Opacity.

Assets panel styles, can i change the color of a style to be an exact color?

Assets panel > styles, can i change the color of a style
to be an exact color? for example, if i want to create a navbar
with the black and gray glass affect style, but i want to change
the color but keep the same style of shading. each style in the
assets panel has a default color, but i want to change the color
and keep the style. i did change the color a little bit by
adjusting the hue and saturation, but i can't seem to get an exact
match of the color i am trying to duplicate. any help is greatly
appreciated thanks

When a style is applied to any object, the Properties panel
at the bottom will reflect the attributes which are editable in
that applied style. The properties which can be edited are fill and
stroke colors also apart from adjusting the Hue and Saturation.
Gradient colors can be modified by changing the fill color.
The nodes in the gradient will change the color from blue to black
or any other intended color of change. If you know the color you
can either enter it as a 6 digit value or you can pick a color from
an existing object.
Hope it helps. Let me know I am missing you query
completely.

How do I copy and paste a gradient color from one document and then use the gradient on another document?

I am making business cards. On the back of the cards there are two lines with gradients. Below is a card with a magenta gradient. I want to select both lines and change the magenta gradient to the orange gradient from the file below. How do I do this? (I do not want to copy a paste the orange lines and then move them over the magenta ones.) I just want to select the magenta lines and change their color to the orange gradient. This will insure absolute alignment. I want to do repeat the process with several other gradients too. Thank you.

David,
As I (mis)understand it, you may:
1) Copy one orange gradient path to the magenta gradient path document;
2) Select the two magenta gradient paths and change the Fill to None;
3) Select the orange gradient path;
4) Select the two magenta gradient paths and change the Fill to Gradient.
That should give you the desired replacement. For multiple use of the same gradient, you may consider a gradient swatch.

How do I make a custom brush image in a gradient color scheme in Photoshop Elements 12?

I want to make a custom brush image in a gradient color scheme. I know how to change the hue jitter, but I want to "paint" the image with a gradient between two colors. For example, I have an image of an octopus that I have used to create a custom brush. I want the top of the octopus to be hot pink and gradually fade into a deep orange at the end of the tentacles. Everything I've looked up just colors the background. Thanks in advance!

Try the following:
Open the octopus image
Open a Gradient Map Adjustment layer above this. There are several preset gradients, but in my version of the program I don't see one with pink to orange.
When you double click on the gradient bar in the Adjustments palette, this will open up the Gradient Editor, where you can tailor the gradient to your specifications with color and opacity stops. (see below)
This will apply the gradient to the entire picture. However, the adjustment layer has a built-in mask (the white rectangle).
Left click on this and paint with a black brush to hide the gradient outside of the octopus. If you go too far, you can correct with a white brush.
Now, as to the Gradient map adjustment layer, here is how to configure it:

How do I change the color of a circle in PSCS3

I have this circle that has what I can only describe as a gradient fill to it, and I want to change its color.
The task seems simple enough however for the life of me I can't figure out how to do it. In Fireworks it would be as simple as changing the color property. I have to imagine Photoshop CS3 has some sort of equivalent command but I just can't find it.
I have tried applying a cover overlay effect but that is more of a work-around than a proper solution. If one of you guru's could tell me the correct way to do this I would really appreciate it.
The .psd file is attached.
Thanks in advance.
Here is a capture of the circle I am talking about.

Zeno,
I appreciate your response but that doesn't seem to get the job done for me for two reasons.
1) I can't seem to specify an exact color (say Pantone: 394C). All I have are sliders to adjust and I need to choose a specific color for printing.
2) Changing the Hue/Saturation still reveals the underlying color creating a halo effect.
Here is an example of that halo effect.
Any other ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

Pages 5 can't change background color in fullscreen

There's no option to change background color when in fullscreen mode anymore.
Did I miss something or did apple just...get rid of it?????why???

Hi, Mark,
Under the Format menu select Advanced and the click on Make Master Objects Selectable. Now click on the red area. You'll notice little faint x's at the corners. In the Arrange menu click on Unlock. Now you can edit the color. (In this case a gradient.) When you finish, go back and Lock it again and deselect Make Master Object Selectable.

Why do drop shadows created in Illustrator CC randomly change their color mix?

Drop shadows that I've created in Illustrator CC will randomly change their color mix when they are different mixtures of cmyk black, usually after closing and opening again. For example, if the drop shadow is 75c 68m 67y 90k, the next time I open the file it will 20c 0m 0y 100k. This happens with many of my files, and has been going on for several months. Thanks.

Hey I found out from the developers that this is actually fixed in version 29 via Bug 965861. Try the pdf viewer in the next version of Firefox, this will take care of that gradient. :-) Cheers.

Adjusting Gradient Color's GREYED Out

In my motion project for some reason several of my text layers I cannot change the gradient colors of the font. I can select different present gradient colors, but I cannot create my own gradient colors or modify any of the preset gradient colors. The standard gradient sliding bar for color modification is greyed out. Why would this be? Some of my text layers in the project are fine, I can modify the gradient colors. Other text layers I cannot, what would the difference be?
Words of wisdom appreciated, thanks!
lance

Actually I think this was a combination of bug / human error. The problem was I just selected the layer in the Project window, then went into the Inspector to modify the gradient. The solution was I had to first double click on the text object in the screen and make sure the cursor was blinking in the text itself. Then I could edit the gradient colors in Inspector.
Hope my blundering can help others avoid the same boo boo:)
