Changing custom brush colors

Hello,
I am new to thins community:-)
Im fairly new to AI, just teaching myself as I go. I got a job making logos but I've only taken a class on CS5. Thats the extent of it lol...
Anyways I just watched the video on how to make your own brushes with the blob tool. My question is how can I make my brush strokes different colors. It only seems to want to "paint" in b&w. Ive tried the obvious..., select>change color type options...If someone could help Id be very grateful!

As far as I know, the correct answer, is to select the path which you created. Once selected, Use your color window to change the color, or use the Fill & Stroke section of the toolbar. That is the bottom left on the toolbar. You should see the colors of your blob when you selected it. Double click on that block to change your color to a new color.
Good luck to you.

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:

I now have the pallete on the right side of my screen. But, I am unable to change the color of the brush. I move the eye dropper over red and click on it. A panel comes saying 'Pure Red', I click ok but the brush color does not change.

Custom Brush in color?

Hello Folks,
Is there a way to create a custom brush in photoshop with a multiple color shape? ( for instance you draw an ice cream cone with multiple colors and convert that to a brush )
The idea is to grab that custom brush and click to draw or paint the multiple color shape by just clicking once. The clicking draws or paints that complete shape in color on the spot that you click.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Bill

Thanks for the reply Jeffrey.
Does anyone know of any other software that does this? ( besides adobe illustrator ).

Customizing Cursor Color and/or appearance: Does anyone know if you can change cursor color?

Customizing Cursor Color and/or appearance: Does anyone know if you can change cursor color in Mountain Lion? Any software for customizing and saving different cursors for Mountain Lion? Already have cursor size changed, but would like more options. Are more cursor customization options coming in future Mac OS X versions?

There may be some haxies/3rd party s/w that can do this, but I've not heard of them.
Customisation is limited on macs, unless you start hacking deep into the coreservices of the system - dodgy at best and almost certainly to get reset on the next update from Apple central
Think different? Nooo....that was just a slogan.

How to change the background color of a cell in datagrid using flex3

i want to change the background color of a cell.....how can i achieve this.....and also i want to know how a spacing cane be done between cells in a datagrid...plzzz help me???

The only way I can see to do this is to use an item renderer for your cells. This is really scruffy and would need tyding up, and maybe with a little more time could do better or someone else may have an idea but none the less this works.
Define a custom component as below;
This has logic to see what the value of the data is proveided by the dataprovider for the row, and if it matches the conditions in this case is equal to 5 sets the background color.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" width="88" height="26" dataChange="doColor()" borderColor="#000000" borderStyle="solid"
    backgroundAlpha="1">
    <mx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
            private function doColor():void {
                if (data.value == 5) {
                    setStyle('backgroundColor', 0xcccccc);
                } else {
                    setStyle('backgroundColor', 0xffffff);
        ]]>
    </mx:Script>
</mx:Canvas>
Now just apply the item renderer in the datagrid and that will do it.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" xmlns:ns1="*">
    <mx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
            import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
            [Bindable]
            private var ac:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([
                {value : 1},
                {value : 2},
                {value : 3},
                {value : 4},
                {value : 5},
                {value : 6},
                {value : 7},
                {value : 8},
                {value : 9},
                {value : 10}
      ]]>
    </mx:Script>
    <mx:DataGrid x="40" y="36" width="408" height="193" dataProvider="{ac}">
        <mx:columns>
            <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Column 1" dataField="value" itemRenderer="MyComp"/>
            <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Column 2" dataField="col2"/>
            <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Column 3" dataField="col3"/>
        </mx:columns>
    </mx:DataGrid>
</mx:Application>
I hope this helps

How do I change the line color in a chart in Numbers on my iPad?

How do I change the line color in a chart in Numbers on my iPad?

Whenever I try to shift+direct select it thinks I want to move the line, so as I shift + direct select and drag my mouse across the line (to highlight it all) it moves a chunk of the line and turns it into a near perpendicular line.
I found the appearance window, it just says "Path" (the color I want it to be that it's not)
"Stroke" 4pt
"Fill" (the color I want it to be that it's not)
"Opacity": Default
And some other buttons. I think I'll try the help line tomorrow, I know I saw a customer service number somewhere and I'm only here because the chat was unavailable. This is only one of my 3 problems with my assignment so I'll search here for answers to the other two. Learning new things is rarely fun.

You can change the background display color in the playback preferences, either black, white, or checkerboard. This does not change the output color. If you want to add a color to the video, you have to place a custom generator underneath your video and change the color in the inspector.

hi,
as i mentioned, you would require to use a custom renderer for this, for this
//Class subclass the JFrame and has a JList in it
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.Vector;
public class ListRendererTest extends JFrame
     private JList lstMenu;
     private DefaultListModel defaultListModel;
     private JScrollPane scrollPane;
     private Vector listVector;
     public ListRendererTest()
          init();
          addComponents();
          showFrame();
     public void init()
          lstMenu = new JList();
          defaultListModel= new DefaultListModel();
          lstMenu.setModel(defaultListModel);
          scrollPane      = new JScrollPane(lstMenu);
          listVector = new Vector();
          MyListData m1 = new MyListData();
          m1.setName("Rakesh");
          m1.setOnline(false);
          listVector.addElement(m1);
          m1 = new MyListData();   //represents each User instance
          m1.setName("Makesh");
          m1.setOnline(true);
          listVector.addElement(m1);
          for (int i=0;i < listVector.size(); i++)
               defaultListModel.addElement(((MyListData)listVector.elementAt(i)));
          lstMenu.setCellRenderer(new MyListRenderer()); //set custom renderer
     public void addComponents()
          getContentPane().add(scrollPane,BorderLayout.CENTER);
     public void showFrame()
          setTitle("List renderer test");
          setSize(300,300);
          setLocation(200,200);
          setVisible(true);
     public static void main(String args[])
          new ListRendererTest();
}The above class is the Container which houses the JList in it, it uses two other classes, MyListData which is used to represent each user instance ( username, and information about whether he is online) and MyListRenderer (custom renderer).
// Represents each user instance //
public class MyListData
     private String name;
     private boolean online;
     public void setName(String name)
          this.name = name;
     public String getName()
          return name;
     public void setOnline(boolean online)
          this.online = online;
     public boolean isOnline()
          return online;
//custom list renderer
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class MyListRenderer extends DefaultListCellRenderer
     private MyListData myListData;
     public Component getListCellRendererComponent(JList list, Object value, int index, boolean isSelected, boolean cellHasFocus)
           myListData = (MyListData)value;
           setText(myListData.getName());
           setBackground(myListData.isOnline() ? Color.red: Color.white); //check if online, if so show in different color
           setForeground(isSelected ? Color.blue : Color.black);
           return this;
}hope that helps.

In Yosemite, How do I change the background color of menu bar, dock and sidebar?

Right now my background for the Menu Bar, Dock, etc is RED. I'd like to change it to something more subtle.
Anyone know how?
Does it relate to the desktop picture I have? or ???

You can change the background display color in the playback preferences, either black, white, or checkerboard. This does not change the output color. If you want to add a color to the video, you have to place a custom generator underneath your video and change the color in the inspector.

How can I tell which custom brush I have applied to a line?

I've created some custom brushes in Illustrator CC 2014 and applied them to various lines.
Is it possible to know which brush I've applied to a line (like you can see what color a line is by viewing the Color or Swatches Palette). When I activate the stroke the Brushes Palette just sits there, not highlighting anything.

artracer,
Look at Stroke in the Appearance palette.
