Changing one color stop of a gradient with color picker

Hi. Is there a way to change just one color stop in a gradient by eyedropping a color on your art board? I know you can go to the color picker but it won't let you choose something on the canvas. Also I know I can make a swatch and drag it into the gradient, but really who wants to do that if you can just eyedropper that sucker! any thoughts? thanks!

When the color stop in the gradient is selected, take the eyedropper, press shift and click on the color you want applied to the stop.
Pressing shift means sometimes that colors will be converted through color management though. For example when clicking on a placed photo.

Changing color stop gradients by eyedropping objects on art board

I'd like to be able to change a single color stop on a gradient by picking a color of an object on the art board. I know you can make custom swatches then pull them onto the gradient, but that doesnt work when you just want to add a color on the fly. Also if you want to change a color stop using the color picker it should come up with the color that the stop currently is, not something else. Thanks!

I have the Ai trial and i cannot seem to figure out how to do a gradient with colour... is it just not possible with the trial version or what?

Topic.

Hi there!
If you want to do a gradient with colors other than the standard BW, you just have to go into the gradient window and double click on one of the markers on the color slider. A color menu should pop up; click on the tiny button in the top right of that menu and change your color mode to RGB. Then you can select your color from there.
Hope this helps!

HP8600 all in one - scanner suddenly won't scan in color to my mac os 10.5.8.

How do I remedy? thx!

Hi,
The default scan workflow configured to scan documents as Black and White. Make sure to change the scan settings to scan documents with color:
1. Open the HP Utility and select your device.
2. From Scan Settings open the "Scan to Computer".
3. Click the Scan Tasks tab.
4. Select the affected shortcut and click on Edit... (or just double-click the shortcut).
5. In the section of Scan from an HP Device click on the blue triangle to enlarge the menu.
6. From the enlarged menu now open the drop-down menu next to Mode
7. Now select the Color option and then click on OK to save the changes. The next scanned document using this workflow will appear in color.

Gradients with only selected swatch colors...

I have a Swatch preset with special colors that has a purpos in a game. In order to create game graphics I need to be able to do gradients with only a group of selected swatch colors, without photoshop creating "new" colors in between these.
Is this possible? If not is there a workaround?

You could use the Gradient Editor to construct special gradients that would have two stops for each color, with one being at almost the same location as the one to the left, and the other, almost the same location as the one to the right. There will still be a tiny gradient, but you can get rid of that with Posterize.

I try to insert some images on a website but the images are not in the right color mode. I do not know what to do? and also I have 1200 images to insert so I can not change one after one. So I need to set up an action, but I donot know how to do it... Tha

What is the problem specifiaclly?
If the images are intended for web use I would recommend converting them to sRGB which could be done with Edit > Convert to Profile or with File > Save for Web, but as including a Save step in Actions and applying them as Batch can sometimes cause problems I would go with regular converting.
You could also try Image Processor Pro.

How can I change one color in design on a web site for exemple background : white to light-brown?

1. how can I change one color in design on a web site for exemple background : white to light-brown?
2. how can I edit visual bookmark on the beginning page?

This doesn't sound like a Firefox issue. I think you'd be better off with a site that offers web design tutorials. Try this one: http://www.w3schools.com/
One thing you should do though and that is to update Firefox via Help | Check For Updates.
There was a security breach at Comodo which is an SSL certificate provider recently whereby a number of fraudulent certificates were inadvertently issued. These allow a hacker to impersonate any site including online banking and the Firefox version you're running at the moment will not warn you that the site is a fake. The fraudulent certificates were blacklisted in v3.6.17 and beyond.

Dragging image from one file to another in photoshop causes color hue to change

Can anyone tell me why this is happening to me?
When I have two image files open in photoshop and I dgrag one of them to the other file it changes color hue? The original image is in TIFF format. When I save that file two PSD and close it, then reopen it and drag it to the the other image file, it still causes hue to change. Opening the original file in AI does not change color? Anyone know why? Is it something with embedded profiles somewhere? If thats the case, how do I get rid of it or harmonize that between files so that I dont get color changes?
Thanks for your support

It's Color Management 101:
Always honor the original color profile in which a file is created. Make sure the color profile is embedded, i.e. "the file is tagged" with said color profile.
When dragging one file over another, make sure they are in the same color space and bit-depth mode. If there's a mismatch, CONVERT (never "assign") the file you're copying to the appropriate profile.
If some moron hands you an untagged file, you're going to have to guess in what color space it was created by trying different profiles in the assign dialog box to see which one looks "better". Other than that exception of an untagged file passed on to you by a moron, make it a habit never to deal with untagged files.

Fill/stroke gradients from shape tool option bar: editing color stop/midpoint location values

Hi!
In PS6 beta 1 (20120305.m415), the new gradient editor available from the shape tool option bar, used to edit gradient for both fill and stroke, doesn't contain editable stops location percentage input fields.
Those are available from the traditional gradient editor dialog box, for opacity and color stops and midpoints. They are quite handy to create gradient with some precise stops.
Could you please enhance the new gradient editor and add either these two location fields, or at least, a tooltip which displays a stop/midpoint percentage value as we drag it?
Thanks,
el' ~

If you click on the gradient bar it will bring up the full gradient editor.

Apply color correction to all footage by changing one color?

Hello everybody,
I have two versions of the same footage which I want to synchronize and make one video out of them. By masking, I've put one on top of the other and I'm synching the footage, but the colors are slightly different in the bottom one (a bit brighter). I've tried to correct it using several filters, but even though I get some really good results changing the values (I'm using Brightness and Contrast right now, but I've also tried Color Correction, HLS, Hue/Saturation...) they're not as good as I'd like.
In several moments, for example, the sky appears, in both layers at the same time. Is there any way I can make the bottom layer correct the sky color into exactly the one in the top layer, so the changes I make in the HLS of that color apply to all footage? That way the color changes would be perfect.
Maybe this is easy to do, but I'm a beginner at After Effects so I don't really know how to do it. Online tutorials don't seem to help much either.
Thanks!

I've been using the re:Match plug-in for similar tasks with success. It costs $90 but there is a demo version you can try out:
http://www.revisionfx.com/products/rematch/
and also a tutorial from Andrew Devin:

You can also match footage in Speedgrade, but I haven't tried that feature yet.

TS4002 I had 2 iCould Accounts - one on MacBook Pro and one on iPad - long story. I changed the one on my iPad to sync with laptop. Now I can not get my iCloud mail on my iPad since it only want to set up a new one, not my existing one. How do I fix it

Hi:
I had two iCloud account - one on my iPad set up with Me.com. Its a long story as to why I had two account which I will not the issue. I changed my iPad account to link up with my MacBook Pro account - which is my primary account. After doing this all seemed OK except I could not get y primary iClould email account set. When I tried to add my primary iClound email account it only allows you to add a NEW iClould account which is not what I want.
How do I correct this issue? Thanks.

Thanks Winston but your solution did not work. In my iCould account everything works except Mail - that being contacts, calendar, reminders, etc. When it comes to mail it is currently OFF. When I turn it ON, it states that I need to create a NEW free iClound account, and allowing me to establish my existing account.
When I tried your solution, it stated that the account already exists but in reality it is not on my iPad.
Any more thoughts?

Do you still have your Aperture Slideshow project? Then open the slideshow and select the one of the green audio file clips in the film strip that you want to replace. Press the "delete" key and drag another audio file from the Media Browser directly onto the slide, where the sound should start.

FM Transmitter used to work fine but stopped working, bought 2 new ones and neither work, they work with other Ipods in the house, IPOD Usb syncs fine with Computer, why won't it work with the FM transmitters anymore?

Are the other iPods models, same version as yours. The 2 New FM Tx may need a new iPod software, which you can update via iTunes.
Good Luck!
