Color change between copy and paste

Hi,
when I draw a rectangle or any other shape in Pages and give that objet a color (RGB: 175,217,82) and I copy and paste that objet, the color of the copied object does change to (RGB: 188,219,108). Copying the copied object stays the same (RGB: 188,219,108).
This unwanted color-change is very annoying! Help, what am I doing wrong?
Best regards.
Maurice

Maurice,
There is a difference between the RGB color assigned to the object and the color you measure when you probe the screen area of the object with the color picker tool. I presume this has something to do with the screen driver's attempt to balance the colors or something. (Not an expert here, just observing.)
There hasn't been a change in color, just a difference between the assignment and the measurement. Trust the color swatch of the Fill tool, not the measurement tool.

  • Why are my colors changing when copy and paste a graphic from docA to docB both in illustrator?

    Both documents in Illustrator CC are RGB and I'm trying to copy a logo onto a template, but the color of the logo completely changes when I copy and paste it into the template. The logo has three different pinks and they turn red when pasted. There is no graphic styling and the logo is all gradient.

    What is weird is that we get a lot of logos from the same company and we put it on shirt templates so they can see size wise on how it would look on shirts. It's happened with other logos, but very slightly. I asked my co-worker who sends me the logos what version she uses and she also uses CC but does not know what version the other company uses. To them, it doesn't matter if the logo colors get altered, they have the PMS colors to work off of for screen printing. I just want to make sure that if another company sends us logos with PMS colors, we will know how to fix it.

  • Change the copy and paste format

    Does anyone know how to change OSX 10.5 copy and paste/clipboard format from PDF to PICT?

    When a copy operation is performed, the target application typically offers multiple flavors of clipboard data. When you go to paste, which one of those flavors is actually used is up to the receiving application. If it prefers PDF it's going to use PDF and there's not really anything an end user can do about it. If you want a PICT file you'll really have to perform the conversion manually, and it's not too popular a format so there aren't many options for that out there.

  • Is there a way to fix the change in copy and pasting email addresses?

    In the past, whenever I've copied and pasted email addresses, for example, copying the email address from one email into a form field on a Web page, Address Book, or even the search field in Mail, only the email address would get pasted in. Now, since I've upgraded to Snow Leopard, it seems, the name and email address is getting pasted in like this: "NYTimes.com" <[email protected]>.
    It seems when pasted into the search field like this, even Mail has trouble finding other emails with the same address, which is often what I use it for. Is there a settings fix for this or am I just going crazy?
    Thanks,
    Bob

    I found it in Mac tips
    Thankfully, Apple included a hidden preference to revert to the 10.5 behavior of copying only the e-mail address. Quit Mail if it’s running, then enter this command in Terminal (in Applications -> Utilities):
    defaults write com.apple.mail AddressesIncludeNameOnPasteboard -bool NO
    Restart Mail, and Copy Address will once again do just what it says, which is the preferred behavior for my use of Mail. If you try this and decided you prefer the default version, quit Mail and run this command in Terminal:
    defaults delete com.apple.mail AddressesIncludeNameOnPasteboard
    Thanks to the fine folks at ecamm network for digging this one out and writing about it on their blog.

  • Can you change or copy and paste the duration parameter?

    I have a ton of stills already in the timeline that I'd like to extend the duration. Is there no way to copy and paste the duration parameter or to extend the duration of all of them at once?

    select them all... Inspector>Properties>Timing>duration.. you might then wanna adjust your in points on in your timeline cause there's gonna be lots of overlapping... -_-

  • Color changes between CS2 and CS4 opacity with effects turned on

    Howdie.
    I don't run into issues much with Photoshop, and this one has me stumped.
    I needed to drop back to CS2 in order to use a warp mesh plugin.  I saved out a small portion of a file that I created in CS4 (Only containing the layer I needed to warp) and then opened that file in CS2, turned off all the effects (drop shadow, inner glow, bevel & emboss), and applied the mesh warp, then saved the file.  I went back into CS4 and re-opened it there and copied its layers into the bigger, original file.  What is strange is that the colors were a LOT lighter than they should be when compared to the original unwarped layer.  So in an attempt to figure out what was wrong, I checked all of my layer opacities, filter settings, layer mixing mode, etc. and everything was exactly the same.  I even tried deleting the layer style and copying the layer style from the original layer...no change.  I turn off the effects and check the color of the object and it reads the same as the original layer.  Both layers have no semi-transparency in the colors.  I turn the effects on and it is all whacked out.  After a while, I figured out that the problem was that the layer opacity in the effects, although reading the same between both layers (70%), is behaving as if it should be at 90% opacity in the new layer in order to match the original.  Its as if the layer worked on in CS2 has brought with it some corrupted info in its definition, that never leaves and affects any Effects you try to apply to it.
    Has anyone experienced this one before?

    A liitle bit more info here.  Apparently, the pixel data for the warped parts screws with the effect, Inner Glow, in the Choke and Size sliders.  The sliders simply quit functioning and have an abrupt light/dark toggle effect roughly near about value "7".
    The only way I could fix the problem was to do this convoluted solution, since Duplicate Layer does not work.
        1.  Clear the effects on the problem layer.
        2.  At this point you can either work on the problem layer directly or duplicate it to create a work layer.  Doesn't really matter because both layers will get deleted later anyway. 
        3.  With Channel Mixer, and for EACH color channel CMYK, move all 4 sliders hard left, so that the result is 0/0/0/0 for the CMYK values  (Do NOT use Brightness & Contrast in place of Channel Mixer because you will lose any blurred edges.  Also, using Channel Mixer does not swell or choke off the pixels along any "floating" shapes' edges). 
        4.  With the selection tool, create two small selection boxs at two opposite corners of the entire layer.  Fill them with any color. 
        5.  Select the entire layer (CNTL + A on a PC), and copy it to the clipboard. 
        6.  Create a new Alpha channel and Paste.  The little boxs at the opposite corners of the file were needed to precisely position a copy of the layer when we Paste it into the new channel.  The contents of the channel must be exactly registered with where the original shapes were in the problem layer. 
        7.  If you want, you can now delete the boxs in the corners of the channel by filling them with black. 
        8.  Create a new layer and load the selection (the channel) we just created. 
        9.  Fill it with the desired color. 
        10.  Copy the desired effects from the original layer before warping was done and to the new layer we just created. 
        11.  Delete the old problem layer. 
        12.  Done.

  • High ISO color changes between LR and PS?

    So I came across this anomaly after taking some test shots. There's a pretty drastic shift in colors when I bring a high ISO RAW from LR into PS and then save it to bring it back into LR. This file hasn't been edited, just saved as a tif through PS. Changing my working profile does nothing, and I don't think it's calibration related because it doesn't happen with my lower ISO (3200-) pictures. What I do know is it's being converted from 24 bit to 48 bit depth and changing color representation from sRGB to uncalibrated. From researching, I understand that the file info stating 'uncalibrated'  just means that there is an embedded profile (which is what LR shows). Something is going on, but my attempts to fix it haven't worked. I've tried adjusting profiles (LR/PS are matched btw), assigning profiles, converting to profiles, and my monitor is callibrated. In detail, here is the issue I'm seeing:
    LR RAW > PS TIF - everything is awesome > TIF LR - goes bad
    Re-import tif edit to PS - everything is awesome again
    Export tif edit from LR to JPG - looks like it does in LR (bad)
    Export same tif edit from PS to JPG - looks like it does in PS (perfectly fine)
    I just can't wrap my head around why this is only happening with high ISO images. Originally I suspected my monitor profile, but can't see how that would make sense if everything below 3200 ISO looks perfect between both programs. Is the tiff doing something with the noise? Is LR missing some information in the tiff? Is this to be expected? It basically seems to be diluting the contrast/vibrancy, which is easy enough to fix, but a bit of an annoyance anyway.

    That's what I was trying to show with my examples. The issue I have with this is the reliance of having to use it to get identical colour results. I don't necessarily want to remove noise that I don't find is all that visible in the first place (without pixel peeping). I get okay results with milder luminance noise removal and extreme sharpening, but it's still something I don't think should *have to* to be done in every high ISO image.
    Even when shooting below ISO 3200 where this LR anomaly doesn't occur  you should be applying both Color and Luminance NR. My 21Mp full-frame Canon 5D MKII "default" NR setting is Luminance 0 and Color 15, and at ISO 3200 I typically use Luminace 25 and Color 25, or higher. Feel free to change any of your default settings in LR using Develop> Set Default Settings on the toolbar. You can also create Develop Presets for 'High ISO' images using Develop>New Preset. Make as many as you need based on your shooting needs. You can also quickly adjust one (1) image file and apply a unique NR setting across all the images shot at the same high ISO setting using Settings>Copy Settings and Paste Settings or 'Sync' button at the bottom of the Develop tools panel. Check just Noise Reduction>Color & Luminance in the Synchronize Settings' panel. And yes, a 1:1 (100%) view is the only way you should be making NR and Sharpening adjustments in LR.......they will only look better at lower view settings.

    Stubborn, maybe? I try to shoot below 3200 as well, but it's nice to be able to keep my options open when need be and know I won't run into oddities like this when it comes to editing. Am I asking too much?
    IMHO - Why not properly use these tools in LR all of the time, since it can be done for you almost automatically.

  • Font changes when copy and paste url (Safari to Mail)

    When copy from iphone 5 (vs 7.1.2-& no I don't want to update yet ) Safari, a URL/web address and paste into MAIL app, the font changes and won't paste in the same format as the email I've been typing. Is there any way to correct this? Also, anything I type after the paste keeps that same "other" format, when I want what I had started email in to stay the same.
    I tho't I"d look at some settings and under iphone Accessibiilty I have Larger Text ON and Bold Text chosen, and Reduce Motion ON. Under GENERAL and TEXT SIZE I have it set to 4th choice up. I don't see any MAIL settings re FONT. Would any of these be the cause?

    OK, I think I found another way to describe my issue:
    When I copy text from a webpage in Safari, some form of "meta-information", or formatting data, is kept, and when I paste into MS Word, the formatting from the webpage is retained. In my default setup of Firefox, this formatting meta-information is not retained, it only copies the plain-text.
    So my question is actualy: How do I prevent Safari from retaining formatting data, and only copy the plain-text?
    I have been testing some clipboard managers, and have yet to find one that will auto-filter out formatting data from text that I copy, but they can after interaction.
    The other, current, method I have been using is to:
    1. select and copy the text in Safari
    2. paste text into notepad
    3. select and copy text from notepad
    4. paste de-formatted text into MS Word
    Or in Firefox:
    1. select and copy the text in Firefox
    2. paste text into MS Word (no formatting retained)

  • Logo color changing between Illustrator and Premiere

    I'm trying to import an .esp file into Premiere, but the color changes drastically from Illustrator to Premiere. Any suggestions on how to make it look more like the original?

    CMYK originally, then I converted it to RGB in Illustrator. Both modes looked like the same too-happy blue in Premiere.

  • Color changes between Lightroom and Photoshop Elements

    I have a new monitor and I have the SyderPro4 calbration software.  My monitor is the Dell UltraSharp U2713HM.  When calibrated with the Syder my colors are different when I go into different programs.  The same photo looks different in Lightroom than it does in Photoshop Elements. When I export the picture from Lightroom to Elements the picture becomes very orange. I have already talked to Dell and to Datacolor about my issue and they both are telling me this shouldn't be happening. When I uninstall my calibration software my problem goes away, and the colors of the images stay consistant between the two programs. Does anybody have any advice to what maybe wrong?

    How do you export to Elements? Directly from Lightroom? If so, what profile are you choosing? What resolution are you specifying? I normally use proPhoto RGB which is the profile that LR more or less uses internally and 330.

  • I cannot copy and paste to a new layer in PSCC

    I am trying to use the magnetic lasso tool to outline my product and move that product to it's own layer so I can create a banner.
    The lasso will not turn off, I have made sure it met the beginning of the outline, and I have clicked enter. I was instructed to copy the product and paste it and it will show up as a new layer. I am concerned that I have something set or not set that would cause the tools to stick, and that I am missing a step between copy and paste.
    Can someone please help me or direct me to a tutorial that will cover these subjects? I have been trying to figure it out on my own for two days.
    Thanks,

    I actually found under  EDIT then Catalog settings / then metadata that the automatic write changes to XMP had been unchecked. Once I check this, it updated and connected all the keywords to the pictures. Now when I copy and paste the keywords show up as I can now detect them in Adobe bridge when before I couldn't see them even though they were in lightroom. . Thanks for your input.

  • Why does the frame color change to black when I copy and paste between documents?

    Copying and pasting between documents in Indesign. The color of the text stays the same but the lines and frames change from a specified color to black. Also changes when I drag and drop can anyone tell me how to fix this?

    You have not provided any exact information like what version of ID, system info, paragraph styles, color definitions and whatnot, so we can't know what is going on. either way, ask in the ID forum and provide all those important details.

  • Copy and paste text and graphics between Flash and Illustrator

    When copying text in Illustrator and pasting them to Flash, some text would become drawing objects and some remain text. A drawing object is not editable. If I import the AI file, then text remains text but the placement of graphics can be a little bit off sometimes.
    It's just not possible to copy-and-paste text and graphics from Flash to Illustrator.
    Is it just me? If not, when will Adobe have better integration between the 2?
    Thanks,

    Even though you can change your InDesign preferences for Clipboard Handling to allow formatted information to be pasted into InDesign from other programs, unfortunately Illustrator still won't allow you paste in text with formatting. This is due to how Illustrator and InDesign handle text differently. Even if you copy the text from Illustrator and paste it into a program like Word, which has a lot of different ways to handle formatted text, Illustrator just treats text differently than other Adobe applications.

  • Copy and paste styles between objects and entire slides

    Hi,
    In Keynote 5 I was able to copy and paste styles between objects and even between entire slides.
    cmd+alt+c on one object (like a circle) and all its details like shadows, colors and animations could be transferred to another object.
    One could even do it with entire slides and transfer one animation style to all the other slides.
    THAT DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE.
    Does anybody else miss these features?
    Or is it just me?

    object animations tools are:
    copy animation:   Format > Copy Animation
    paste animation   Format > Paste Animation
         there are no keyboard short commands for these.
    There are no tools to copy or paste transitions between slides, you could duplicate the slide then add the content.

  • Why does formatting get lost when copy and pasting slides between projects?

    I'm beginning to copy and paste several slides from a project that was created in Captivate 6. I've opened the project in 7.0.1 and saved it. Next, I've copy and pasted about 20-30 slides from the old project into my new template. In the process, many slides have lost "bold" and "bullets". It's worth noting that many slides have remained correct. I also find myself having to reset slide templates and toggle off quiz buttons that I've already toggled off in old project.
    This isn't part of the same problem, but related. When I copy slides from the new template I mentioned into the old one (in hopes that Advanced Actions would transfer correctly), I've noticed that none of the item names have transferred over with the copy and paste. Instead of seeing the button name I've created, it changes to "shape, text_caption, etc", the default.
    I'm hoping the copy pasting between projects becomes more efficient, I'm finding myself burning unneccessary time doing more QA and microscopic investigation, although I suppose more QA isn't always a bad thing.
    System is the following:
    OSX 10.8.5
    Captivate 7.0.1
    Safari 6.0.5
    Blood Type: oops, wrong forum.

    When copy/pasting between different versions that has always been a problem, especially with question slides. There seem always to be changes that make such a transfer difficult. Did you try to open the CP6 project first in CP7 and see what worked? And do you use exactly the same theme (object styles, master slides, skin editor)?
    Copy/paste slides, objects with advanced actions: bit same problem, works best if done between CP7 projects. The problem that each object needs to have a unique ID (name) is what causes the renaming to generic names.
