Edit Predefined Colour Palettes

I've created one predefined palette by editing a defaultConfig.xml file (there are several). However, the format of the xml doesn't appear to allow set up of further predefined palettes. Although from the Webi front end, I can see that there are a total of 10 predefined palettes. Does anyone know where they can be configured?
Another option is "Customized document palettes", but this is sub-optimal as they only persist in the current document.

Hi,
In XI 3.1 we could work around that by changing the XML files so default a different color was used. In SAP BusinessObjects BI 4.0 the chart engine has been changed, now there is one chart engine for WebIntelligence, Analysis and Crystal Reports. So if you need a house-style for your reports, follow the next steps.
1. Your administrator needs to go to the following directory on the server side C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\images
2. Find the file there named as VisualizationConfig.template.xml
3. Rename this file to VisualizationConfig.xml
4. Then edit this file and add the color for the palette as you required (RGB colors are used)
5. Check there are no errors in the config file, otherwise the standard palette is applied – you can define only one Corporate palette, and the palette ID must not be changed
6. Finally, you need to reboot Tomcat after editing the config file.

How do I switch between the tint slider and CMYK slider under the colour palette?

I have a number of process colours loaded in my swatches palette and when I select a colour and have the colour palette on show it defaults to the tint slider. I have the option from the flyout to change to CMYK but when I do this how do I change back to the tint slider?

Once you edit the color of the object in the Color panel using the sliders you no longer have the swatch applied because you've change the color as a local override. You could add the new color to swatches, or if your intent is to globally change a swatch you sould do it in the swatch definition dialog.

My macbook pro's screen display has suddenly gone into a strange colour setting where everything appears in a kind of infrared colour palette an I can;t seem to change it back. It's the same for all icon and websites, does anyone know how to restore?

Wow! I think I had this same issue just last night.
I was cleaning my macbook pro retina on the outside. Then I opened it up and was wiping dust off the monitor and I can't pinpoint exactly when, but the colors changed suddenly. It looked super strange, it was like green halo's and it looked worse when looking at it at an angle. Of course I took no pictures!!! I was freaking out that my 2 grand laptop was busted and I somehow removed a protective film or something.
But I digress... The image looked very green and spacey, it was almost a neat effect. After about 5 minutes it started to look a little more digital though. There were straight lines of this halo effect on the edges and top. After about 10 minutes it turned into a predominate issue with the blacks on screen. I could open a web browser and it was unnoticable on a white background. After about 15 minutes, you could only barely see the green cloud effect if you looked at the monitor from an extreme angle. After about 20 minutes, it was completely back to normal, I almost feel paranoid like I see a halo or something strange. But I believe that might be all in my head now.
So yerp, lemme know what you guys figure out.

Create document to change colour of certain graphics using own colour palette

I want to create a flash document that allows me to change the colous of an image using a colour palette of my own. I am a complete beginner and have no idea where to start this, hence i would need to know what to do and how to do it.
I basically want the image to be a simple 2d image that i will create using different layers in photoshop and import them into flash, the layer images will all be one colour so the colour of the whole layer changes.
so the colour palette will be on the side of this and when i click on an image and then a colour the image changes to the colour i clicked.
I know how i have explained this is a bit hard to understanbd but any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank You

the document is not for me to use but for me to give to a large group of peopleand they will themselves select their own colours, i want to be able to intergrate my own colour palette into it which will have hundereds of colours....very similar to a room planner kind of thing, where you select a colour and the object you selected changes to that colour, but i need it for somthing else.

Custom colour palette in Keynote for iOS?

Is there some workaround that would let me create a custom colour palette in Keynote for iOS? Importing a PPT slide seems to change the palette, so I assume it's possible, but I don't want to have to use PPT just to set up Keynote! Ideally, I'd like to be able to import a Kuler palette into the iOS app using only the iPad (I don't have a Mac).

FOUND THE SOLUTION:
I had this same problem and this resolved it for me:
-Go to your "Settings" icon and click on the "General" tab.
-About 2/3 way down the page you will see "Use side switch to:" - make sure "mute" is checked rather than "lock rotation."
-Then make sure the side switch, located next to the volume toggle switch on the side of your ipad, is moved to the right (no red dot showing).
My audio worked fine in embedded videos after I did those two things. Hope it works for you.

Keynote - Export with colour palette

I am using Keynote 6.2.
I create a Presentation in Keynote named Preso 1. I create a colour Palette to use within the Preso. I save the document.
A work colleague needs to work on Keynote Document Preso 1.
I save on the server, my colleague opens it up to make changes.
The colour palette that I created within the Preso 1 document has vanished.
How do I save the Colour Palette within the doc so others can open and use it?
Thanks
Marcus

System Color Palettes are located in
~/Library/Colors
However, you're going to have to create a new palette by clicking "New" here:
A new palette "Unnamed" will be created. You can rename that palette by clicking the cog again and choosing "Rename..." Then, you'll need to click on the objects you want to capture the color of, and drag the color of those objects into the color chip area:
Once you've captured the color, you can even rename it something that indicates where it's normally used, providing more information to the recipient than just the color.
Once you've captured all the colors you need, go to ~/Library/Colors and you'll see a .clr file as you named it. Place that file in your server location and direct the recipient to go into their Color Picker, choose "Open..." and select that file. It'll be automatically transferred to the system color picker and that set of colors will be available for any application on your system.
If you ever make any updates to your palette that you want to share, you can send a new .clr file, but if it has the same name as the old one and will be imported as "name 2". So, either rename it before you send (perhaps with a date so everyone knows this is the latest version) or tell them to click the cog to "Remove" the old one before Opening the new one. Probably cleaner doing it the old way so you don't have a lot of palettes lying around.

Using a new colour-palette in PSE10

Hi everyone,
I have a dutch version of PSE10, but all the dutch help pages do not seem to work and link to the english site, so here I am.
I added a new colour-palette (hope that's the correct name) for a project. Every time I try to add a new colour, PSE shuts down. When I add a colour to an existing palette, the program keeps working properly.
I allready had a chat with a help-desk person, I was told to rename the folder 10.0 to 10.0-old in (I think) the registry and then restart PSE. That didn't solve the problem. He told me to contact the dutch help-site, but as I told earlier, that doesn't work too well.
Is there anyone who can tell me how to solve this problem? The rest of PSE works okay and I really love to work with it.
Thanks a lot,
Caroline

I don't mind the long message Ken, I'm glad you want to help me. I'm also 'glad' that I'm not the only one with this problem, and that it's not just a 'dutch-version' problem.

Do you know if there are many PSE users who have this problem? And is somebody working on some buggfix?
I've used PS5 for many, many, many years, untill I bought a new PC with Windows 7, PS5 didn't like that. I bought PSE 'cause it does everything I need (and is also affordable ). This is in fact a minor problem, but as PSE has this possibility, I want to use it too.
Enjoy your weekend (well, I hope it's allready weekend over there)

Can I use a colour palette control to set the colour of an LED on front panel?

Hi,
I want to allow the user of my LabView program to be able to set the colour of an enlarged LED on the front panel using a colour palette control also on the front panel. Is this possible or can the LED only be the colour it is set to in its properties dialogue box?
Thanks,
Dave.

The question is of course: "Does it really need to be a boolean LED that has a True/False and all the boolean logic???
If you just want an LED lookalike where the color can be easily controlled programmatically I would recommend a color box indicator instead. You can even customized it to look like an LED! The attached example (LabVIEW 7.1) shows both methods, but the color box option is programmatically much less messy (no bundling, no array building, no property nodes!).
(To make the LED color box indicator, I customized a plain color box and simply imported the graphic elements from the regular LED indicator.)
LabVIEW Champion . Do more with less code and in less time .

Missing Tint Slider in Illustrator CS5 Colour Palette

Hello
Despite following all the intructions on numerous tutorials/help sections etc I can't get the tint slider to appear in the colour palette.
I'm thinking I might have a bug with my programme. Any ideas? (it's beyond frustrating!!!!)

Kurt, I deleted the prefs, quit and restarted and now it works -
thanks for getting back on this one

Why does my RGB colour palette keep converting to CMYK, even though my document setup is RGB?

I have been sent some icons from another department in my company. They used the CMYK colour palette and saved the files as eps. I'm now traying to transfer these designs into my own document - new and setup as RGB. I've noticed now that it has converted back to CMYK.
I have created another blank document (RGB) and tested the two palettes side by side and they work just fine, but when I copy and paste the graphics it converts everything to CMYK.

Yep you're right that they are always global, I forgot that option isn't available when it is spot - so I'm not sure why you asked.
Yes I know that spot can be any colour mode - that's why I have the two colour palettes.
These have always worked perfectly before as spot and they make working with them much quicker and easier (usually), so I'm not sure why you think they don't make sense.

Edit a Color Palette to Reduce Colors

I am trying to reduce the number of colors in a file.
If I save for web devices and reduce the number of colors, Photoshop appears to go by volume, rather rather than distinctiveness. Area of distinct colors get merged and multiple shades of similar colors stay.
Is there any way to edit the color palette so that I can explicity merge colors. Make all A and B, A.

yes, covert the image to Indexed Mode and then you can select how many colors you'd like your image to contain (I believe it's up to 256 colors in this mode). Image/Mode/Indexed Color and then once you've selected your color scheme, you can convert it back to RGB mode.

Eye Dropper, Colour Palette and Adjustment Layers?

Hi guys,
I tend to need to change the colour of various items in images (usually because I want something in the image to be a corporate colour.
My old technique used to be something along this line:
Open image
Ensure the colour palette is visible
Convert to CMYK (or not)
Create curves or channel mixer adjustment layer
Eye dropper the image on a pixel I wanted to change
Manipulate the adjustment layer and watch the colour feedback from the colour palette
When the colour palette said rughly the right colour values--job done!
My problem is, whenever I eye dropper the image it tells me the current colour; but when I go back to manipulating the adjustment layer the colour palette nop longer gives me live colour value feedback like it used to in CS3. This change occured when the Adjustments Palette was introduced
This has been driving me crazy ever since CS4 came out (infact, I ignored CS4 because of it).
Is there anyway to restore live feedback???
Please, please, PLEASE help meeeeeeeeeeeee...! :'o/

Try something like this:
1. Make the curves adjustment layer
2. Click on the curve adjustment layer thumbnail in the layers panel
(not the layer mask, but the curve icon to the left of the layer mask)
3. Manually select the eyedrooper tool in the toolbox and ctrl click in the image to set the
point or points on the curve.
When you adjust the curve from inside the curves panel, you should be able to see the
changes in the color panel.
For the channel mixer, click on the channel mixer icon and then click inside the image with the eyedropper tool
and you should be able to see the changes in the color panel when you move the sliders.

Editing tiff colours

Hi, I have heard that you can save edit jpg colours in illustrator if they are saved as tiffs first in photoshop. Does anyone know any good tips for this, or know any good tutorials?
I'm looking to use it as an alternative to using live trace, so as to get more accurate definition in my work,
I use windows xp, and illustrator cs2/3
Thanks!

By "editing colors" do you mean changing the color value, saturation, etc.? Why not do this in Photoshop, the program designed for such work?
If that's not what you mean, then I don't understand what you are after.

Where have my templates and colour palette gone?

I had a number of tailor-made presentation templates in Keynote, along with my dedicated colour palette, which I need for making client presentations.
They have all disappeared since I upgraded to 6.0.
Does anyone know how I can recover them?
Thanks.

Mine are gone too, what the heck?!
