Picking colors with same lightness/saturation?

I'm working with the Color Picker and I select a green color on the left side square and I now want to pick other colors with the same level of lightness/darkeness and saturation for other shapes. Do I just leave the circle in the same position on the left side square and move the slider on the right side to a blue or red to get colors that work well together?
If so, by doing this, how are these colors described? Hues with the same lightness and saturation levels?
Thanks.

ill a path with the color.
Go to Color Guides Panel
and choose the method you would like to see the colors.
You can click on the color quide swatches to see vartiants
You can make these into swatches and create a color group with the swatches panel.
You can then color you art and then later Use the Edit>Edit Color>ReColor Art and use the color weel to preview live color harmonies of different color ranges.
You have to read about the color guide and the color harmonies and recolor art feature and how to link the colors in the recolor art feaature from the help files.

My computer, running on Lion, randomly flashes with crazy lights and colors. Doesn't happen often, but when it does it's totally random. What causes this problem and how can I solve it?

My MacBook Pro, running on Lion, randomly flashes with crazy lights and colors. Doesn't happen often, but when it does it's totally random. It looks like the Northern LIghts!!!
What causes this problem and how can I solve it?

Really? Oh I get it. You're the kind of person who goes on tech message boards to make jokes - or friends.
Well, I'm trying to solve this problem - which is a rather annoying way to spend a Saturday.
SO either help or don't reply.

Replacing Colors with Sample Color

I know I must be missing something fairly obvious, but I can not seem to find out how to do this simple thing:
I have scanned our baseball teams calendar schedule which has the days colored-coded; red for home games and white for away games. Also, they certain special home dates colored in a light blue. I want to replace all the light blue days with the same red that is already in use on the rest of the schedule.
I can find no way to use the red as the sample color, or transpose the RGB values shown into corresponding Hue, Saturation and Lightness values used in the Replace Color tool.
I do this every year and in the past I kept a old copy of Paintshop for this single task, but have finally deleted it and want to figure out how to do this simple task using my Photoshop 7.0.

Each calendar day (Blue or Red) also has the Date & time & opposing team in whit letters outlined by black. I do not want to fill the entire square with the color, I only want to replace the blue portions within the calendar square with red.

Changing Colors with PSE 3

If you want to change a color of a stripe...say pink, light green, light blue to a totally diferent color scheme can it be done??? I know that you can use the hue sat. and slider but all that does is change the hue of the existing background. I'm doing digital scrapbooking and want to pick up exact color from a photo..I know you use the eyedropper..Is there a way to incorporate that color in a multi background.
Also is change to target an option in PSE 3?? I know it is in Photoshop. Someone had suggested I try it. Not even sure as to how to use it.

Terri,
Here are 2 ways to change color.
Using Hue/Saturation:
1. Select the area you want to change.
2. Enhance>Adjust Color>Hue/Saturation
3. In the Hue/Saturation dialog box, adjust the Hue slider.
Optionally adjust the Saturation and Lightness sliders.
Note: Instead of step 2, you can add a Hue/Satuation adjustment layer. This will enable you to go back later and make further adjustments.
Using Replace Color:
1. Enhance>Adjust Color>Replace Color.
2. In the Replace Color dialog box, use the Eyedropper to select the old color in the image (this color will appear in the Sample box).
You can also sample with the Eyedropper before invoking Replace Color, in case you want to sample from another image first.
3. Move the Fuzziness slider until only the old color area is white.
4. Adjust the Hue slider to get the new color.
Optionally adjust the Saturation and Lightness sliders.
Note: Prior to step 1 you might want to roughly select the area to change so that you don't change other areas in step 4. e.g., if you just want to change the red balloon you don't want to also change the red dress!

Why do colors with identical cmyk numbers look very different?

i thought i had this problem solved, but here it is again with a new wrinkle. i have this gorgeous orchid bg box, cmyk 9-10-0-0 in a file with cmyk transparency blend space. same set up in file 2. i create a new bg box with the same numbers and it's a whole different color. there must be some parameters mismatched. what else should i be looking for to make sure the file setups are identical?

Attached is an image of what the color picker looks like after I have used the eyedropper to sample what I believed to be a swath of CMYK color.
It looks to me like the image you are sampling from is an RGB image. You can check that by opening the Links panel and clicking on the link, which will display the image's color space and profile.
actually, what i'm sampling--the lavendar bg on left --is color i created in ID; it's not a link. i thought i created it in cmyk; how can you tell it's rgb?
If you are picking up an out-of-gamut color from an RGB image, you can't match that color with a CMYK fill. You could make the background fill an RGB color and get a match. In that case both the fill and the image would get separated to the same CMYK mix on output to a CMYK device.
which does have a CMYK transparency blend space and separations preview in output.
You are confusing the Transparency blend space with a document color space. The Transparency Blend Space only comes into play if you have transparent objects that need to flattened. It has no effect on non-transparent objects.
hmmm, that's not my experience. so far as i can determine, i have no transparent objects, and yet the color on screen changes dramatically when i switch transparency blend space from rgb to cmyk.
why does changing from View to Separations within Separations Preview change the color of my CMYK background so dramatically?
Your background isn't CMYK it's RGB. When you turn on Overprint or Separation Preview, you get a preview of how your out-of-gamut RGB violet color will convert to CMYK.

Can't use eyedropper to pick colors

Hi. Anyone know why I can't use the eyedropper to pick color from the images (quadtone psd) I'm using in my brochure project? When I attempt to do this, the Fill box in my tools panel gets a diagonal red line going through it.

Okay, I just double-clicked on the eyedropper to check settings and everything is checked including object and fill settings. It's weird. I can capture color using the eyedropper from a box I create and fill with color. But can't do the same with imported images of any kind. I just went back to an old job I did where I know I used the eyedropper to pick a color from an image so I could use it to color text and it didn't work.
I am guessing this is completely unrelated but I had a font issue the other day and dumped all my fonts into the trash and have been taking them back out a few at a time to identify if I have a corrupted font or not. Wanted to mention just in case.

How to change the color picker/color space view?

I wanted to change the color picker/color space view to what it looks like in the other Adobe programs. I have gotten used to using the color picker from the other programs and I have had problems with the look and function of this color view.
In InDesign the color picker looks like this:
And the Photoshop/Illustrator/etc. looks like this:
I've tried changing the "Convert To Profile..." and the Transparency Blend Space, but neither have done anything to what I want to be done.
Is there some way to change this in InDesign?
Note: I want to change the looks of the gradient-like area if that isn't obvious.

I was wanting to do the same change as you, until I saw your two images.
Within the InDesign image you've selected a dark blue colour (R:16, G:49, B:152) AND you've got the (R)ed channel selected.
Within the Photoshop image you've selected a white colour(R:255, G:255, B:255) AND you've got the (H)ue channel selected.
In Photoshop I can recreate both of your images by having the same settings for RGB/CMYK and selecting the same channel item as you have in those images.
That's all.
There is no difference between the two colour selection dialogs except where the HSB, RGB, CMYK and LAB are placed.

Simplist/best way to replace a color with another color?

I have a series of footage taken at a photography studio where we used purple coloured gels behind 1k fresnels to create spots of purple on the floor and to light the subjects. Floor and background are black.
There are a few clips where I want to change the purple to another colour (in this case blue), what is the best way to do this? Basically I want to change anything purple to blue, but the purple does have somewhat of a gradient, basically the more purple saturated colours need to become blue.
What's the best way to go about doing this?

Take it to Color and use a secondary to make a color selection. You might be able in secondaries to use a hue range selection and change that. Without seeing the images it's difficult to tell. It depends specifically on the colors of the subjects. The problem in your case you're not actually changing a color in the image, but objects that are reflecting the color from gelled lights, and they might not all reflect it in the same way and produce the same colors.

Photshop CS5 paint bucket colors do not match selected color picker colors

I recently installed CS5 on my laptop after first removing it from my previous machine.
All licences were validated so no problems there.
Now when using paint bucket in photoshop, the colors that I select in the color picker are not the colors that result when I use the paint bucket.
If I create a new black canvas then the colors selected in color picker work with paint bucket.
But if I attempt to recolor the background in an existing image that I import into photoshop, I get the mismatch with colors when I use paint bucket. My method for selecting colors is the same in each case, I select 'set foreground color' and set the color using html values entry at the bottom of the panel.
Any help would be gratefully received.

Try changing Image > Mode to RGB – does the Tool work as expected then?
To quote from the Help:
Indexed Color mode
Indexed Color mode produces 8-bit image files with up to 256 colors. When converting to indexed color, Photoshop builds a color lookup table (CLUT), which stores and indexes the colors in the image. If a color in the original image does not appear in the table, the program chooses the closest one or uses dithering to simulate the color using available colors.
Although its palette of colors is limited, indexed color can reduce file size yet maintain the visual quality needed for multimedia presentations, web pages, and the like. Limited editing is available in this mode. For extensive editing, you should convert temporarily to RGB mode. Indexed color files can be saved in Photoshop, BMP, DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine), GIF, Photoshop EPS, Large Document Format (PSB), PCX, Photoshop PDF, Photoshop Raw, Photoshop 2.0, PICT, PNG, Targa®, or TIFF formats.

Monitoring two servers with same IIS configuration using SCOM

Hello,
We have two servers which has the same IIS configuration including sites names, how do we configure APM to monitor and get events captured on two different monitors on SCOM 2012 R2.
Thank you, Anand
Anand Franklin

Hi Anand,
There is no problem at all, if applications IIS paths (Web Site names + Web application name in IIS) absolutely match. Make sure both servers have SCOM Agent installed and connected to the same Management Group.
In .NET Application Performance Monitoring template just keep Target Group field blank (it's blank by default) - that will mean the application will be monitored on each server within Management Group where it's discovered. The same configuration of
APM monitoring will be used for all app instances.
If you want to monitor the app only on two servers, and at the same time the app is hosted on more than these two boxes, you can create Windows Computer group populated with appropriate servers and specify this group as Target for APM monitoring.
If you want to differentiate APM configuration for specific app instances, you should create several Windows Computer groups and bind each group with separate configuration - in this case you will have to run .NET Application Monitoring template several
times, picking up the same app, but changing APM settings and setting new Target Group.

Creation of BPEL with a WSDL having 2 operations with same name

How to create a BPEL 2.0 from WSDL which is having the +2 operation with Same name+ and we are planing to USE PICK activity but the BPEL is giving error while selecting the operation name
can't create input variable.The selected operation does not have an input message.+
WSDL:Operation
     <wsdl:portType name="ABC">
          *<wsdl:operation name="XYZ"*>
               <wsdl:input name="Request1" message="tns:Request"/>
               <wsdl:output name="Response1" message="tns:Response"/>
          </wsdl:operation>
          *<wsdl:operation name="XYZ">*
               <wsdl:input name="Request2" message="tns:Request"/>
               <wsdl:output name="Response2" message="tns:Response"/>
          </wsdl:operation>
     </wsdl:portType>
Can you please provide the alternate solution if the procedure followed by us is wrong
Thanks in Advance

Hi Preetam,
I believe it's not allowed, use different operation name.
A wsdl:portType in a DESCRIPTION MUST have operations with distinct values for their name attributes.
This applies only to the wsdl:operations within a given wsdl:portType. A wsdl:portType may have wsdl:operations with names that are the same as those found in other wsdl:portTypes.
why do you need multiple operation with same message type?

Win 7 randomly freezes with HDD light on

I'm struggling with this for some time now. My win 7 x64 just freezes from time to time with HDD light on constantly. I've read almost all threads, tried almost every advise, but just could't solve the issue.
I have win 7 Enterprise x64 + SP1 installed on PC:
Intel Core2 Quad CPU Q8400 @2.66GHz
Gigabyte P43-ES3G
8GB RAM (4x2GB Kingston DDR2),
2x1TB HDD (WD)
NVIDIA FeForce 9500GT
Next, I'll list what I've already tried (without success) to not waste anybody's time - tried to change hardware, scan HDD for errors, set memory timings, reinstall win, scan for viruses, update all drivers, update BIOS.
(Maybe) important is that the same thing happens in safe mode. However, I've got no problems with other OSs like Linux or Win XP x64.

comibat & ddrouin: Usually when I run into situations like this, the presumption is that its a relatively new issue, meaning, you haven't have this problem from day 1 of computer
ownership. Right? So, the first thing is to examine what changed recently? We should be considering things like, but not limited to, the following:
Application installation or removal
System configuration change
Driver installation or removal
Hardware installation or removal
Windows updates
Etc.
comibat:
When you boot into Safe Mode (with & without networking; that could be key) & let it sit, for a while, does it seem to hang?
When you performed a clean boot & left it for a while, it also hung, correct?
Does it seem to matter whether or not your machine is connected to a network (wired or otherwise)?
If this something repeatable, like within an hour for instance, you may want to load up Resource Monitor & leave it in the foreground until it happens. When it comes back to normal there should be some results for review. (It may not update
while its in its hung state, but, when it 'comes back to life' it should show you throughput, usage etc and the process(es) associated with it. Unfortunately, this may mean leaving the computer on for a while & not touching it. (Unless
of course its unique to a sequence of events.)
You should consider loading up Performance Monitor as well and creating a counter. Unfortunately, this is probably something you'll just have to let run until it happens, then make note of the date & time for review once it 'comes back to life'.
I would do some research on Performance Monitor & how to setup counters. You could try this counter...
Logman.exe create counter Perf-Counter-Log-1sec -o "c:\perflogs\PerfTest1sec.blg" -f bincirc -v mmddhhmm -max 500 -c "\LogicalDisk(*)\*" "\Memory\*" "\Network Interface(*)\*" "\Paging File(*)\*" "\PhysicalDisk(*)\*" "\Processor(*)\*" "\Process(*)\*" "\Server\*" "\System\*" -si 00:00:01
ddrouin: If you haven't already done so, you may want to consider starting your own thread. (I haven't checked, just a suggestion incase you have not) That said: In addition to the
above, is there any commonality between the three systems (the Lenovo, Asus & your friend's computer)?

Illustrator CS2 - How do I replace a color with another color?

Most of the image uses a gray color. I'd like everything colored with grey, to be black. How do I replace gray color w/ black?

One way would be to select one object of the gray color, then choose, Select > Same Fill Color. This will select everything of that color. Click the black swatch to change them all at once.
