Using the Color Guide

I select a base color in the Color Guide and then select a Color Rule and it returns color swatches at the top in the Harmony Rules section. It also returns a whole bunch of other swatches in the lower section. What are these swatches in the lower section? They are not saved as part of the group that is saved to my swatches panel.
Thanks.

Shades and tints, warm and cool or vivid and muted. Depends on which option you turn on in the Panel menu.
Also, you can select and transfer them to the Swatches panel.

  • Using the Color Guide with two base colors?

    I have two colors that I would like the Color Guide to pick other colors that will work well with them. Is there a way to do this? If I select just the green color as my base color and then select a color rule, the colors do not seem to go well with my other color.
    Thanks in advance.

    The colors being used are RGB colors #75959B and #6BB130. I am still working on developing my ability to select colors that work harmoniously together, that is why in the meantime, I am hoping to use the Illustrator Color Guide.
    I am trying to create instructional handouts that use screenshots from Evernote, and Evernote uses green #6BB130 as the dominant color (see attached). I am trying to find a solid color that will work well with this green that I can use to create a banner at the top of each page (see second attached image) that will have a title on it and some other info. This solid color of the banner also has to work with #75959B because that is the color that will be used for the logo.
    Thanks for any help!

  • How can I use the color adjustments interface that shows up for camera RAW on jpeg files?

    How can I use the color adjustments interface that shows up for camera raw on other files types? The HLS controls had the secondary color adjustments (6 colors instead of the 3). Plus, it had same vibrancy and a better Curves interface. Yesterday was the first time I imported raw into Photoshop CS5 and I got that really cool interface. What is that? Can I use that on other file formats?

    Actually I am using the Tradional Chinese Version, when I try to edit the jpg file with camera raw, the system shows that there is no camera raw plug-in. The cmaera raw never work.

  • Using the Color Panel in HSB mode

    Using the Color Panel in HSB mode. I start by selecting a color in the spectrum at the bottom using the eyedropper.
    As I drag the eyedropper through the spectrum it seems the H slider moves to the same color.
    1. Is the H slider showing the same exact thing that is in the color spectrum at the bottom?
    Thanks.

    Yes if you drag a strait line so that the other two sliders don't move. In other words you are changing only the Hue (H). If you drag up and down the other two sliders Saturation and Brightness will be affected.
    Hi Grant, nice to see you again

  • Photoshop cs5 crash when using the color picker since Yosemite update

    Hello,
    I have photoshop crashing when I use the color picker outside the canvas, like on the black background. I got this problem since I upgraded my mac with Yosemite. I got this issue on my Imac and my Macbook pro. My version of Photoshop cs3 don't have this problem.
    Is there any upgrade soon for photoshop cs5 to solve this issue? It looked online and I am not the only one with this problem.
    After paying 800$ for cs3 and 250$ for cs5 upgrade, I don't want to pay again for the cloud version.
    Thanks,
    Martin

  • How do you use the color channel output mode in Ultra Key in Premiere Pro CS6?

    I'm wondering how the color channel output mode is supposed to be used in the Ultra Key inside of Premiere Pro CS6? I've looked through all the Adobe help items and I don't see any documentation on it.

    Before I answer, you might want to read the following article: http://www.photoshopessentials.com/essentials/rgb/
    So, basically, if you understood all of that, and maybe already knew all of that, then you can use the color channel to see more deeply into the effect by looking at the details of the image through the lens of the color channel.

  • Google maps keeps giving "Still loading... Slow? Use the troubleshooting guide or basic HTML" message and won't load maps

    Map loads but entire page except main menu is non interactive.
    "Still loading... Slow? Use the troubleshooting guide or basic HTML"
    It comes up on google.com.au but not google.com
    It happened after they added the new privacy popup with with MapGL also being added.
    Disabling all cookies with Web Developer or browsing in private mode works but when settings are put back to normal it stops working.
    I deleted all cookies and cleared cache but that did not help. Strange that clearing cookies did not solve the problem because disabling cookies works.
    I tested with another browser and it works... but I want firefox forever.

  • Keyboard shortcut for using the color picker in another application

    Hi, I'm new here. My first post.
    I remember there were a keyboard shortcut in Ps for using the color picker in another application. For example picking a color in a web browser. I just don't remember the keyboard shortcut. Anyone know it?
    Regards,
    Leif

    Thanks! This was the method I was looking for. Unfortunately it doesn't work when I drag the eyedropper to a browser window on a secondary monitor. Maybe it has to do with my setup, Mac/Mavericks and Ps CC 2014. Anyway thanks for your help, you gave me the answer I was looking for.

  • Using the color picker component to change background is coving up the rest of the elements

    Hello,
    I am trying to learn some scripting for components.
    I have a bunch of stuff working and I got the color picker component to change the color of a movie clip and another one to change the text color.
    I have another script that does the background color, but, when I use it with this script, it covers up the other components.
    How can I use the color picker to change the background color of the stage without covering up the the movie elements?
    Here are the two scripts:
    script one-works fine on the 2 elements it is targeting
    import fl.events.*;
    import fl.events.ColorPickerEvent;
    myColPic.addEventListener(ColorPickerEvent.CHANGE,changeHandler);
    function changeHandler(event:ColorPickerEvent):void {
        var colorInfo:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform;
        colorInfo.color = event.color;
        myBox.transform.colorTransform = colorInfo;
        trace(event.target.hexValue);
    myTextPic.addEventListener(ColorPickerEvent.CHANGE,changeText);
    function changeText(event:ColorPickerEvent):void {
        var colorTypeInfo:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform;
        colorTypeInfo.color = event.color;
        myType.transform.colorTransform = colorTypeInfo;
        trace(event.target.hexValue);
    Script 2-works fine in an empty movie, but if I add it to the script above, those elements get hidden..
    import fl.controls.ColorPicker;
    import fl.events.ColorPickerEvent;
    var bg:Sprite = new Sprite();
    bg.graphics.beginFill(0x000000);
    bg.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight);
    bg.graphics.endFill();
    addChild(bg);
    var colorPicker:ColorPicker = new ColorPicker();
    colorPicker.addEventListener(ColorPickerEvent.CHANGE, colorPicker_change);
    colorPicker.move(10, 10);
    addChild(colorPicker);
    function colorPicker_change(evt:ColorPickerEvent):void {
        bg.graphics.beginFill(evt.color);
        bg.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight);
        bg.graphics.endFill();
    Granted, I they are changing colors differently, but I am not sure how to change the stage color any other way with this component.
    any thoughts out there?
    thanks

    Thanks kglad!!!

  • In After Effects when I use the Color Finesse 3, A grid appears in the display window. How do I turn that off?

    When I click on Affects, then Synthetic Aperture, then SA Color Finesse 3 in the Creative Cloud a grid appears over the video in the display window, and I am un sure how to take that off?

    Color Finesse 3 LE is included with After Effects and is installed automatically when After Effects is installed. The only reason to upgrade to the paid version is if you want to use Color Finesse in Premiere Pro as well as in After Effects.
    Since it's a college computer, do you have the ability to install/uninstall software? Many colleges lock down the computers to limit such access. You'll need full access, including an admin password, to use the following steps. If you're not allowed the necessary access, you can pass the following along to whoever does computer administration.
    To remove the trial version, delete the entire "Synthetic Aperture" folder found in:
    /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/Plug-ins/7.0/MediaCore
    (Note that this is the Library folder at the base of your boot drive, not the one in your home folder.)
    Next, re-enable the bundled version of Color Finesse by going to the following folder:
    /Applications/Adobe/Adobe After Effects CC/Support Files/Plug-ins/Effects/Synthetic Aperture
    Now, within that "Synthetic Aperture" folder you'll find a plug-in with parentheses around the name:
    (SA Color Finesse 3 AE64)
    Remove the parentheses from the filename so AE will see it. Do NOT remove the parentheses from the "(CF3 Support)" folder or AE will launch very, very slowly, and Color Finesse won't work right.
    Finally, within the "(CF3 Support)" folder, locate the "(SA Color Finesse 3 UI)" application and remove the parentheses.
    Launch AE, apply Color Finesse to a layer, enter a name, and you should be good to go with no grid lines.

  • Can't use the color from Eyedropper

    Hi, so I'm studying Photoshop these days and I learned about eyedropper function.
    The problem is when I used the eyedropper function, it seems the color was uploaded to the palette
    but when I tried to brush with the color that I selected from the eyedropper, a different color appeared.
    The weird thing is if I try to use the brush function on brown-ish background, the color brown appears on brush and when I try it on blue-ish background the color blue appears on brush,
    Does anyone have some idea what's going on?
    Any advice will be appreciated!
    Thanks,

    Check the Mode of your brush in the Option Bar:
    Sounds like you may have it set to Luminosity or something.

  • Choosing font color for titles in fcpx without using the color Picker

    I am working with a lot of titles.  I would like to use a consistent color in all of my titles.  I know how to select text color with the color picker in the inspector.  I find this very cumbersome.  Is there some way to numerically specify the color (e.g. R= 45, G=55, B=120) or to have a preset palette I can choose from?  I found that by double clicking on the color swatch in the inspector that I can bring up a colors window.  I can store custom colors there, however I can find now way then to apply that custom color back onto the font.  There must be some way of doing this that I am missing.  Thanks for your help.

    You can create an entire "Style" in one title and save that style as a preset.
    Create the look of your Title for the first instance. In the inspector > Text pane, click on the label at the top (usually shows: "Normal" until you set a specific style) -- from that dropdown menu, select Save All Basic and Style Attributes.
    You can then: Select ALL of the titles you want to apply those attributes to (shift click or drag a marquee through them all) and use the dropdown menu to apply the style you saved in one fell swoop.
