Customizing or Changing Colors

Home Page (Graphics Editor) |  Overview |  How Do I ... Topics

The Graphics editor’s Colors palette initially displays 24 colors: 16 standard colors and 8 dithered colors. In addition to the displayed colors, you can create your own custom colors.

To change colors on the Colors palette or Palette tab

1. From the Image menu, choose Adjust Colors.

   

2. Define the color by typing RGB or HSL values in the appropriate text boxes.
   
   
3. Set the luminosity by moving the slider on the luminosity bar.
   
   
4. Many custom colors are dithered. If you want the solid color closest to the dithered color, double-click the Color preview window. (If you later decide you want the dithered color, move the slider or the cross hairs again to restore the dithering.)
   
   
5. Click OK to add the new color.
