Photoshop :: My Color Picker Changed Itself!
Apr 29, 2005color picker has stopped giving me the slider with the full range of colors, and is instead just allowing me to peruse a few colors at a time. I can still access the full spectrum, but have been using PS for 8 years with the same setup. I'm using PS 7.

Any ideas how to get it back to normal?

Illustrator :: In Color Picker / Selection In Color Palette Is Different Than Preview
Oct 2, 2012Working in Illustrator CS5 on a Mac. When choosing a color in the palette, the preview showing up is different than what is in the palette. If I hit "OK" the actual color chosen is the one in the palette, not the preview window... Including some pics for reference. In my 10+ years of using Illustrator, i have never seen this.I am using a Dell monitor on a mac... not sure if that would make a difference.

Illustrator :: Why Color Picker So Slow On OSX
Mar 19, 2014Strange behavior: I've noticed that scrubbing the Color Picker in Illustrator is VERY slow on OSX compared to Windows.
Here is Windows for comparison: [URL]
(It's hard to show fluidity in a GIF, but believe me, on Windows, this is silky smooth)
However, on every single OSX machine I've tested, dragging around the color picker has terrible lag.

Sep 10, 2013Is there a way to make the color picker in the toolbar bigger?
I've been using Illustrator for some time now and find this part of the software to be annoying as I frequently mis-click this tiny area and the switching between foreground and background color is easily mismanaged and you end up changing the colour of the one you didn't intend and then have to make two clicks to remedy that.
Do any other users find this to be a badly designed part of the software?Also, when in the colour creation dialogue the 'preview' tick can somehow be switched to on as default.
I can understand that there are situations where it might be better not to see your colour change in the document in real time, but to have to click this (again very small) tick box again and again feels like bad design.
Illustrator Scripting :: How To Show The Color Picker Dialog
Feb 22, 2014how to show the color picker dialog in Illustrator programmatically?
In photoshop that's really easy, just:
app.showColorPicker(true);
In Illustrator I couldn't find any reference to such a method or other possibility to show the dialog programmatically, that you would normally get when double clicking on the fill color square within Illustrator.
Is that possible by using app.executeMenuCommand or some other method?
I am writing a script that opens the color picker dialog in reaction to a click on a button. I want to be able to get the chosen color and use it within the script.
Illustrator :: Can't Type Pantone Values In Color Picker With AI CS6
Jun 11, 2013I'm running Design and Web Premium CS6 on a Windows 7 machine. I was recently using Ai's Recolor Artwork dialogue for a CMYK document. I wanted to convert my 4 color artwork to Pantone solid coated. I decided to chose some different Pantones. In older versions of Illustrator I could easily open the Color Picker, click on a Pantone value and then just type in a new value to scroll to it. This is no longer the case with Ai CS6.

Photoshop :: How To Fix Color Picker To Work Across Different Color-managed Monitors
Apr 17, 2013I'm assuming this problem I'm having stems from having color-calibrated monitors, but let me know if I'm wrong!
To preface, this is the setup I have:
Windows 73 monitors as follows, all have individual color profiles calibrated using the Spyder 3Cintiq 12WX Dell U2410Dell 2409WFPPhotoshop CS6 - Proofed with Monitor RGB, and tested with color-managed and non-color-managed documents . I usually do most of my work on the Cintiq 12WX, but pull the Photoshop window to my main monitor to do large previews and some corrections. I noticed that the color picker wouldn't pick colors consistently depending on the monitor the Photoshop window is on.
Here are some video examples:
This is how the color picker works on my Dell U2410:
[URL]........
This is how it works on my Cintiq 12WX:
[URL].........
Main Question
I know the Cintiq's video capture makes the picture look more saturated than the Dell's, but it actually looks fine physically, which is okay. But notice how the Cintiq's colour picker doesn't pick a matching colour. It was actually happening the opposite way for a while (Dell was off, Cintiq was fine), but it magically swapped while I was trying to figure out what was going on.
Semi-related Question regarding Color Management
Color management has always been the elephant-in-the-room for me when I first tried to calibrate my monitors with a Spyder colourimeter years ago. My monitors looked great, but Photoshop's colors became unpredictable and I decided to abandon the idea of calibrating my monitors for years until recently. I decided to give it another chance and follow some tutorials and articles in an attempt to keep my colors consistent across Photoshop and web browsers, at least. I've been proofing against monitor color and exporting for web without an attached profile to keep pictures looking good on web browsers. However, pictures exported as such will look horrible when uploaded to Facebook. Uploading pictures with an attached color profile makes it look good on Facebook. This has forced me to export 2 versions of a picture, one with an attached color profile and one without, each time I want to share it across different platform. Is there no way to fix this issue?
Pictures viewed in Windows Photo Viewer are also off-color, but I think that's because it's not color managed... but that's a lesser concern.
Photoshop :: Color-picker Selecting Background Color Instead Of Foreground?
May 19, 2012You know how when you're painting, you can hold ALT and it will pick a colour from the canvas? Well, for some reason, mine still picks up the colour but it sets it to the background colour instead of the foreground colour.
And when I actually select the colour picker tool, it will only select the background colour but when I hold Alt, it selects the foreground colour. Basically it's flipped where it's supposed to select.

View 1 Replies View RelatedPaint.NET :: How To Move Color Picker Out From Tool Box Into Color Selection
Oct 5, 2011I am a new user to paint.net, because the tool I used for complex image manipulation does not run on the OS of my new machine. Although I could easily purchase the newest version, I needed work on some pictures now. Paint.net was easily available and does most of the thins I need at the moment. In addition, it is officially supported at my work place, so it's a good idea to learn how to use it.
Paint.net has some great features and a cute UI, but there are some issues I would like to see improved. The one at the top of my list is the font preview. I am doing some text on a number of pictures and want to check out some fonts. Unfortunately I can't change the sample text in the font list (at least I do not know how).
However, meanwhile I found a even better function (actually the way I would like to see it). When the font list is open, I can scroll through the list and the text will instantly updated. Cool.
Great thing would be to move the color picker out from the tool box into the color selection, so that it would be always available. Also it would be useful to not only pick one pixel sometimes but the average of a greater area.

Nov 4, 2011basically I record using the hauppauge HD-PVR which records the clips in the M2TS format. I've been using Videostudio Pro X3 to edit the files and rendering them and have had no problems until now. I used to render my videos using the WMV HD 720 25p setting and the quality has always been perfect.
Recently though I tried to render a video using the same setting and it renders the video really quickly and the quality looks terrible.How to fix it so it renders the way it used to or would know another format that would give me the same results?
I was thinking of re installing pro X3 in the hope of it working the way it used to but i don't know if i will lose all my projects that i'm currently working on.

Photoshop :: Color Picker :: Choose Color Outside PS Application?
May 19, 2003Is there a way to choose colors outside of the Photoshop application using the Color Picker? Coming from Macromedia Fireworks, I have become accustomed to using the Color Picker tool within Fireworks, which enables you to pickup any color outside of the Fireworks application.
I have seen thrid party tools that let you choose colors from various programs, but they just give you the color scheme and you must type in these color values within Photoshop.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Settings Changed And Cannot Go Back To Default
Mar 20, 2012I have been using autocad for many years but have never experienced this situation before. I have received a simple Electrical layout file from a consultant, after opening this file my settings in AutoCAD changed, for examples the snap angle to the cursor changed to 337.18 degree, the selection box (pick box) went to maximum and a few other settings also changed. I had to manually go back to the options and change some of the settings back to what I normally have which is very much similar to default settings. But I could not change everything back to normal. I had AutoCAD 2010 and later installed 2012 to see if it would fix the problems. What surprised me is that when install fresh AutoCAD 2012, the default settings is now changed to the settings that has changed in my previous AutoCAD.I would like to change the settings back to normal.

Lightroom :: Basic Settings Are Changed In LR4 When Saving From Photoshop CS6?
Oct 18, 2012I am using LR4 and Photoshop CS6. What has recently started happening is when I send an image from LR to CS6 and then save the image I reopen the image in LR and find that all of the basic settings have been changed.
I am referring to the Exposure, Contrast, Highlights, Shadows, Whites, Blacks. Even if I send the image to CS6 and make no changes, only chosing to save the image before closing, when I reopen it in LR it appears blown out because of the changes in these settings. I there a setting in preferences or somewhere that could have somehow been changed and causing this? Have updated both programs so am using the most recent versions.
It seems that when I open the image back up in LR it is way overexposed, however if I send it back to Photoshop the image is appears to be exposed properly like when I saved it.

Illustrator :: Color Mode And Settings For Grayscale To Monochrome Laser Printer
Mar 27, 2013Is there a best setting for the mode, color settings, and color profiles when printing a grayscale vector illustration to a monochrome laser printer? I am making vector maps, and right now they are mostly black line and black text with only the K values in CMYK. There are some gray tones—for example water areas are 10% K, with no C, M or Y. Would it make any difference if I used RGB mode values at 100% (255,255,255), or a rich black in CMYK (such as 40C, 30M, 30Y, 100K)? I printed in K only at 1200dpi to a Generic Gray Gamma 2.2 profile, and it doesn't look too bad. There aren't many of the lines that are really jagged. I just wondered if there are better settings.
I'm using Mac OS 10.6, Illustrator CS6, and a Brother HL-5470DW monochrome laser printer.
