Photoshop Elements :: Could Not Use Color Replacement Tool - Only Works In Full Color Mode
Feb 19, 2013
I have a PSD file open and I added a new layer via the copy command. I have added a Layer Mask to the new layer and I'm trying to use the Brush Tool with black forground to cover part of the new layer. I'm following an online tutorial step by step, but when I try to use the Brush Tool I get "could not use color replacement tool because it only works in full color mode". The Image>Mode is set to RGB.

I accidently changed the color of the background outside of my docked image from grey to black and can not figure out how to reset it to the default grey. The workspace dock color is grey until I dock an image and then the color surrounding my image changes to black. This is occuring in the Full Edit Mode.

I have very recently started using Photoshop CS.
When I tried to use it a second time, instead of replacing my color that I click on with black (my chosen color) it changes it to gray. When moving the tool over other areas, it grays them out as well. It looks as if the tool takes all color away.
I have the correct tool settings: Mode: Color, Sampling: Once, Limits: Discontinuous, Tolerance: 30% and Anti-aliased is ticked.
I have also reinstalled Photoshop, but it still didn't work.

i had always seen pics where people changed the color of a car from one color to another.
my question is
1. how do you get the color to look like its the actual paint and not just color that has been replaced.
2. how do you change a car that is in white or black to a different color?

the Color Replacement Tool in PS CS4 but I can't make it work. I thought it should allow me to pick a color as the background color and replace that color with whatever I define as the foreground color. Does anyone have a good tutorial on this tool?
I'm actually trying to turn the background of a picture of my grandson black eliminating the brown blanket he's laying on. Is there an easier way than color replacement to do this?

I just got Photoshop CS and am trying to use the color replacement tool as described in the tutorial. I am not getting a true color replacement. Navy blue may turn light neon blue, skin tone may turn neon pink. No true color to true color. What do I need to do?

The picture here is the layout I'm working on for a site I'm making. I've gotten pretty far, and am about to do the final touches. As you can see the satyr(the horned guy hugging the "P") and the text is grey. I wan't it black.
I could do the satyr all over again, it still needs some finishing touches before I am done anyways, BUT: It took me lots of tries until I got it close to the way I want it to look.
What happens when I use the color replacement tool on it is this:
When I use black color, nothing happens.
When I use some colors, it becomes that color
And with other colors, it just blends!
What should I do? Is there another way to have the satyr intact and change the color for it? Is it even possible with the color replacement tool?

I used the color replacement tool without a problem. Today, no matter what I have set for the foreground color, the "replacing" color is grey, OR I don't see any replacing going on at all.
My mode is set to "color." I have tried all the sampling styles, check and unchecking the aliasing box and all the limits options.

I can not use the color replacement tool to replace a grey/black color on a person's head to all black. The tool keeps getting a grey not a black, even after I select black from the swatch.
Does the image file need to be something else than RGB? I have tried other color and it does work. I have tried red and it will replace all of the grey&black, but .........

I use my color replacement tool to "copy" a color from one clipart image....then use that color to replace a color on another clipart image. This has always worked for me until yesterday. This is PS6.
I copy the color (with the color replacement tool)..then when I switch to the other canvas where my 2nd clipart is....the shade changes! Even if I copy/paste the hex code--it looks different on the two canvasses. The hex number remains the same but the color is very much different. I normally use the bucket to color the 2nd clipart.

I'm trying to make the blue bottom portion of this wall match the top off-white portion. I try to paint over the blue with the color replacement tool, having set my brush to match the top wall, but when it overpaints the blue, I'm getting a much darker gray that doesn't match.

I'm using PSE 11 and want to replace the brown color with white using the Color Replacement Brush.
Here are my Color Replacement Brush settings:
Unexpectedly, when I brush over the brown area, instead of the brown changing to white it's changing to a bluish-gray.
Why the brushed color isn't changing to white?
My OS is Snow Leopard on a MacBook Pro.

For family history purposes, wish to improve the legibility of some hand written 1930 telegrams; the ink has faded with time so I want to change its colour to black. The form printing has not faded.
The user guide draws attention to the fact that the color selected for replacement must be in the image. Using the Dropper tool with sample size 1 pixel I position the dropper where I want it, see the color in the preview window, then right-click and the selected color appears in the background window on the Materials panel. So far, so good. I then place the Dropper tool over black in the swatch on the Materials panel, click and black appears in the Foreground window of the Materials panel. I think I'm set.
When I select the Color Replacer tool the background window immediately reverts to another color, usually white.Incidentally, the user guide suggests you read up on selecting colors with the Dropper; when you do this you learn that its OK to pick colors from the Materials panel.

I can't figure out how to adjust the size of the program screen when in Full Edit Mode. I can see portions of the Quick Fix menu and none of the Guided Fix menu. There seems to be no way to resize the window.

I need to create a document, which i want to print, in CMYK mode, but this is not possible on Photoshop elements 5. Apparently Photoshop doesn't support CMYK. Some of my colleagues are graphic designer who also work with Photoshop and they say, that CMYK is always available... I don't understand why it's not available on my software. Do i need to change the setting or something?

The project is a photo montage. It was 4-color, now must become 2 colors. So I've changed each of the original 4-color photos (jpg and eps) into separate psd files (as grayscale/duotone/montage-and assigned it One pantone color)
In a new psd "montage" file, I plan to place each photo on its own layer, adjust tints, transparency, etc, to create one new montage/flattened.I'm not sure which color mode is best when setting up this new file, CMYK or grayscale?
Once the PS doc is done, the job will be saved as a PDF for 2-color printing.I want to insure the 2 pantone colors separate properly at press.

I have an image in which I am trying to replace the black coloring in a flag to pink, but the replacement isn't going through. The flag only becomes a greyish color.
To replace the color I used Image--->Adjustments--->Replace Color and then selected the black with the eyedropper, and change the color on the bottom to the pink.
