Photoshop :: Wonky Colors?

Jan 25, 2008

all of the colors in Photoshop decided to go more than a little "off". Every image I edit in Photoshop, and every image I copy into Photoshop from an outside source, loses a somewhat noticeable degree of color quality. What's more, all of the palette colors for my Tools have gone off, too- blue, for example, is less saturated and slightly more violet than it should be. Here's a couple examples to show you what I mean:

who seems to have inherited a sickly yellow sheen during her ten second trip to Photoshop Land.

Random bollocks I pulled off the internet, notice the shift in color quality.

Photoshop doesn't save the new colors, and everything it prints and everything it saves, when viewed with other image software, looks identical to when it went in. The image only goes funny when it's being displayed in Photoshop, but it's still annoying since it's giving me an inaccurate idea of what the picture will look like when finished. I'm using Photoshop CS2, all my drivers are up to date, Windows XP, no new hardware changes, etc etc if anyone wants more specs I can post them, but like I said Photoshop has been running fine since the dinosaurs roamed the Earth and only now decided to bugn out on me. If anyone knows what might be causing this, or what could be done to fix it (besides "buy CS3"),

Photoshop :: Images Edited In ProPhotoRGB Now Have Wonky Colors?

Sep 1, 2013

Somehow my default in ACR changed without me noticing from sRGB to proPhotoRGB and now the images from 2 of my sessions have really wonly colors when saved on my PC... I did some reasearch and I guess I was supposed to convert back to sRGB.

if there is a fix for this that does not involve re-editing a number of images? I am really hoping there is a way to rescue these files!

Is this like in photoshop when you zoom in, sometimes it looks stairstepped and other times it looks like it should? I'm sending these to print and I want to make sure everything is good.

Photoshop :: Glass Filter Acting Wonky

Jul 31, 2004

I have a layer with a shape on it and the rest of the layer is empty (transparent).

I applied the "glass" filter to the layer and got a cool effect where the glass rippling is translucent.

When I tried to reproduse the effect, the filter uses the background color (selected in the tool bar) to fill in the spots where in the previous version it became translucent.

The filter still works properly on a shape that is merged on a layer with no transparency (ie the layer is filled).

I don't know what I could have changed but obviously something changed.

AutoCad 2D :: Block With Attributes Inserting Wonky

Mar 29, 2011

Whenever I try to insert a block with attributes, the text comes in backwards/upside down... I've tried attedit, battman, mirror, properties, attsync, regen and torient. None of them work.

I've inserted blocks into drawings in the past with no problems, using the same template and workspace..

Photoshop :: CS5 Paint Bucket Colors Do Not Match Selected Color Picker Colors

Jun 28, 2012

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.

Photoshop :: Colors In Print Preview Not Matching Colors In Soft Proofing

Jul 7, 2013

Just wanted to print a new photo and realized that the colors in print preview do not match the colors in soft proofing. In both cases I selected the same icc profile and rendering method. The print colors matched the colors in print preview. I never had a problem so far. All new prints will be checked with soft proofing and adjusted when necessary. I never paid attention to the color rendition in print preview and all prints perfectly matched the colors from the soft proofing. I was surprised when my print came out of the printer and the colors weren't matching the soft proofing colors, but that of the print preview.
 
I don't understand why Photoshop renders the colors differently in the first place. See attached screenshot for the difference in the blue/cyan colors. I don't care if the print view colors will match the print, but I do care when soft proofing is not working.

Photoshop :: PS Colors And .bmp Colors Dont Match

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Default Fill And Outline Colors Automatically Set To Last Colors Used

Apr 3, 2012

CDX5: Whatever color I select for fill or outline is now set as the default color for fills and outlines without expressly setting it as such. Until now when I left or right click a color with nothing selected it allowed me to set it as a default fill or outline color for graphics, artistic text, or paragraph text. It does not do that now.

Is this a "feature" that's been added that I somehow enabled? In any event, how do I turn it off?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Change Layer Colors To New Set Of Colors?

May 8, 2012

We are working with a company that will be sending us DWG files. They do not use the same layer colors as us and I am trying to find a lisp that would allow me to set up a table with the layer names and the color I want them to be so that I can quickly change all the layers to our companys color standards.

Example:

Layer 1 = Color 1
Layer 2 = Color 15
Layer 3 = Color 10
Etc.

I don't know a lot about lisp but I figure if I could find a lisp that did this I could plug in my layer/color assignments and it would work.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Colors 1-9 Appear As White - Colors 10-22 Are Wrong?

Dec 7, 2013

You can see in the attached screen cap that colors 1-9 appear as white on my screen and that colors 10-22 are not correct either. This is only occuring in one specific drawing.  Is there a preference that I switched somewhere that would make this happen? I have double checked that everything is ByLayer or ByColor that I can think of. If I insert this color chart into other drawings it looks fine. using C3D 2012. 

I would just restart my drawing, however it is the new company template file that I have invested many hours into and would really like to be able to keep working with it and not start over.  Or is there a good way to import and overwrite all the Prospector settings into a blank drawing?

Photoshop :: Colors In PS Seem To Be Better Than In BMP?

Jun 5, 2006

I'm working on a design for a web. It's quite colorful with bright colors. In Photoshop it looks exactly the way I want it to look, but when I export it as JPG, PNG or even BMP then the colors seem to be a bit lesser bright... they don't look that lively anymore.

What could be the problem? I understand that PNG and JPG may have some restrictions, but at least BMP should be able to reflect every pixel the way it is shown in Photoshop, isn't it?

Photoshop :: Colors Are Off

May 18, 2006

My colors inside Photoshop are off. I'm using CS and when I create an image and select save for web, the colors that the preview shows are quite a bit lighter than the ones that am using inside the application.

It does this for all images. I edit them in photoshop, save them in any format, and then open them outside of photoshop and they are brighter.

Photoshop :: Changes Colors!

Looks like the saturation is different. I've tried proofing to the profile of my monitor (my specific monitor), windows, RGB, and all the options under 'device to simulate' in the Custom Box in the View Menu.

I have a pictures of can't get 'manage attachments' to open...

Photoshop :: Colors Look Different

Jul 28, 2009

When I open a picture in Photoshop CS3 or Camera RAW for editing and then save that picture, and then open the saved picture in any program other than Photoshop, the colors and tints and saturation are very different. I am pretty sure this has to do with my color profile in Photoshop, but I've checked many online sources and my color settings seem to match up more or less with what's recommended. My camera is set to sRGB and Photoshop is set to sRGB IEC61966-2.1, and this is happening both with JPEGs and RAWs, from two different Canon cameras. Pictures look more natural when viewed in Photoshop than in other programs (I think), even before any editing...how could this be? The weird things is, when I go to Edit > Assign Profile and then select "Lighthouse (D65 G2.2 A34.29)" from the drop-down menu, the image in Photoshop now looks exactly like it does when I open the same image in an image viewing program. What does this mean? Also, when viewing my photos in Bridge CS3, the colors look like they do in Photoshop until I zoom in 100% and the photo finishes loading the actual pixels, at which point the colors dramatically change. How can I edit pictures in Photoshop and Camera RAW when what I'm editing is not what's actually seen?

Photoshop :: PMS Colors

Dec 1, 2004

I'm having trouble getting PMS colors in photoshop to print the same way as they print from Illustrator. Illustrator seems to be printing fine, but when i print the same PMS color from photoshop, it looks and prints very different.

Also, when i bring in Illustrator files into Photoshop, the colors don't match. reds become very pink, etc. and rebuilding things in PMS colors doesn't seem to yield any better results.

Photoshop :: How To Scan At 256 Colors

Aug 12, 2012

I upgraded from CS3 to CS5 and need to be able to import using TWAIN so that I can scan at 256 colors like I used to be able to with CS3. I cannot convert to 256 colors afterwards as the quality is too poor.

I am using 64 bit Windows 7. I tried installing the TWAIN plugin in the Adobe/plugins/import folder but it does not show up in the import options after restarting PS. I wouldn't mind downgrading to PS3 if I have to.

Photoshop :: Get Graphing Colors?

Jun 11, 2013

Long time user, first time poster.  I'm curious if there is any way to graph out a series of color swatches in Photoshop? The way you can create a bar graph from a series of columns in a spreadsheet software, for example.  Reason I'm asking, is that lately I'm doing more and more fine tuning of skin colors on photo closeups, and using the color sample tool to measure HSL across skin surfaces. 

I've used gradient mapping in some occasions to smooth out color tones in certain areas.  Having some visual tools to graph out things like saturation or luminance across a series of sampled points would be very useful imo.  Sometimes I do this already in a spreadsheet software, but that can get time consuming.

Photoshop :: Colors Are Dropping Out

Apr 1, 2013

I have a layered image. I've been dragging photos onto it without any problems. But... there are two images that are now acting weird. The first is my daughter wearing a bright pink jacket. I can drag this image onto any other PS file, but on the one I'm working it is dropping out some of the pink pixels... and leaving it gray.

Then, I've tried importing a Christmas tree image (I'm working on a scrapbook page... nothing super important, but frustrating nonetheless). It's an illustrator file. I can paste into other PS files and it's fine. But again, in this one, it's stripping out the colors and leaving the tree gray. I've attached three photos... the one of the scrapbook page with the issues, and the two others showing how they SHOULD look. What is causing this? I've used Photoshop for years and have not encountered this before.
 
I'm using PS 6 Extended v 13.0 x 64 on an iMac.
