jubro Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 I have a b&w image which has hundreds of airborne 'white' sparks & I want to be able to change their colour. It's nigh on an impossible task to select them all, so I am wondering if there is a way I can colour-pick the tone of one of them & then universally fill all the instances in the image that are the same tone. If this is possible, is it also possible to set a tonal range to which a colour can be universally applied?

kirkt Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 I assume you are working with a pixel-based image (as opposed to a vector image - you mentioned "instances" but I am assuming that these are not separate objects). The sparks are the brightest parts of the image and are well-defined, so you can make a mask where the sparks are white and everything else is black. Then make a rectangle with the rectangle tool and fill it with the color you want (or a gradient, or whatever) and apply the mask. Set the blend mode of the rectangle layer to something like Linear Light. See example attached - I used a gradient. Because you use a rectangle shape (instead of filling a pixel layer) you can edit the fill once it is initially laid down, or change it to another fill type (color to a gradient, etc.). Is this what you are going for? Kirk jubro and Alfred 1 1 Quote
