VectorCat Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I've had this happen twice lately. Mac version 1.8.4 I open an image, then change a color in the color wheel for use by a brush. when I change the color in the color wheel, the entire image is tinted with whatever color I choose. I have not selected all and put some kind of modification layer. I believe the images open with the Hand tool active. Anyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 22 minutes ago, VectorCat said: I open an image, It sounds like you're Placing an image rather than Opening it, which gives you an (Image) layer rather than a (Pixel) layer. Then when you select a color you're adjusting the layer's Fill. If that's the case, either deselect the layer, or rasterize it, before selecting the color.

VectorCat Posted November 13, 2020 Author Share Posted November 13, 2020 Thank you, Walt. I am 99.9% sure I Opened the image. But, to be clear, if I’d Placed the image, I’d have used either the image placing tool - not sure of the name, or the corresponding menu item in an already-open document, correct? If an image is opened from within Photo, or, by way of Open With...at the Finder (macOS) level, then that image is said to be Opened, yes?

But the behavior you described strongly suggests you used one of the methods that gives an Image layer. If you have the document you can look at it and see if it's an (Image) layer in the Layers panel.
