vishal Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Hi I am trying to use color replacement brush to replace the green with white. The foreground color is set to white #FFFFFF - however on using the brush I end up with grey - #A7A8A8 rather than white Would you know why this is the case? Thanks!

Jaffa Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Hi Vishal, I have the same problem, which I have been wrestling with for an hour and more. I have the Swatches panel open and have chosen a strong colour. The Opacity of the panel is 100%. The colour replacement brush is set to Opacity 100%; Flow 100%; Hardness 100%; Tolerance - have tried 10%, 30% and 100% . Have ticked "Sample continuously". When I apply the brush nothing happens!! 😫 ***************************** I wonder Vishal, if you have ticked Sample continuously? Tolerance, say 30%? Just a thought.

vishal Posted February 20, 2021 Author Share Posted February 20, 2021 Something does happen in my case.. It's only the wrong color applied. I expect to replace with white but a less opaque white gets applied instead. I have tried all those settings, but never got the expected replacement. If nothing is happening for you is worth checking if you have the pixel layer selected? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the Color Replacement Brush doesn't work as you think (which would be understandable as it's misnamed): From the Help (with my emphasis😞 Quote The Colour Replacement Brush Tool takes a sample of the colour under the cursor when you begin to paint, and will replace all closely matching colours along the stroke with the current Primary colour. The targeted colour's hue will be replaced with the current Primary colour's hue, while retaining saturation and lightness values of the original pixels. vishal 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.4.1, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
