Remap Gradient Colors Like Recolor Artwork in Illustrator


Recommended Posts

Is there a way to remap colors like the recolor artwork feature in illustrator screenshots attached? I have tons of shapes, some with a gradient stroke, some with a gradient fill. I'd like to be able to remap the gradient colors such that I can select an entire column and push all the colors a bit warmer, select the next column and make them even warmer and so on, creating a cool to warm shift with all the individual shapes. 

I just couldn't seem to find a way to remap color in Affinity designer. I thought I might go by row, and just change the colors manually for each set of shapes then duplicate transform them to create the columns but time wouldn't allow for that. I went ahead and did it in Illustrator but in the future It would be good to know if it's possible to do the same in Affinity.

Hi,

It seems this feature is currently absent in AD.

There are alternative workflows available, please check yourself if this could suit your needs:

- using global colors

- using "flood select tool" and HSL / recolor adjustment

- select same color

a forum search will show this older feature request.

You should add your vote, this might increase the chance to be finally get implemented by Affinity.

You could try using the HSL adjustment layer with a mask for each "set of shapes".

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
