pplaut Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 I am trying to transition to one vendor. How can I change the color from this attached image from green to black or any other color. I have affinity photo and affinity designer. I do know this is a simple task. I'm tired and stymied. BaldmenOnlyLogo.afdesign Quote
R C-R Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 Because it is a pixel layer one way to go is to open it in Affinity Photo, use the Flood Select Tool (a.k.a. magic wand) with Continuous unchecked & Tolerance set to about 20% to select all the green pixels. Then switch to the Flood Fill Tool (a.k.a. paint bucket) set the same way for Continuous & Tolerance, choose a color & click once somewhere within the 'marching ants pixel selection.

Alfred Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 2 hours ago, carl123 said: Adding a Threshold adjustment layer will give you black (but only black) A Threshold adjustment will make the green parts black and leave everything else transparent, creating an ideal mask. Cover the canvas with a coloured rectangle and go to the Layers panel. Group the adjustment layer with the logo layer, drag the group and drop it onto the thumbnail of the rectangle to give you a coloured logo.

pplaut Posted August 18, 2021 Author Posted August 18, 2021 thanks in this case - Only black will be fine Quote
PaulEC Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 The quickest/easiest way to do this is to apply an HSL adjustment in Photo. ice_video_20210818-092846.mp4 Quote Acer XC-895 : Windows 11 Home : Core i5-10400 Hexa-core 2.90 GHz : 32GB RAM : Intel UHD Graphics 630 – Affinity Publisher 2 : Affinity Photo 2 : Affinity Designer 2 : (latest release versions) – Also all apps on 12.9" (Second Generation) iPad Pro, OS Version 17.7.5 Old Lenovo laptop : Windows 10 - v1 and latest beta versions of all Affinity apps – Ancient Toshiba laptop: Vista - PagePlus X9, DrawPlus X8, PhotoPlus X8 etc
Dazmondo77 Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 I favour Alfreds method which works great for all kinds of colour masking, but personally I'd redraw it so it would be vector Screen Grab 2021-08-18 at 13.52.42.mov Alfred 1 Quote Mac Pro Cheese-grater (Early 2009) 2.93 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon 48 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 ECC Ram, Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 580 8GB GDDR5, Ugee 19" Graphics Tablet Monitor Triple boot via OCLP 2.2.0 - Mac OS Monterey 12.7.6, Sonoma 14.7.3 and Mojave 10.14.6 Affinity Publisher, Designer and Photo 1.10.5 - 2.5.7 Betas 2.6.0(3125) www.bingercreative.co.uk

David in Яuislip Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 Create a gradient on a fill layer above the pixel layer then Arrange/Move inside Aahh, I notice it's a Designer file, if that doesn't have fill layers then use a full size rectangle shape instead BaldmenOnlyLogo-fill.afphoto R C-R 1 Quote Microsoft Windows 11 Home, Intel i7-1360P 2.20 GHz, 32 GB RAM, 1TB SSD, Intel Iris Xe Affinity Photo - 24/05/20, Affinity Publisher - 06/12/20, KTM Superduke - 27/09/10
