Budd Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 In Design 2 can the color of multiple layers, in a group, be changed without changing each layer individually? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Yes, it works the same as in version 1. Select the layers in the Layers panel or on the canvas and change the colour.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budd Posted November 11, 2022 Author Share Posted November 11, 2022 Thanks. You would think that's the case but it doesn't work. As soon as more than one layer is selected the option to change colors disappears. What am I doing wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Are we talking about the colours in the Layers panel? The so called Tag colour? Are these perhaps a mix of image, pixel and vector layers in groups?

Budd Posted November 11, 2022 Author Share Posted November 11, 2022 No, the displayed colors of the objects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Try using the Move tool, the black arrowhead, once you have made your selections.

Budd Posted November 11, 2022 Author Share Posted November 11, 2022 Yep, using the move tool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Can you post a screenshot of the Layers panel then? I am at a loss as to why you can't do this.

Budd Posted November 11, 2022 Author Share Posted November 11, 2022 I think there's a disconnect between the 'color' and the stroke color. Can the stroke color be changed in multiple layers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
