Fizmarble Posted December 7, 2022 Posted December 7, 2022 Photo/Designer V2, Color Panel, the help file says holding Shift while dragging a color panel slider moves all sliders at once. This is only true if any slider is NOT all the way to the right. Windows 11 Quote

This sounds like a bug. A single 255 will prevent shift dragging the sliders together. I just tested Publisher V2, same problem. 255 breaks it. I also tested this in Photo V1 and it's apparently always been broken. I just learned about this shortcut (from an Affinity tutorial) and had only tried it in V2, but it's always been broken. Quote

"dragging a Colour panel slider will move all of the sliders at once. This can be useful when you have a colour you like and you want to use a lighter or darker shade of it." If you have pure Red (255) then to get a lighter or darker shade of it you just move the other 2 sliders (Likewise for pure Green or pure Blue) Also, notice that if you have a colour value like, 240,128,128 moving all sliders (with shift key) is not linear across all the RGB sliders. The red slider moves far less than the other two, in order to maintain the same colour but just a lighter or darker shade of it.

Fizmarble Posted December 8, 2022 Author Posted December 8, 2022 I did notice that. I also noticed if you have 255,255,255 holding shift doesn't give the expected result of moving them all in unison to gray which seems obvious. This is evidenced when moving from 0,0,0 and the sliders all move together towards white (in RBG mode). If it's by design, then by your reasoning they should not all move together when any value has a 0 in it. Quote
