James Carter Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Is there any way to set the default color picker color mode within Photo for things like masks & Quick FX? By default, CMYK Sliders is always selected and I would rather it be RGB Hex Sliders. I do a lot of masking in Photo using black and when it uses the CMYK black it doesn't fully mask out the layer beneath because it's not full black. Unless I remember to change this every single time I open Photo, I end up having to redo a lot of my masks when I notice the layer beneath showing through.

Cenda Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 I have same problem, color picker is CMYK so I have to switch it again and again. No solution for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 In the Color panel, do you have the Lock enabled? If so, try disabling it.

This seems to have worked! I have closed & reopened previous files (which would always reset to CMYK) & created new files which are now RGB selected by default. I chose to lock RGB rather than disabling but thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But note that if you ever do work on a CMYK file, with that lock enabled you'll still get RGB sliders for it.
