Adrian Wood Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I have coloured in images on a previous version and now with the current version, I cannot find and use the colour bar at the top right once I select the painting tool. All I get is grey scale. There used to be a range of colours I could click on and apply to my drawing. Apologies if this is the wrong section of the Forum as I did try the Help but didn't get anywhere. I have attached two files completed on the previous version. I want to do the same with a new drawing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 It would help to have a screenshot of the complete application window, with the Color panel and the Layers panel visible, too.

Old Bruce Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 You may have switched to sliders and chosen Greys. There is a Hamburger/Sandwich menu (3 little horizontal lines) to get to the colour Wheel. Also make sure you have an RGB or CMYK document not a Greyscale Document. You may want to save as a copy then change that to RGB or CMYK from Greyscale.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Wood Posted November 27, 2023 Author Share Posted November 27, 2023 Thanks, I can see the wheel etc but how do I save to the document to RGB? I just have it saved as a jpeg at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Wood Posted November 28, 2023 Author Share Posted November 28, 2023 Cracked it thanks. I found it by exporting it and not saving it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
