Kyuzo Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 Hello, first post, I'm looking for help selecting colors within a photo that are in a preset palette. I have done it (once) but cannot get it to work again. This is something I need to do every day, so critical issue for me. I know how to Select Sampled Color. What I need to do is use colors from the preset palette (set as an Application palette). I can only select colors within the photo. All help appreciated/ Quote
Kyuzo Posted January 16, 2019 Author Posted January 16, 2019 Geez, just figured it out. The preset color has to be set as Background, not Foreground. Quote
Kyuzo Posted January 16, 2019 Author Posted January 16, 2019 I'm still doing something wrong. Pretty sure it has something to do with layer structure. Help? Quote

The color is set according to what you choose. https://affinity.help/photo/English.lproj/pages/Clr/selectingClr.html Quote Affinity Store (MSI/EXE): Affinity Suite (ADe, APh, APu) 2.5.7.2948 (Retail) Dell OptiPlex 7060, i5-8500 3.00 GHz, 16 GB, Intel UHD Graphics 630, Dell P2417H 1920 x 1080, Windows 11 Pro, Version 24H2, Build 26100.2605.

Kyuzo Posted January 16, 2019 Author Posted January 16, 2019 Thanks Pšenda. The process works perfectly on a psd file I imported. It does not work on a tiff file I downloaded from the LoC. Any ideas? Quote
Pšenda Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 Pixel layer (Image Layer must be rasterized)?

Kyuzo Posted January 16, 2019 Author Posted January 16, 2019 Yes, that's what I have. It has to be with the source image. Everything else seems to correspond to the file that works (psd). Quote
Staff stokerg Posted January 17, 2019 Staff Posted January 17, 2019 Hi Kyuzo, Would you be able to attach the tiff file in question? Quote
