When using the paintbrush or airbrush etc it's possible to hold down the alt key to get the eyedropper so that you can sample colors as you are painting. My problem is that it keeps putting the sample into the BG color no the foreground! Anyone know how to switch this around, (it's infuriatingly cumbersom!)??? I've been looking for quite a while now and can't seem to find anything.
Any ideas would be great.
Thx.
PS I'm using PS6 on PC.

Well, thats strange because in my ps 5.5 it replaces the foreground colour. I don't have a solution for you, but a workaround instead. Press x after you alt-click and it will switch foreground and background colours. I would assume this happens in ps6 aswell. |

This is where you click to change whether it's gonna replace the foreground or background color.

WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
<Silverwolf pokes shizo in the ribs then bounds accross the room, attacks Jim with a huge bear hug an proceeds to bounce around the room yelling "woo hoo! woo hoo!", Jim unenthusiastically in tow!>
I'm composed again now......sorry about the little outburst but thanks a heap. I have vague memories of using the color sheet/tearoff for things a long time ago, (possibly even this), but it would have to be my least used window, yay the wonder of working on someone elses machine!
Well anyway thx again, things will move a lot quicker now! <grin> Having to press x every time you select a color slows you down soooooooooooo much!
Thanks again.
Tim. |
