Using the Pick Color Dialog

The Pick Color dialog appears when you click a color box to set a color value. Use the dialog to select a color based on HSV or RGB color models.

You use the Mode list to select which two color components to display in the color area. The third appears in the color bar to the right of the color area. For example, if you choose Hue vs. Saturation, you use the color area to choose the hue and saturation values, and the color bar to choose the value.

To use the color picker:

1. Select a mode from the Mode list.

The choices are Hue vs. Saturation, Hue vs. Value, and Saturation vs. Value.

2. Do one of the following:
• Click the color area to set the two color components listed in the Mode list. Use the color bar slider to pick the third.
• Select RGB%, RGB, or HSV from the Color Model list, and then use the sliders to specify a color.

The color is displayed in the preview window.

3. Click OK to set the color.
