Nonick22 Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 I have a few RGB channels in my display this year. I have used the custom color tool to get the colors just right. However the saved customn colors and my clipboard are empty after i reload the software. Now I have a few colors in my display that i want to reload into the color tool so I can fade them to other colors or shimmer them. How can i find out the color data that i used? I know if i hover my mouse over the color it will tell me the % of red green and blue used. but I can not put this in the custom data section since i do not know the hue, sat or lum of that color. Please help me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsMeBobO Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Type the R G and B into those cells on the lower right. You dont need the hue sat lum, they will change when you enter RGB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nonick22 Posted September 22, 2013 Author Share Posted September 22, 2013 I have tried that. and I do not get the correct color. I did figure it out for anyone else that may be looking. the % shown in the screen is really a fraction of 255. so for my color it shows 85% red and 26% Green. If i put in 85/26/0 I do not get the right color. if i take 255 * .85 = 216.75 and 255 * .26 = 66.3. now i take thoes numbers and put in 217 for red and 66 for green then i get the right color. It would be nice to have a sampling tool that you can pick any other color and have it in the color fader when it opens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
