Problem of color picker

Hello

A problem that I've never experienced with Photoshop CS4 (running on Windows 7).  I can't seem to find a solution online, so I hope that someone here will have some suggestions.

In fact, when I shoot to the top of my color picker, I have more a smooth gradient of color; Instead, I'm getting that radiate to the upper left corner.  "Only Web colors" is not checked, but my Color picker appears much as it would if it had been checked (only the banding is less accurate - maybe to halfway between the way he normally looks and the way he usually expects the checkmark Web colors).  It is also causing my brushes behaving oddly; the colors are interacting in a funny way, producing mixtures really desaturated sometimes, and other times, appearing almost to have some sort of effect of burning/multiply current.  All the layers and brushes are set to normal and the image mode is RGB.

Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions, I'd like to hear them.  The only thing I did recently I can think who might have caused it is an update of Windows on a bunch of my drivers, yesterday afternoon, which included updates to my graphics card and the Wacom tablet.

What you see in the devices tab, is that it uses.

And I think it is without doubt the Dell factory profile for this monitor, given its name.  I suspect that it's wrong, that's why you see display problems.

You can choose to go in one of two directions from here...

1. you can buy a color calibration device and generate your own profile, which will replace the one you have now.  This will ensure that you have accurate colors, but I don't think anyone can guarantee that you will not see some banding.

2. you can replace the one you have now with a "well known" generic profile (sRGB IEC61966 - 2.1) and see how it works.  This will almost certainly remove the problems you see with the color picker and color you see in Photoshop under several conditions correspond to your non-management applications colors.  What it won't do is give you calibrated color.  You might find, depending on your monitor, sRGB documents will appear more saturated color.

Maybe you could try #2 first, experimental (costs nothing)...

  • Start - type color management, click color management when it comes to the top.
  • Devices of tab, make sure your monitor is registered at the top.
  • Click on the [] use my settings for this device check box.
  • Click on the [Add...] button.
  • Add profile sRGB IEC61966 - 2.1 and set it as default.

After doing the above and before the test, it's a good idea to log out of Windows and back again to make sure that everything takes effect.

Note that you can return it to the feature from before if you just uncheck the [use my settings for this box of the device.

I'm curious to know if the sRGB profile will heal the strapping you see.

  • Color picker bug heavy?

    Now that version preliminary is the retail version, here a problem that was posted, but not really addressed during the preliminary process:

    The color picker is not choosing the appropriate color values.

    Try the following to reproduce the problem:

    1. Define a new shade of color - lets say R = 255, G = 0, B = 0 (pure red)
    2. Draw a rectangle and assign this color as a fill
    3. Draw a new rectangle and open the filler panel by clicking the fill icon in the Control Strip
    4. Choose the color picker and click the red rectangle filled with the color red, defined in step 1.

    The color that is transferred to the second rectangle using the color picker is here R = 252, G = 52, B = 27.

    Why? What values using the selector? Local monitor profile,...,...?

    The problem of color picker seems to be a Mac problem. The color picker is able to choose the colors of the entire screen (not only from the windows of the Muse), and Mac OS, it is only possible to choose the color of the color management. There seems to be no way to retrieve the RGB values of pure "successful pre" screen. In other words, Zak Williamson of the Muse team describes.

    The team of Muse is certainly aware of this problem. Let us wait and see what happens in the next version.

  • problem with the color picker tool

    Hi there we use Fireworks CS3 and seem to have problems with the color picker tool.

    When we hover over a color and select it, we do not get the same color. Sometimes, we choose a blue color and it translates into a green.

    Also when we have a color for example chabouni and reduce the color so something lighter, he returned to the Carter.

    Can anyone suggest what might be the problem.

    This has only started happening recently and nothing major has been installed or removed from Fireworks.

    See you soon

  • a problem on the color picker?

    Hello world... So when I do a brushing with the Brush tool, I often use the alt key to alternate my brush in the color picker...

    but when I clicked it, rather have the color on the foreground color, I get the background color to change.

    Is it possible to change that back to the foreground color? It's really annoying because every time I chose a color I have to swap the color

    Thanks in advance for all replies, tq!

  • The mouse pointer (still) disappears when using the color picker

    Someone suggested to start a new discussion, since the old writing is a couple of years now. Thanks for the tip!

    Whenever I select a color using the eyedropper icon small (used to be a magnifying glass) in the color picker, the cursor goes away after I made the choice of colors.

    I have that experience under El Capitan, but I had the same problem in Yosemite as well as Mavericks and on Mac computers. I've seen this behaviour being reported in the forum for older versions, such as the Mountain Lion, but never with a real solution (workaround has been on creating a new user and delete the old).

    I hope someone has a solution for now.

    The eyedropper tool worked very well for me and still does (I just checked).

    If creating a new user solves the problem then, you have some corrupted in your account settings, or, less likely, you run an application (possibly a connection point) which is the origin of the problem.

    Hold down the option key, and then use

    Finder > go > library

    menu item. You have a folder 'ColorPickers? If so, is it empty?

  • Display the color, the color picker dialog box (like colorbox click)

    Hello everyone

    I wish next (problem?). I want to show the colordialog that usually appears when you click a color box, control clicking on a cell of a listbox control.

    Here are a few screenshots to see more clearly my problem. The main thing is that it is not possible to manipulate the labviews legends, in a way, I want. This is why I want to use the diagram below. To save space, I would like to the first column of color with the color of the plot. It all works perfectly.

    I just want to change the os of color, plot and the cell by the nice color picker.

    Do you have any idea how to do to access this object.

    I am aware that I could use .NET but ist would be nice to have the labviews one.

    Best regards

    Gernot

    I really don't see the issue. See this snippet (drag it into a diagram to use) - a single click displays the selector, the second allows you to select the color.

    I found this solution on an Avast forum (seems as if some Avast users have this problem) and it worked for me.

    Open the dialog box run (twice) and then paste into the pressing next OK after every time:

    regsvr32 jscript.dll

    regsvr32 vbscript.dll

    I did a registry backup first - just in case - but now my WMP is back to normal (black)

  • Color picker does not work in Windows media player 11

    color picker does not work. The frame color is red and there is no way to change.

    It seems that your WMP is in skin Mode. You can switch to full mode CTRL + 1 or Ctrl + M in WMP.

  • Cannot type 3 digit values in the Windows 7 color picker

    Hi - I can not enter any RGB or STL greater than 2 digits in any Windows color picker (x 64 Home Premium) even if a 3 digit value shows already in the area.

    All ideas, bugs? It's really, really frustrating to have to try to surf on the color picker to get an accurate value.

    Robin

    Hi Ronnie thanks for your suggestions - however, there only was nothing wrong in my logs, and I just installed Windows 7, a week or two ago, I decided that I had nothing to lose to restore my own backup - IE a complete restoration of the system of the restoration as opposed to a "restore point." I prefer this, because it's like the hot flashes. :) That fixed the problem, thank God, but let me still puzzled about what caused the 'thing' happen in the first place. I'm reinstalling bric and broc and check the color picker after each change to see if I can find the culprit - so far without success. Anyway, thanks a lot for the quick and courteous answers! Robin is soon

    I have a strange problem. Every time when I double click on the color picker in illustrator, I hear a boring. It's the same when you make a mistake, only then I get a dialog box with information about the error. The color picker appears and flashes at first. It works normally. I got turned down the volume, but of course that is not a solution. Anyone has any idea what it is?

    On my laptop, it works fine.

    Thanks in advance.

    OK, I fixed it. I changed the workspace and he again changed back and it has been resolved. So, we'll probably never know what happened. Thanks fot your time.

  • Using the color picker to the linear gradient does not

    Sorry for the bad English, I really don't know how to ask this question tbh.

    I'm doing a degraded, object using four colors that I put in place. I did four arrows to the linear gradient bar, but the second, I use the color picker to add the right color, changing the bar of solid colorand gradient bar disappear. I tried many things and scoured the internet to find answers, but can't find anything about this problem. I'm this Adobe Illustrator Gradient GOLD text, logo - YouTube video and this is the stage at 03:07 that does everything just for me. I would appreciate help!

    Thank you

    Rather than put into squares colors use color chart & global colors (indicated by a white triangle at the bottom of the swatch)

    To apply the nuance to a point of gradient is easy. You select the point of gradient (indicated by a black triangle above the point of gradient). ALT then click a color in the Swatches palette to fill this gradient.

    If you use global colors, you can easily double, click a shade and change colors and all uses of the color update.

    Here, I've added 44 black to make the Green darker.

    World Vision automatically adjusts the point of gradient.
