#61 Photoshop Tips: Making the Color Palette Work Twice As Hard

Posted on 11:07 PM by Daniy

If you use the Color palette to select colors, you’re probably already using the color ramp at the bottom of the palette for making quick color selections, but here are two tips that make using the ramp faster and easier.

First, the color ramp doesn’t have to use the same color mode as the color sliders above it. For example, you can have RGB for your sliders and gray scale as your ramp. This is cool because it gives you two different models to choose from without digging through menus. You can choose the color modes for both the sliders and the ramp from the Color palette’s pop-down menu.

The second thing is that if you quickly want to change color ramps, Shift-click on the ramp. Every time you click, it will rotate through to the next color mode.

I want to share a testimony on how Mr Pedro loan offer helped my life,
It isn't a good idea to use a payday loan on a regular basis. In the event that you endlessly prolong your repayment date and borrow often towards your subsequent paycheck, it could run you a good amount of money. However, it is just as sensible to decide on payday loans as they can be swiftly approved exactly the same day you put in your loan application form. You can contact Mr Pedro loan offer because my payday loan was very fast to proceed, email pedroloanss@gmail.com to request any kind of loan. Whatsapp +18632310632.... thank you.
