colour change problem
Hi. When I try to use the colour replacer in the FX stack, I can't get the source colour to change. It stays as red. The cursor doesn't respond when I click on it. Am I missing something?
Re: colour change problem
the cursor doesn't change (it should be an arrow with a question mark), but it does the job : if you click anywhere on the screen after clicking on the source color, it will change.

Re: colour change problem
In my experience many new users are confused by the cursor changing to ? mark instead of the usual "eyedropper" . Could the Color Replacer be changed so the cursor changes to the eyedropper icon ? Also, I may have requested this before (and this gives me an opportunity to request it again ) but I think it would improve the functionality of the Color Replacer if the Color Panel Picker/Chromatic Wheel was embedded in the Color Replacer FX panel to make selecting a new destination color easier .Fabrice wrote:the cursor doesn't change (it should be an arrow with a question mark), but it does the job : if you click anywhere on the screen after clicking on the source color, it will change.

Re: colour change problem
Hi Fabrice, the cursor behaves as you describe when clicking on the destination colour square, but with the source colour square it doesn't respond at all. It was working earlier yesterday but when I tried again later it didn't, and it hasn't worked since. I've tried using it with different files, restarting the program, and restarting the PC.

Thanks Fabrice:

I'm working on an Intuos 4 I think, but the problem also occurs with the mouse.

Re: colour change problem
Dennis, could you also send us a screenshot of your interface (with layers, drawing space and FX stack open with color replacer) ?

Re: colour change problem
Incidentally I've tried it with different files; always the same problem.
Re: colour change problem
Ok so at least, everything seems alright in your interface (you are on the good layer, fx stack is active...).
Oh ! You're not up to date : some things have been fixed in the color replacer, so you should update to 11.0.3 first

Re: colour change problem
Hi. I've just updated to the new version, 11.0.3, but I've still got the problem.
Re: colour change problem
While reading again your post and looking in the code, we noticed you have your lines and color layers separated.
The FX color picker grab only the color from the current layer, not from the display (layer merged).
maybe it can help to find the problem.
