Changing the color units

When you are editing a color in the Color Editor, you can use either percentages or values from 0 to 255. These color units are also used to make up the names for colors imported from color and palette files, for example R126G0B0 or R85%G0%B0% depending on the color units setting.

To change the color units

1. From the Utilities Menu, choose Options.

2. Click the Units tab.

3. In the Color Units section, choose Percent or 0-255.

Tip

If you need to enter a value in the other format from the one you have chosen, you can force the units by typing (for example) "25%" (for a percentage) or "25d" (for 0 to 255 value).
