    Hi all,

    I have a colour scheme in an interior setup and need to get the colours (which I spent a long time choosing to work together in Sketchup using the colour wheel), into Photoshop to add a 'grain' to in order to make them look like an actual material for rendering with Podium.

    As you'll all know the 'Edit texture in image editor' option is not available for just colours.

    Any way I can get the exact same colours into PS???

    Thanks

      I know pantone had some swatches somewhere, in 3D Warehose or their site. Not sure where though

        I might be mis-understanding what it is you want, but for an example, I just "painted" something with 0003_DeepPink, when I go to edit, it gives me R=255, G=20, B=147, I can use the color picker in PS, and enter these same numbers, and it will result in the same color.

        It's not colors to a computer, just numbers.

        If your question isn't what I understood it to be just re-phrase it, I'll be happy to help!

        Edit: Oh, looks like you need to switch back to RGB, for this to work

          ^ Yeah I tried that, though for some reason when I go to the RGB in colour pallette in Skp, the values are all zero!!

          Even with the colour selected etc etc.

          Who knows... I've just done it by eye now, thanks!

            It's a known bug on the mac. editing a color using hsb, rgb or grayscale does not show the actual color at first. I usually go to the color wheel, move the color indicator just slightly, and then go back to rgb or hsb. It then shows the actual color, slightly modified. If there is a better way, i,ll be happy to learn!
