  • Can’t grab Colorama triangles in CS3!

    Posted by Greg Neumayer on September 9, 2007 at 8:12 pm

    Is anyone else having an “all thumbs” experience with Colorama in CS3? Every time I double click on the triangles to adjust my color, the first click deletes it, then the second click opens the color pallet to add a new color. It takes me about 3 tries to actually modify a color I’ve added to my wheel. The only solution I’ve found is to carefully 1-click the triangle I want, making it active; then carefully double-click just in the point where the triangle touches the wheel of color. That usually allows me to edit the color. For some reason it’s almost as hard to double-click them now as it is to grab the bezier handles of my masks (another gripe of mine.)

    Am I all thumbs, or has anyone else noticed a change?
    Is there a keyboard stroke equivalent to “modify this color?”

    We saw a similar post over on adobe.com. Seems to be a rea issue with CS3.
    Can we call it a BUG?

    Yes! Let’s do. Then I can stop feeling like I’m losing my fine motor skills.

    Oh, note that I’m using the base version of CS3, and haven’t yet upgraded to the x.x.1 version. (and I’m on X.4.9) Maybe they already fixed it for us?

    > What os? Works just fine on my Mac. Maybe it’s a display driver problem. < Sam, thanks for the clue. I experienced this AE/CS3/Colorama problem a few eeks ago when it came up on adobe.com. It was repeatable on both of my AE installs. I just opened up AE and tried Colorama. Seems to have been fixed with a recent update from Adobe, dunno for sure, I just run those suckers when I get notified. AE 8.0.1.8 Mac OS 10.4.1.0 QT 7.2 bogiesan
