Your instructions on that will come in handy. Part of my problem was not finding items that others were mentioning, such as "protect Alpha". Thank you! I will have to try this, I had a deadline and ended up tracing over my original lines with the color I needed. afphoto with History included so you can move the History slider back & forth to see the steps I used. Note: since Protect Alpha is the rightmost item on the context toolbar, if your workspace window is not wide enough to show it, you can click on the ≫ icon to pop up a submenu with that item on it.ĮDIT: added recoloring brush strokes example. With Protect Alpha enabled, the brush should change only the color of the lines without affecting anything else. Select the topmost duplicate layer & paint over the lines. (See note below if this checkbox is not visible.) Set the brush color to whatever you want & tick the " Protect Alpha" checkbox in the context toolbar. Any similar brush will do as long as it is 100% hard, 100% opaque, etc. Select the Paint Brush Tool & a large hard edged brush like maybe the round 128 px one from the Basic set. You want to have more than one version of this layer, with identical brush strokes except for their color. If I understand this correctly, you have a pixel layer with several black lines, probably created with the Brush tool with various brushes, hardness settings, etc. I did try changing the color using an adjustment layer and recoloring it, but I can't get the color I want. That person finally resolved his problem by using "Protect Alpha", but I can't find "Protect Alpha" in my program. I did see another discussion, when I searched the Color Replacement brush, about the color not changing correctly. I followed the instructions for the Color Replacement brush, but the only color that is changing is the very lightest of the feathered pixels along the edge of the line, but even they are not changing to the correct color, but a somewhat grayish hue of the replacement color I chose. Use the Gradient Tool to draw a linear gradient path in shades of grey to create ombre colour change effects. Invert the HSL Adjustment to paint the colour changes into the image, instead of erasing. I need to retain the feathering, so the flood fill won't work, since it makes them look thicker and chunky. Use the Paint Brush Tool and a brush coloured white to paint the HSL adjustment back into the image, where you’ve previously erased it. They took me quite awhile to get exactly how I wanted them, so I really don't want to try to redraw them especially since I would like to have two versions of the lines, and that would require redrawing them absolutely perfectly(not possible for me) twice. I have drawn some black lines, on a separate layer, but have now decided the lines need to be a different color.
