Color Picker Tool

The fastest way to select colors with color mixing fixtures is to use the Color Picker tool. To use it, select the fixtures then press and hold the [TOOLS] button and choose [S11] - Color Picker (you may need to select <more> if Color Picker is not visible):

An image box will appear:

Using the mouse, click and drag in this space and the selected color mixing fixtures will attempt to simulate the color under the cursor. If they are not already, they will be switch to the RGB color space. When you are happy with the color, close the Color picker by either pressing [ENTER] or [REL] or right clicking. Since the Color Picker was the last Tool, if you press and release the [TOOLS] button you will get the Color Picker again.

While the Color Picker is open, pressing [S1] will switch the image. A number of images are supplied, but you can save any image you want (including images from digital cameras) to the same location that your show file is saved and these too will appear in the list. Double press [S1] to open a large popup showing all available images:
