Hi everyone!

I made the switch from Studio 8 to CS4 not too long ago, and have been learning CS4 for a while. But I’m having a problem that’s holding me back. How do I adjust the hexadecimal code (i.e. #e8e8e2) manually? I see no place to insert your code, and I kind of need that for doing web design. Thanks for any help you can offer me!

Click on the foreground or background to bring up the color picker box. You can type your code in there.

In the Color Picker dialogue, look for the box next to the # symbol (immediately below the RGB boxes)

Just type the code without the # since the # is automatically assumed by Photoshop.

There is no field in the Color Picker in which I can enter a hexadecimal color; just RGB values, etc. Can I post screenshots here to show you?

That’s the HDR color picker – only available in 32 bit/channel.

If you’re using hex values, you’re probably doing web development, and should be in 8 bit/channel.
