Procreate offers a number of different ways to explore and select new colors.
When you first open the Color Panel, you see the Color Disc by default. The below options are explored more fully in the Handbook sections to follow.
Color Disc offers an outer Hue ring around an inner zoomable Saturation disc, allowing for fine touch control over your color selection.
Classic presents a traditional take on color selection, offering Hue / Saturation / Brightness sliders combined with a standard square color picker.
Harmony gives you pleasing color suggestions based on your currently selected shade.
Value offers precision sliders along with numerical and hexadecimal values for exact color matching.
Palettes gives you access to sets of color swatches. Procreate includes several standard palettes. You can also import palettes, and create your own. The current Default palette is displayed at the bottom of each of the above Color Panel modes.
You can quickly switch to any of the above modes using the tabs at the bottom of the Color Panel.
Now you can take your Color Panel with you.
When invoked, the Color Panel pops up in the top right of the screen. To reposition it anywhere on the canvas, drag the small grey bar at the top of the Color Panel. The entire Color Panel will detach from the top menu bar and shrink to a smaller, simplified version that you can drag anywhere on the screen: the Color Companion.
To return it to its original dock, tap the X button at the top right of the Color Companion.
The Color Button displays your currently selected color.
Tap the Color Button to open the Color Panel.
Press and hold the Color Button to switch between your current and previous color.
The color will spread outwards until it hits a boundary - for example, an outline, or an area of different color.
You can control how much your ColorDrop fill bleeds into and over the edges of your artwork using ColorDrop Threshold.
At lower thresholds, the color will confine itself to smaller areas. At higher thresholds, the color will bleed into outlines and break through them to fill neighboring areas.
To activate Threshold, drag the Color Button over the area you want to fill, but don’t release it. After a moment, ColorDrop Threshold will activate.The threshold amount is represented by a thin bar above the artwork. Drag your finger to the left to fill less area, and to the right to fill more area. Lift your finger to commit the fill.
ColorDrop will remember your chosen Threshold setting until you change it again. If you have it set to 100%, it will save at 97.6% to avoid color overflow.
Use ColorDrop in conjunction with Reference Layers to easily keep your inks and colors separate.
Tap and hold anywhere on your canvas to invoke the Eyedropper instantly.
Once the Eyedropper appears, drag it to any location on the canvas, and release to select your color.
Your new color is displayed on the top half of the loupe and the current color on the bottom half. As soon as you let go, your new color is selected.
Hold the Modify button on the sidebar. With your other hand, tap anywhere on the canvas to instantly invoke the Eyedropper.
If you hold your finger on the canvas, you can drag the Eyedropper to your desired location and release to select a color.
