Sometimes, when I’m trying to design something using a monochromatic color scheme, I want to make sure I get exact shades and tints of a specific color, but I don’t know how I can do that because I can never seem to make the color picker move in a straight line when I’m dragging it around.
Is there a way to do this in Illy, Photoshop or InDesign?
What I’m looking for is to make it so the color picker is forced to only move along one of the red lines I’ve drawn:
So I end up getting a perfect shade or perfect tint of the color that I’ve chosen.
Answer
Click the S or B options to the right and then adjust the vertical slider. This will retain the hue but allow you to alter saturation or brightness.
