Landmark_SIG_037 Special Interest Group October 2013

I recorded the movie for the special-interest group but unfortunately my recording program crashed at the end of the session in the entire movie was lost. I have re-created most of the topics that we talked about in this short 15 min. movie. The main topic we covered was custom colors. This topic is applicable to everybody using Vectorworks not just landmark uses, so I recommend this movie to everybody. This session looked at how to create a custom color palette, how to create your own custom colors and how to find the color information you need from a photograph. Topics Covered:

• Choosing a color
• color palette manager
• adding a color palette to the Attributes palette
• creating a new custom color palette
•  adding a new color
• RGB sliders
• using photoshop elements to find color information
• eyedropper tool in photoshop

• lightening or darkening colors
• activating a color palette
• viewing colors as a grid or list
