Thread: Select by color

  1. #1

    Question Select by color

    A PNG has been converted to curves. There are hundreds of pieces, Colors need to be selected and joined.
    What is the best way to do this in XARA?
    Ive tried Naming colors, although it allows easy change of color, it does not select the color.

    sadicus, once Named, you can use the Name gallery to red dot the Named colour, which selects all those so coloured,

    Ah yes, the ol "Red Dot" trick. I was looking under Color, not, Names.
    Thanks!

    A PNG is a bitmap. I am not sure how converting to curves would do anything. Help me here.

    Or an old Abobe (can't think of the name of the product now) that saved files as .png though they could be vectors.
