kev2 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Is there a tool for picking colors from images in Houdini? I want to match the base color of a material to a color in the background image displayed in the viewer (in this case, I have an image of a concrete bridge and want to match the base color of the clay shader for a new CG column to the existing bridge columns). Thanks, Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanBode Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 If you middle mouse click and drag on the color swatch in a color parameter, you can pick any color on your screen, even outside of houdini. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev2 Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 Maybe it's my Wacom tablet. When I middle click on the base color swatch, the cursor changes to crosshairs and when I move over the viewport (or anywhere), I can create a rectangle but when try to grab the color, it doesn't transfer to the swatch.
