dgoubitz Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Hi smart people, I was wondering if there is any way to sample an region/stroke with the color picker in Houdini, this so that you can get the average color. Very handy with noisy reference to filter out the result a bit. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AslakKS Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Hi, Don't know of a way to do it with the color picker but you could always just do it in sops, I did a quick setup not very efficient. This is a great color sampler. https://techie.se/?p=gallery&type=houdini_assets&item_nr=6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgoubitz Posted July 17, 2019 Author Share Posted July 17, 2019 Thanks Aslak! Your tool did pop up already when trying to find an answer, I'll give it a try I did by accident find the solution, little button to switch to a images, then you can "shift + LMB drag" to sample an area. Doc's for other people interested: https://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/ref/windows/coloreditor.html#image 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
