Regardless, there doesn't seem to be any good reason for there to be a "Color LCD" profile in /Library/ColorSync/Profiles/Displays on any iMac (since it won't match the characteristics of the iMac's screen & is probably an older one from some Mac laptop anyway). I checked my iMac bootable backup disks for 10.12.x 10.11.x & also in Time Machine backups for my iMac going as far back as 2014, & none of them have a "Color LCD" profile anywhere on them that I can find, not even in System/Library/ColorSync.Ī web search tells me that the "Color LCD" profile is Apple's factory default display profile for laptop Macs, & that the name as displayed in System Preferences > Display > Color tab applies to several different ones depending on the laptop it shipped with (so for example, it is nearly identical to the "Display P3" factory default profile for the 2017 MBP's but not for older MacBooks that don't have as wide a gamut screen). ![]() Now that you see how easy it is to use and how well it works, play with the color modes, tolerance settings, etc… I think you’ll find it to be quite a useful tool not only for changing colors completely, but simply color correcting them as well.My 10.13.6 installation does not contain a non-P3 "Color LCD" display profile alongside the P3 "iMac" display profile, but the 10.12.6 does.įWIW, I am not sure why any iMac would include a "Color LCD" profile in /Library/ColorSync/Profiles/Displays, other than maybe if files were copied from a laptop Mac at some point, like with migration assistant or manually by a user. You should now see the round outline of your brush with a little crosshair, just start painting over the area you want to color shift, being careful not to let the crosshair touch any color you DON’T want to shift (if it touches any other color, it will shift that color as well). You can also adjust the Tolerance, but try working with the tool a little first. ![]() ![]() These are the three main adjustments that need to be made. Second, make sure you select Contiguous from the Limits pop-up menu and you set the Mode to either Color or Hue. Be careful not to make the brush too large though, you want to keep some control. You’ll want to use a larger brush with a soft edge. First, click the Brush size icon and adjust your brush settings. Then you’ll need to make some quick adjustments in the Options Bar. Then click on the Color Replacement tool icon in the tool bar. To use the Color Replacement tool, choose a color to make the shirt. These and other methods work fine, of course, but take much more effort than is necessary. Still others would just use Selective Color under the Edit>Adjustments menu and hope that it didn’t alter the image too much. Many folks would spend a lot of time making a mask or clipping path, create a new layer and paint a color over top of the shirt, then adjust the layer transparency settings. Lets say you want to change the color of the shirt in a photo to better match your layout. ![]() No matter where you happen to find this little bugger, you’re going to love what it can do for you. In Photoshop CS2, Adobe decided that it needed to be moved next door to the Brush Tool (see image at right). In Adobe Photoshop CS it is bundled with the Healing Brush tool (another tool many people tend to “forget to use”). It’s not a terribly difficult tool to master, and using it once will show you how often you *could* use it. The Color Replacement Tool is often overlooked by many designers… mostly because it’s a relatively new tool, and partly because it’s somewhat hidden where you wouldn’t expect to find it.
