Workflow issue with specific channel colors #28

Closed Ruuubickk closed 2 years ago

Ruuubickk commented 4 years ago

Hi,

Just got the tool and it's incredibly powerful, but i'm perplexed at how i can achieve something as simple as making the yellow color be red on my red channel, as i do not have the option to fill the white of the isolated channel with a specific color, nor do i have the option to adjust the HSV values of a specific channel.

This is not actually a bug, because you aren't supposed to be able to change the colour of a single channel. A single channel only represents a value, and when we combine the values of each channel, it becomes a particular RGBA colour. Isolate mode is designed to let you edit single channels, such as just Red, but it is displayed as a grey value when in isolate mode.

Because of the way the addon is implemented, isolate mode is actually operating on a full RGBA colour layer, so there are ways of using the default Blender tools to set a "channel" to something other than grey, and when you exit isolate mode, the channel will go back to being a single channel as it is packed into the RGBA layer it belong to.
