Choosing Foreground and Background Colour
You can set foreground and background colour. It can be necessary when
you erase, paint, shear, or apply some other features to the image. Please
note that if you try to define a foreground or background colour while
working with black and white or grey scale image, any colour which you
selected for foreground or background, will be converted into black(white)
or grey accordingly.
To select a foreground or background colour you can execute one of the
following actions:
• Choose Foreground or Background from the Color menu, or
• Click foreground or background square in the Foreground or
Background box in the bottom of the toolbox. These squares show the
current foreground and background colour.
Select colour in the appeared Colour box, and then click OK .
Changing Colour Mode
You can change the image’s colour mode using the Color menu. These
commands do not work with regions. They are always applied to the
entire image. The result of the changes will be immediately shown in the
preview area.
Halftone: Makes the image look like simulated greyscales using different
combinations of 1-bit black and white pixels. Because this image type is
only 1-bit, the file size is smaller than greyscale.
Grayscale: Converts the image into a greyscale mode. All colour
information will be removed from the image and the image will be black-
and-white.
Resolution: Changes the colour depth of an image. Colour depth is
defined as the number of bits per one pixel of image. The more bits that
are used to represent one pixel, the more colours you can have in one
image. If you reduce the colour depth, the number of available colours is
also reduced.
