jan1 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Is there an easy way to read the color of a pixel. I'm using some of the BorisFX OFX plugins and the pixel chooser requires entry of a color value. It has the tree separate RGB values, but no automated color picker like other OFX UIs offer. So I have to determine the RGB values. I've had success putting a color grade node on top of OFX, using the 'Set Color' tab in the visual editor, going to 'Pick Color'. That reads out the RGB hex values. The OFX plugin however needs the float RGB values, so I have to use a calculate to convert hex to float. Workable, but hoping there's a faster way.

jan1 Posted November 16, 2019 Author Share Posted November 16, 2019 Ah perfect. I do think you have some things remapped though.... This sequence didn't work for me, but going back to the master classes, I found a reference to it, and it seems to be Control and right click by default. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cristobal Bolaños Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Quicktip: Did you know that you can use that tool in combination with the Scopes? ? Let me explain: If you use the Color Picker, the values will be highlighted in all the Scopes as well. As you can see in this screenshot: This is a really handy tool, specially when it comes to neutralizing the black and whites. The pure white is obtained when all the rgb values are the same. So if you use the color picker, and check if they differ, you can use the printer lights in small steps to equalize all the values. Hope you like this quick Mistika hack!
