RGB<br />

RGB is the default color model which is most popular among the editors of raster<br />

objects. Colors are preserved when editing the same object by several editors.<br />

Grayscale<br />

The model is best for editing old photos and creating old-photo type images or blackand-white<br />

images. Open the image and select ImageModeGrayscale to make the<br />

image grayscale.<br />

a) original image b) after ImageModeGrayscale command is<br />

applied<br />

When editing the image, you cannot use other colors but grey hues. If you select green<br />

for the Pencil tool , you will paint in light grey in the image.<br />

Note!<br />

When you return to RGB mode, you will not restore colors because the information on<br />

the color for each pixel is lost. You may select colors for <strong>tools</strong> and use them to<br />

supplement the image as well as to apply filters.<br />

Indexed<br />

This mode lets you set hues and the amount of colors mixed in the image independently.<br />

Select ImageModeIndexed command to open the dialog
