Pens & Colors

[Anonymous]

I try to make some new colors in Options/Element Attributes/Pens & Colors.
I want the same colors as I have on a picture. So I open the picture in Gimp, find the values of hue, saturation, value and RGB. Every value is given in decimal values. I try to put the same values into the panel I have described.
But, as I'm about to enter the values, the other values I've already entered are changed. What can I do to obtain what I want ?

You either adjust the HUE, SAT & LUM OR the RED, GREEN & BLUE.

One set will adjust the other so you may not be able to get exactly the same values in both that you see in Gimp.
You will have to choose which looks best.

So that is how it works. I'll try that. Thanks!
