Inkscape

Flat color is light grey with no RGB,HSL,CMYK,Wheel,Cms tabs what do I do to find them?

Asked by Dawn Wilson

I am trying to use the RGB tab under the flat color tab in the fill and stroke drop down box but they are not there. In the stroke style tab everything is light grey and will not let you click on anything in there also. How do I find the RGB color tab?

Hi Dawn,

you need to select an object to be able to change it's fill and stroke.
Just click on the thing you want to change and then try to change fill and stroke (this is only possible for vectors, not for imported bitmap images). Remember that a fill needs to be set (the X icon is not pressed, the flat color icon is pressed). You will find the RGB tab at the left.
