Learn how to use the Color and Swatches panels, and edit foreground and background colors.
Color panel overview
The Color panel (Window > Color) displays the color values for the current foreground and background colors. Using the sliders in the Color panel, you can edit the foreground and background colors using different color models. You can also choose a foreground or background color from the spectrum of colors displayed in the color ramp at the bottom of the panel.
The Color panel may display the following alerts when you select a color:
An exclamation mark inside a triangle
appears above the left corner of the color ramp when you choose a color that cannot be printed using CMYK inks.A square
appears above the left corner of the color ramp when you choose a color that is not web-safe.
A. Foreground color B. Background color C. Slider D. Color ramp
Change the color model of the Color panel sliders
To change the color model of the color panel sliders, choose the Sliders option from the Color panel menu.
Change the spectrum displayed in the Color panel
Choose an option from the Color panel menu — RGB Spectrum, CMYK Spectrum, or Grayscale Ramp, to display the spectrum of the specified color model. To change the spectrum displayed in the Color panel, you can select:
- Current Colors: To display the spectrum of colors between the current foreground color and the current background color.
- Make Ramp Web Safe: To display only web‑safe colors.
To change the spectrum of the color ramp quickly, shift-click the color ramp until you see the spectrum you want.

How to use new Presets in Photoshop
Learn all about applying Photoshop’s new and improved Presets panels. Julieanne Kost explores everything from swatches to patterns, from gradients to styles and shapes.
Apply swatches to layers
To apply a color swatch to text layers or shape layers, do any of the following:
- Select one or more layers in the Layers panel and then click any of the swatches in the Swatches panel to apply it.
- Drag a swatch from the Swatches panel onto the layer's content on the canvas area.
- Drag a swatch from the Swatches panel onto a layer in the Layers panel.
To apply a color swatch to pixel layers, drag a swatch from the Swatches panel on a pixel layer in the Layers panel. Photoshop automatically creates a fill layer on top of the pixel layer.
Organize swatches into groups
To organize swatches under a new group:
- In the Swatches panel, click the Create New Group icon.
- Specify a group name and click OK.
- Drag a swatch or use the Shift key to select multiple swatches to drag them inside the Group.
To create nested groups:
- Select a group in the Swatches panel.
- Drag the selected group and place it under another group.
Show legacy swatches
To show legacy swatches, open the Swatches panel menu and select Legacy Swatches.
