Image palette

---

The Image palette (Window Color Palettes Image Palette) stores the colors that are used in your image. Every time you use a color in your image, it’s automatically added to the Image palette. However, if you prefer to control which colors are added to the Image palette, you can disable the automatic updates and add colors manually.

When adding colors manually, you can choose colors from a color palette, the image, or a color picker. In addition, you can add colors from an imported image or object.

Drag an object to the Image palette to add colors.

You can clear the Image palette of any unwanted or unused colors by removing colors individually or refreshing the palette to remove all unused colors at once.

When you open an image that was created in a previous version of Corel PHOTO-PAINT, the Image palette does not contain any colors. However, you can easily build the Image palette by adding colors from the entire image, an editable area, or a selected object.

You can also hide the Image palette.
