Color picker picks up the light color in Adobe XD.

iOS:バージョン10.15.1

AdobeXD:バージョン 24.1.22

 

スポイトで色を拾うと少し薄い色を拾っています。

Photoshopのように細かい設定がないので、この場合はどうすればよいのでしょうか。

これから、アンインストールしてからインストールを試してみます。

 

Translate by mod.
When I pick up the color with a dropper, I pick up a little lighter color. Since there is no detailed setting like Photoshop, what should I do in this case?
Now try uninstalling and then installing XD app.

返事が早くてとても助かります。

 

アップルの「設定」→「ディスプレイ設定」→「各モニターのカラーをsRGB」

に変更することで解決しました。

スポイトの色がモニターに起因することを初めて知りました。

 

ただ、今までこのバグが起きていなかったので、

アップデートで改善されることを待っています。

ありがとう。

Has there been any forward progress on this issue? It's been long enough to employ a fix for this hasn't it?

• Adobe XD 56.12.0.6

• MacBook Pro Built-in Liquid Retina XDR Display

• LG UltraGear 34GP83A

 

There are no matching sRGB profiles and frankly I don't think I need to fuss with them for the software to work appropriately. The Adobe Illustrator eyedropper works in any situation as expected and without having to make display profile changes. Is there any reason this function can't be adopted with XD?

I just tried Adobe XD for the first time and immediately ran into this. I don't have time to debug software... I am uninstalling XD and switching to Figma or Sketch. I will checkm back in on XD again in a few years. Disappointing.

I'm experiencing issues with the color picker. It only shows one color no matter what. I can use the hue slider, which only shows white. See attached video.


Tried reinstalling XD, updating video drivers. Nothing seems to work. Color pickers in other apps all work fine.

Since this is one of the top results searching for solutions to this, I'll share this here as well.

For those looking for a solution to this, here is what worked for me after 4 days of troubleshooting:

 

Turn off 10bit color mode, switch it to 8bit.

On windows, with an Nvidia GPU, I changed this in the Nvidia Control Panel.

 

The weird thing for me is that sometimes it'd work with 10bit and then the next time I'd start XD it'd break again. It seems like it is an issue with Windows 10 UWP apps in general as transparency effects in other apps using the "fluent design" framework were having similar issues as well.

 

Hope this helps some people out.

Hi David,

 

Thank you for reaching out!

Sorry to hear you're experiencing issue with color picker not showing dark colors in XD. We would suggest try switching your monitor in your Display settings to sRGB.

 

Let us know if that helps.

 

Thanks,

Harshika

I'm also having this problem. Color picker doesn't show dark colors. I can however pick any dark color except the picker shows them as white.

 

Latest windows updates installed, latest adobe XD, latest graphics card drivers.

I also set both of my LG gaming monitors to sRGB.

 

WIndows 10 Pro v 2004. OS build 19041.508

XD v 33.0.12 - not working

PS v 21.2.3 - working

AI v 24.3 - working

 

This however does not occur in Photoshop or Illustrator

 

Any other tips?

Hello,

 

I recently enabled 10-bit color on my display from Nvidia Control Panel to utilize it while working on certain files in Photoshop. However, when I open up Adobe XD while the 10-bit output is enabled, the colors got all weird in the color picker and it's not displaying correctly. Though, I noticed this only in color picker. Colors rendered on canvas are rendered properly I'd say. Please note that in Photoshop everything works great.

 

This is how color picker looks like when the 10-bit display is enabled:

 

Any way to fix this without disabling 10-bit colors on my graphic card?

Hi there,

 

Sorry to hear you are having trouble with color picker not showing darker colors. Would you mind trying to launch your window from your native display. If that doesn’t work, you might try switching your monitor in your Display settings to sRGB?

 

Let me know if that helps.

 

Thanks,

Harshika

Hello I have problem in adobe XD. On my PC (nVIDIA RTX2070) the color palette is displayed as follows (see figure). it shone a month ago. I reinstalled the adobe XD and graphics drivers and nothing helped. It's very annoying and you can't work with it. I have Windows 10 completely up to date.

 

Please help.
