Question

Swapping out colors in gradient mesh

Hi everyone,

I have a gradient mesh and I used a single pantone color to shade it, ie. with different tints of the one colour.

I want to see what it looks like in a different pantone color and wondered if there was a way to swap out the original color for a new one and keep the different percentages at the same time.

Any advice much appreciated.

    I have a different question for you. How can  I set a tint of a pantone colour? We used to be able to do this but now all I can find is opacity - but thats different. I want to use different flat colours as tints of pantone 369 to still print a job in 2 spot colours. Can you help?

    Set the Pantone color, then move the tint slider in the Color Panel.

    You could replace the swatch in the swatches palette.... Create a new object, assign the new color, Alt+drag it onto the original one.
