Hi!

 

After sampling a color in a simple image, and using the select->same->fill color option, nothing gets selected. I tried using various images. Please let me know if this is a bug.

Best handled in Photoshop. AI is a vector application not raster.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

 

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post if it helps you get responses.

My goal is to set all pixels that are white to the same new color.

I am simply trying to select all of the pixels that are white. I am running adobe illustrator 2013 and macOS ventura 13.1.

To select pixels, you will need to use Photoshop. In Illustrator, select->same->fill color will only choose vector-path fills.
