Sometimes we want to shift the color values on ourr artwork to create effects or balance the colors. Use color adjustment to do that.

#### 1. Tone selection

Select which tone to apply the adjustment: Highlight, mid-tone, shadow, or all,

#### 2. Color space

Whether to adjust using HSV values or RGB channels.

#### 3. Value sliders

Slide these sliders to adjust the corresponding values: hue, saturation, value, red, green, blue, or alpha.

#### 4. Layer selector

Whether to apply to selected layers, visible layers, or all layers.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
This is not available in [indexed mode](/misc/color-modes.md#indexed) because it will apply directly to the palette instead of individual pixels.
{% endhint %}

#### 5. Frame selector

Whether to apply to selected frames or all frames.

{% hint style="info" %}
This is not available in [indexed mode](/misc/color-modes.md#indexed) because it will apply directly to the palette instead of individual pixels.
{% endhint %}

#### 6. Preview toggle

If this toggle is one, the changes will be displayed live on the canvas.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
Keep in mind that if we're adjusting colors on many layers and frames with Preview on, it might lag. If that happens, we can turn this off, adjust values, and turn it on again to see the effect. Repeat this to avoid lag.
