Using the Control Thumbnails

The thumbnails in the Sky & Fog Palette are visual guides and are also used to set the attributes of the Sky & Fog effects.

To change the intensity of an effect, drag to the left or right, up or down, inside the thumbnail to change the intensity of the effect.

To pick a color for an effect, click the color bar below the thumbnail. A color picker appears and your pointer changes to an eyedropper.

While the eyedropper is active, you can select colors from anywhere in your scene, or even different parts of the interface.

For more control after picking with the color picker, you can switch to HLS mode and adjust saturation or lightness (less saturated colors can make for more realistic fog and haze effects), or you can enter numeric values if you need to precisely match specific colors.

For more on the different color pickers for both PC and Mac, refer to "Adjusting Editor Settings."
