Tips & tricks

In Generate, lock the colors you like before drawing again; only unlocked slots change. Press Space on Mac to draw quickly, and use Reset to return all adjustment sliders to neutral.

Drag a palette row to a design app for SVG swatches, or drag a single color from the catalog when you only need one swatch. Use Favorites to keep frequently used colors and palettes close at hand.

In From Image, zoom in before sampling fine details. Select a swatch and click or tap the image to replace it, or drag its numbered marker. Drag outside a marker to pan. Use + to add another sample while keeping the existing ones.

On Mac, hold Shift while using the screen picker for its precision loupe. If you use MCP, turn the server off in Settings when you are finished; it is available only while Huebook is open.

To keep a color from Recent Picks permanently, move it to another group before the history limit removes it. Marking it as a favorite alone does not move it out of Recent Picks.
