Recalling Palettes

Recalling a palette can be done in two different ways. You can recall a whole palette, so you don't
need to remember which channels are used for what palette.To recall only specific parameters of a
palette, select channels and the required parameters (or those not required, using the [-] key) in the
command line.

The following are methods that can be used to recall palettes.

[Recall From] {Color Palette} {4} [Enter] - selects all the channels in color palette 4 and sets

them to the color value recorded in the palette.

[Channel List] {Edge} {Beam Palette} [n] [Enter] - recalls only the edge data from the

specified beam palette for the selected channels.

[Channel List] {Edge} {Beam Palette} [n] {Make Abs} [Enter] - recalls only the edge data

from the specified beam palette for the selected channels and makes that absolute data.

[Intensity Palette] [y] [at] [/] [z] [Enter] - recalls the intensity palette for selected channels

and sets all recalled intensity values to a proportioned level of their recorded states.

The above example breaks the referenced link to the intensity palette. To maintain the link, the
palette must be recalled without a modified intensity value. Calling back the intensity palette at full
will also break this link.

You can also make a channel selection and recall from a palette to display the actual recorded
value.

For Example:

For this use of recalling palettes, you must first select the channels and then which palette

you are recalling from.

[3] [Recall From] {Color Palette} {5} [Enter]

As long as channel 3 was previous recorded in color palette 5, channel 3 will now be set to

color value recorded in that palette. In this case, the channel is not referencing the palette.

It has been given the absolute value as stored in the palette.
