Demystify and Improve Your Understanding of Color:
If you want to learn more about color, here is the perfect tool. It puts you in control and assures compatibility within a group of colors. There is a selection of nine (9) hues in each color family. You can choose a pure red, a "hot" red which has a hint of orange or a "cool" red which has a bit of blue. When you choose a hue in your dominant color family you will instantly "see" the exact hues for the full color scheme. Then each color can be darkened or lightened in value, and grayed or brightened with clarity, to establish the exact color scheme you desire. How to Order.

Change the colors of a project to fit into your personal scheme:
Using the colors of a pattern, establish the dominant color and turn the arrow on the color wheel to that color. Then choose complementary, split-complementary or triadic as the scheme dictates. Now you are ready to move the dominant arrow to the color you wish to substitute. The program will automatically register your newly chosen color scheme.
