neoCatalog offers a very useful tool to generate multiple new colorways with different color combinations, using your color libraries, and very fast. Those colorways can be created with multichannel and hybrid designs. For digital designs, one advanced preference must be enabled, contact your administrator.
Unlimited random colorways
1. Select one colorway in the colorways view or open the colorway details view.
2. From the menu bar, choose the option 'Random colorways' option from the '+' button.
3. New colorway combinations will be displayed using the color library. If you want to get different color combinations, you could generate more with the corresponding button:
If you are coloring digital designs (RGB), you will see HSL slides, to adjust the color for the new color variations.
4. Another option to generate random colorways more accurately, is by blocking some channels and generating further colorways that would have the selected colors. Clicking on the channel you want, the padlock of the channels that you choose will show locked.
5. Double-clicking on any colorway will be selected and pinned.
6. If you wish to publish a pinned colorway, or discard it, use the buttons on the top left corner of the design.
Interchange colors in channels
Users can mix up the placement of colors within channels, offering greater creative freedom and flexibility in their designs. The checkbox next to the generation enables the use of interchange channel colors from selected colorways for new combinations.
