And I can also, by the way, as I modify the red value, I can see the green and blue sliders update on the fly. If I move this triangle midway down the red slider I can see I'm going to get purple. So you can actually preview the color you're going to get. And I want you to notice here inside the color panel, how these sliders update on the fly. And if you take the blue and red values all the way up to 255, and you take that green value down to zero, then you end up with magenta. If you crank the green and blue values up to 255, and you take the red value all the way down to zero then you end up with cyan. And so when you crank up the red and green values and you take the blue value all the way down to its minimum, you end up with yellow. And so what that does is it gives you 256 variations, one through 255, and then you also have the option of zero. Now notice that you can change these values from zero, that's the lowest, that basically turns the color off, all the way up to 255, which is the highest setting. Now if you don't see the RGB sliders, then you want to click on this, fly out menu icon in the upper right corner of the panel and choose RGB. And then once you've brought up your color panel, go ahead and click on this double arrow icon a couple of times to expose your primary sliders. So I don't want to choose the command, cause that would hide it. In my case, there's a check mark in front of color. And to give you a sense for what this looks like, I'll go up to the window menu and choose color in order to bring up the color panel. Now because you're starting with a black screen, once you add light, you're going to start brightening things up. So scanners and cameras are RGB devices, as is your computer screen, your gadgets and devices and anything else that lights up. So light that's being projected by a device or captured by a device. So in the case of RGB, we have red, green, and blue and these are light, by the way. Both RGB and CMYK stand for the color primaries. And so let's take a look at how they work. But the truth of the matter is, that RGB is the more flexible color mode, while CMYK, is designed specifically for print. But if you switch to any of the other profiles, web through basic RGB, all four of them are going to switch the color mode to RGB which is generally the way you're going to want to work which surprises a lot of folks. So if you select the print profile your color mode is going to change to CMYK. And that's going to change automatically when you select a profile. And so you may recall if you go up to the file menu and choose the new command, that you can see the color mode listed down here in the advanced section. And those are RGB and CMYK and only one mode can be at work inside any given document. In this movie, we'll discuss the two document color modes that are available to you inside Illustrator.
