Selective Color

Selective Color allows you to modify the amount of a process colour in any primary colour—without affecting the other primary colours.

1. Select Image > Adjustments > Selective Colour.
2. Select Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Selective Colour. Click OK in the New Layer dialog box.
3. Select the colour you want to adjust from the Colours menu at the top of the dialog box. Colour sets consist of the primary additive and subtractive colours plus whites, neutrals, and blacks.
4. For Method, select an option:
   Relative Changes the existing amount of colour as a percentage.
   Absolute Adjusts the colour in absolute values.
5. Drag the sliders to increase or decrease the components in the selected colour.
