How do I clear my color swatches in Photoshop CS3?

with 16 comments

The only way I know to clear your color swatches palet in Photoshop is to drag each individual swatch to the trash. That sucks! That’s why I created the No Swatches Photoshop pallet to clear your color swatches fast and easy! Just choose “Replace Swatches…” from the Swatches window menu and replace your current swatches with No_Swatches.aco.

  7. Thanks! This has always been one of those photoshop quirks that just didn’t make any sense and had no real solution.

  9. Sweet! What a nice thing you did there. I don’t know why I hadn’t thought of an empty swatches file. Good call and thanks doubly for the effort to help us all!

  10. This won’t load in CS5 – but a quicker way to delete swatches is to hold alt(win) or opt(osx) over each swatch and quickly click to delete them one at a time

    • Loaded just fine for me in CS5. Also, I tried your way…clicking on each one while alt was held down. Clicking as fast as I possibly could still wasn’t faster then 4 click to load this palette.
