Can't change text color (Im Using: Image>mode>RGB colours)

[Grave]

Hey,

I'm Having a problem changing the color of text, once I have typed it in I go to the text color tab at the top and select the color I want: in this case I wanted #4bd1fc(for the "MAC PRO REFRESH" layer - see screenshot), but the color simply stays black or grey or white, depending on the color chosen, and i have tried most colors.

My Image is not set to greyscale, Im using RGB color , 8/bit channel.
Ive even tried using a color overlay on the text, but that does nothing.

I have attached a screenshot of photoshop.

Please help!:sad:

Regards

from the looks of it there is no text selected you need to highlite the text you want to change colour with double click the T in the layer panel to select it all. if all else fails upload your psd so then we can have a look at it and detect the problem easier (same way as you would upload an image just select the psd file instead)

Thanks for the feedback.

The text is/was definatly selected, it even tells me the text is blue when i select it! :mad2:

I have attached another screenshot, as to how I went about changing the colour, just incase a moment of idiocy overcame me.

I have also attached the PDF file.

Ok I think I can see the problem you have a grey overlay adjustment layer try disabling that and it should work will have a look at psd

I cant work out exactly where the problem is probably in your grouping but I have found a work around if you dont want to trace it back delete the text layer you want to change the colour off and create a new layer on top of all the groups so it is top layer and alone and it works just fine with any colour
