    How to change the drawing color of the Snipping Tool?


    When I use the snipping tool to save something on my desktop and then choose to draw or write something the color seen is blue. If I go to Properties and change that color it has no effect. It remains blue. How do I change that color? I use such a tool in my online classes and blue is not visible on other blue or black. Thank you

    :)

    Snipping Tool Changing Image Color?!

    Hi, I have been using the Snipping Tool for a long time and like it. Today, for the first time, it changed the color of the image I am trying to snip. It did the same thing in the new Snip & Sketch. It overlays a darker reddish tint, changing yellow to
    orange and green or light blue to brown. It does not go away when the tool does as it used to do. Would anyone please help me with this? I use poem images in my blog, and this will make everything very drab. I just want to keep the color of my original images.
    Thank you so much. Amy

    Change Photo app default draw color Win10

    Hi Ryan,

    Wrong configuration settings may be the possible cause why the draw color was default. To assist you better, we'd like to clarify few things:

    • Have you made any recent changes prior to this issue?
    • Are you able to change the draw color before?

    Any response will be highly appreciated.
