    PowerSelector Nifty CTRL+Click Trick
     
    With thanks to Gino Cortesi for sharing this nifty trick on the discussion groups:

    If you create a selection set that contains nine colours, those same colors are then highlighted in the colour tab of the PowerSelector.

    Doing a CTRL+Click on a highlighted colour will cause the PowerSelector to only keep that colour and deselect all others.
