Pro users should choose Other…, then click on the Color button (to the right of the Hex value) and then click on the Magnifying Glass to sample the color. To sample a key color from the imported graphic, click and hold on the Key Color 1 popup, choose Other…, then click on the Magnifying Glass to the left of the color swatch, move over the imported graphic and click to select a color to sample. Note that if a background color is applied to the item in the General Settings tab of the Inspector, the transparency set in the Chroma Key Actions palette will mean that removed colors will blend in with the item's background color - or if the transparency is set to zero, the color set as the background color will display in its entirety. Zero percent means that the removed colors will be removed completely, 50% means that the removed colors will display with 50% transparency, and 100% will mean that the Action has no effect as the removed colors will display as if they are not removed.


With the item selected, see the options in the Actions palette: To apply the Action, select a graphic item containing an imported image, go to Item>Actions and choose Chroma Key. By using the Tolerance slider, a specified level of different hues can also be removed. The Action lets you choose a color (or sample an existing color from an imported image) to remove that color from the image. However, depending on the background, Chroma Key can offer a quick solution (though it will work best if the background uses a very narrow range of colors within a similar range of hues, and that the main image you wish to extract uses colors of different hues).
