Hi, any ideas on the best/easiest way to make a color change over time WITHOUT having to cycle through all the colors in the spectrum? For example, if I want an object to start off blue, and then over time, change to orange, I have been using keyframes with the "color adjust" function in the FX sheet. BUT, it cycles through other colors that I do not want displayed... I just want blue to orange, directly.
Thanks for your help!

They are many solutions.
If your object is not animated :
Create a 2 frames layer.
On frame 1 copy your object in the start color.
On frame 2 copy your object and colorize it with an fx or some brush strokes in colorize mode.
Now stretch the layer to the wanted size, in the dialog box, choose "Stretch" and check "interpolate".
If your object is animated on a layer (an isolated) :
Duplicate the layer. Colorize all the frames in the destination color.
Apply the Fade transition fx to that layer, starting at 100% and ending at 0% at the last frame.
You can also use the color replacer. Select the start color as "Color" value.
Select the start color as "to color" key value at start frame.
Select the destination color as "to color" key value at end frame.
apply the stack.
Of course, when the color is between blue and orange, you will get a mixed color, but it should not result in a full spectrum gradation.
