[USER=112691]@thebestcpu[/USER]   Interesting..............


When I originally tested this theory with multiple color samples on one layer, I got this. Note that the target ignore option is greyed out.

Next, I tried it with a single color sample and I got this. Which worked but the OP had a multi colored sample layer. Again, the target option is greyed out. **Step 2

WOW!!



Now your suggestion worked......note the target layer Ignore is now available...............where in the world did you find this??????? I searched everywhere looking for a solution to using "match Color" but nowhere was it ever mentioned to make a selection of one color on the multicolored sample layer!!!!! How did you figure this out???

Also, just in case it matters, the color of the wall is not an exact match to the sample. This sample point was the closet I could get to the actual color anywhere on the wall. But it is definitely close enough for me anyway!

**Step 2- My final opinion here is that "Match Color" with a single color sample layer is the best way to go about producing the most easy and consistent results based on specific color samples. I would just do a repeat process for each color by duplicating the wall layer as many times as needed for the number of samples I had. These could be grouped and easily turned off and on. I don't feel as though the "Match Color" process is what I would call editable as it is destructive and the process would have to be repeated. It could be slightly editable as long as you maintain a "Main Copy" of the original wall layer. I have not played with "Match Color" as a SO.


Now that I'm fascinated with the coloring of walls...............OCD.............I will still look for another technique that may work better!
