Added hex tab in color picker

On my MacBook Pro several years ago, I downloaded an app or utility that allowed a hexagonal tab on the color picker that appears particularly in MS Office applications, but I think that in other applications, too.

On my MacBook Air, running 10.11.4, I can't understand how to do the same thing.

I see a lot of apps in the App Store that allows to identify a hexadecimal number in a pixel, but I want to be able to, not necessarily IDENTIFY hex colors, but choose them in apps. I already know what Hex numbers I want to use, I want to be able to choose them, in Word, for example.

How can I do?

I use Hex Color Picker.  It is abandonware, but the latest version is always available on this site: http://wafflesoftware.net/ to download directly from this link: you can download this special version that has disabled updates.

It is a color picker plugin that goes in the Mac HD/library/ColorPickers folder or in your folder Users/home/library/ColorPickers .

It will be shown that circled in the color of any application selector pane

    My Adobe Flash CS6 color picker has WEIRD colors. I use Mac Mini OSX 10.8.1. Is there a solution?

    I click on the color picker and where I saw the normal color #0000ff blue on my windows computer, this version of mac mountain lion shows a color purple-ish. Strangely, if I enter the # hex in the color picker and use it as a filler, the correct color appears on the scene, but when I use the pipette on that color, it shows as purple color again on the toolbar.

    I saw something similar to this happen when you use adobe photoshop. However, the usual solution is just to do the color management profile to monitor RGB. The only drawback with Flash is there is no preference to set. The palette of colors in Adobe Photoshop displays as it should with correct blue.

    I should also mention that I use a Samsung 941bw monitor with my mac mini, which could also be part of the problem.

    I thought I would make this post anyway, just in case it's the OS & Adobe Flash CS6 and not the monitor.

    I've included a screenshot over which shows that I chose the color purple and then did a form of a rectangle on the stage and it comes out blue.

    Thanks for your response (s)

    You can try to change the display settings of your monitor in Adobe RGB color (1998).

    System Preferences > displays > color and see if that helps.

  • In photoshop CS6, I can't understand how to keep a tab open with 'color picker', as in previous versions. I always want to have a tab open with this option, so I can use the H to quickly select lighter and darker issues. How do I do that?

    What the title says.

    I think that is not the color picker, but it's rather (accessible via the window menu) color Panel which has the value (using the control in its right corner) to select cursors STL, as indicated above, so that you can ' use the H to select quickly the lighter and darker "values.

  • Why the Color Picker is a circle?

    Hello

    I have been using FCPX for a while and sometimes I need to use the color for a third-party effect selector, but instead of the usual pipette or magnifying glass icon, I get this big circle with a small rectangle at the Center.  It get bigger, but the circle is too much.  No idea what happened to the usual color picker?

    TIA,

    James

    The 'default' selector is a favorite of "color wheel" typical of most of the artists. It is indicative of the perceptual nature of color (red - orange - yellow - green - purple - blue - cyan - red.)

    The System color picker may be a circle of color wheel, sliders, 'tags' or tabs or color chart (However, you want to refer to them), spectrum and color pencils (48 colors). There are five small icons at the top of the switch. Choose the system that you want to use. If you select the selector of cursors, you will have the option of grayscale, RGB, CMYK and HSB. You can also 'load' the squares down with your "favourites".

    You may prefer the spectrum switch:

    You can also try right clicking on the color tab in the Inspector (or click on the arrow down on the right side) and you will get this compact popup:

    but there will be a pipette instead of the arrow cursor.

  • Using the color picker to the linear gradient does not

    Sorry for the bad English, I really don't know how to ask this question tbh.

    I'm doing a degraded, object using four colors that I put in place. I did four arrows to the linear gradient bar, but the second, I use the color picker to add the right color, changing the bar of solid colorand gradient bar disappear. I tried many things and scoured the internet to find answers, but can't find anything about this problem. I'm this Adobe Illustrator Gradient GOLD text, logo - YouTube video and this is the stage at 03:07 that does everything just for me. I would appreciate help!

    Thank you

    Rather than put into squares colors use color chart & global colors (indicated by a white triangle at the bottom of the swatch)

    To apply the nuance to a point of gradient is easy. You select the point of gradient (indicated by a black triangle above the point of gradient). ALT then click a color in the Swatches palette to fill this gradient.

    If you use global colors, you can easily double, click a shade and change colors and all uses of the color update.

    Here, I've added 44 black to make the Green darker.

    World Vision automatically adjusts the point of gradient.

  • Why a Mac Color Picker shortcut is leading my ability to center the text (Command-Shift-C)?

    I don't know if it's an OS X 10.11.4 issue, or if it's because of a recent change in InDesign - but instead of letting me my text centered, a weird system color picker shows when I hit shift-command-C.

    I can't find where to disable this shortcut via the system preferences; and I really want to change the shortcut text Center.

    Any ideas? Thank you!

    Okay, figured it out. I have a piece of software called "Sip" which can enjoy the values HEX off what anyone on the screen. Since it is an element of status bar, it was the substitution of commands to InDesign. I disabled it when working in InDesign, and it is fixed. Thanks for your contributions!

  • How can I get the color picker to select the hexadecimal value by default?

    Hello world!

    I've upgraded to Photoshop CC 2015, and now when the color picker appears, it selects only the value of C (cynan) by default, which is useless. How can I move it back so the Hex value is selected by default?

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Ah! I have it. If I open a new file and select the CMYK mode, C is highlighted.

    If I open a new file and select RGB, I get the Hex field highlighted.

    I'm confused about what goes where. From what I've read so far, the JS should go in the Page Properties > metadata > HTML.

    The HTML code should be inserted via object > insert HTML code? No idea on the CSS.

    Ignorance is frustrating.

    Hello

    To respond to your request.

    A. JS and CSS goes to the head section of the page. Therefore, you must add the same using:

    1. right click on your page

    2. choose "page properties".

    3. choose the metadata

    4. add javascript/CSS in the section head, as defined below:

    For JS:

    For the CSS:

    Take a look:

    B. to set HTML on a page, you just to use the "Insert html" option and place your HTML code. Take a look:

    I hope this helps

    Let me know if you have any additional questions.

    Hello

    I remember this one looked more complicated than it is.

    The color picker is not a real after effects user interface, but it's an OS user interface. Is not in the SDK of EI, but in the SDK of ExtendScript (JavaScript Tools Guide)

    $.colorPicker (name)

    name: the color to be shortlisted in the dialog, as an RGB hex (0xRRGGBB) value, or - 1 for the default value of the platform.

    Return number

    defaultColor var = 0xff0000;

    var color = $.colorPicker (defaultColor);

  • Properties Color Picker in Fireworks CS4 picks up is more color

    I upgraded to OS Lion yesterday and this morning have noticed that the colors in the properties pane selector at the bottom of the screen no longer works. I only will change color if I select one of nuance, but not of an element on the page. I can only change to a different color by manually entering the hex code. It's incredibly long, for a variety of tasks such as change the font colors, color swap, color fill etc etc. !

    Don't know if the upgrade of the OS has nothing to do with it, but it's the only thing that has changed on my computer since yesterday.

    Does anyone have ideas how I can get around this or if there aosme other settings I can change to make it work again? Thank you!

  • help please - color picker went in photoshop cs4

    for some reason, when I saved as gif files, I could not reopen. I would get an error message. so, I read somewhere close photoshop and restart while pressing ctrl + alt + shift keys to reset all default values.

    I did, but now when I click on the squares of color of foreground or background at the bottom of the toolbar, I get a window stupid color with 48 squares base color and a couple like empty seats for custom colors.

    No matter what I try to reset, I can't have the color picker, and I have no way to find hex colors.

  • Problem of color picker

    Hello

    A problem that I've never experienced with Photoshop CS4 (running on Windows 7).  I can't seem to find a solution online, so I hope that someone here will have some suggestions.

    In fact, when I shoot to the top of my color picker, I have more a smooth gradient of color; Instead, I'm getting that radiate to the upper left corner.  "Only Web colors" is not checked, but my Color picker appears much as it would if it had been checked (only the banding is less accurate - maybe to halfway between the way he normally looks and the way he usually expects the checkmark Web colors).  It is also causing my brushes behaving oddly; the colors are interacting in a funny way, producing mixtures really desaturated sometimes, and other times, appearing almost to have some sort of effect of burning/multiply current.  All the layers and brushes are set to normal and the image mode is RGB.

    Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions, I'd like to hear them.  The only thing I did recently I can think who might have caused it is an update of Windows on a bunch of my drivers, yesterday afternoon, which included updates to my graphics card and the Wacom tablet.

    What you see in the devices tab, is that it uses.

    And I think it is without doubt the Dell factory profile for this monitor, given its name.  I suspect that it's wrong, that's why you see display problems.

    You can choose to go in one of two directions from here...

    1. you can buy a color calibration device and generate your own profile, which will replace the one you have now.  This will ensure that you have accurate colors, but I don't think anyone can guarantee that you will not see some banding.

    2. you can replace the one you have now with a "well known" generic profile (sRGB IEC61966 - 2.1) and see how it works.  This will almost certainly remove the problems you see with the color picker and color you see in Photoshop under several conditions correspond to your non-management applications colors.  What it won't do is give you calibrated color.  You might find, depending on your monitor, sRGB documents will appear more saturated color.

    Maybe you could try #2 first, experimental (costs nothing)...

    • Start - type color management, click color management when it comes to the top.
    • Devices of tab, make sure your monitor is registered at the top.
    • Click on the [] use my settings for this device check box.
    • Click on the [Add...] button.
    • Add profile sRGB IEC61966 - 2.1 and set it as default.

    After doing the above and before the test, it's a good idea to log out of Windows and back again to make sure that everything takes effect.

    Note that you can return it to the feature from before if you just uncheck the [use my settings for this box of the device.

    I'm curious to know if the sRGB profile will heal the strapping you see.

  • TSL color picker

    Does anyone know a plugin for IND allowing a TSL color picker? Really, I can't stand the color picker. This is getting tiresome having to move to PS for color sampling. I understand how works the IND color picker, but there is no reason why he cannot have at least a HSB option, especially for people who now use the IND to things like ebooks design. It's a waste of time. Plug-ins that allow effective fast HSB picking within the IND?

    especially for people who now use of IND up our design as ebooks.

    If you are looking for hexadecimal values in tools - has a Hex swatch plugin. You are still limited to 3 color InDesign for gathering spaces, but it also lets you get Photoshop forground color if the PS is running.
